This week we are joined by Mark Koh of Supa, which provides a self-service data annotation platform to enable machine learning models.
This was a great conversation as we go straight into the last mile problem of data analysis in AI/ML models, data annotation. We hear how he has built a customer base and uses thought leadership as lead generation. We wrap up on how a data company incorporates data into their own operations.
I’d love to know what you took away from this conversation with Mark Koh. If you’d like to be considered as a guest or have someone that you’d like to hear me speak to, drop me a message.
