FAQ — SadiGroup | AI Data Services Questions Answered

Question 1

What types of AI training data does SadiGroup provide?

Accepted Answer

SadiGroup delivers a full spectrum of AI training data services: voice and audio collection, image and video capture, text corpora, data annotation (image, video, text, audio), linguistic services (transcription, translation, localization), AI model evaluation and RLHF, and enterprise crowd recruitment. Whether you need a single dataset or an end-to-end data pipeline, we can scope and deliver it.

Question 2

How many languages do you support?

Accepted Answer

We currently support 150+ languages, with particular depth in Arabic dialects (MSA, Gulf, Levantine, Egyptian, Maghrebi, and more), African languages, South and Southeast Asian languages, and European languages. If you need a language not listed on our site, contact us — our global contributor network often extends beyond our published coverage.

Question 3

What quality standards does SadiGroup apply to its data?

Accepted Answer

Every dataset goes through our 4-tier QA pipeline: contributor-level validation, peer review, specialist linguistic review, and final client-facing QA. We maintain a 98.7% average accuracy rate and a sub-0.3% defect rate across all deliveries. We can also provide custom QA protocols aligned to your model's specific requirements.

Question 4

How do you handle data privacy and security?

Accepted Answer

All client data is handled under strict NDAs, GDPR-aligned data handling practices, and enterprise-grade access controls. Contributor data is anonymised by default. We do not use client datasets for any purpose other than the contracted scope, and all data is securely deleted or returned at project close unless otherwise agreed.

Question 5

Can SadiGroup scale to large-volume or time-sensitive projects?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our contributor network of 10,000+ verified specialists across 40+ countries is designed for rapid mobilisation. We have delivered multi-million-unit annotation projects and large-scale voice collection campaigns within tight enterprise timelines. We recommend discussing your volume and deadline requirements during the initial scoping call so we can confirm capacity and assign a dedicated project team.

Question 6

What is the typical project timeline from inquiry to delivery?

Accepted Answer

Timelines vary by project scope. A standard annotation or transcription project typically moves from signed agreement to first delivery within 5–10 business days. Large-scale data collection campaigns may require 2–4 weeks for contributor recruitment and onboarding. We provide a detailed project timeline as part of every proposal.

Question 7

Do you offer custom annotation schemas and task guidelines?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We work with your team to develop annotation guidelines, labelling taxonomies, and quality rubrics that match your model's architecture and training objectives. We can also adapt existing guidelines you have developed internally. Our linguistic and QA teams review all guidelines before contributor onboarding to ensure consistency.

Question 8

How do I request a quote or start a project?

Accepted Answer

The fastest way is to submit a Client Inquiry via our Request a Quote page. Include your service type, language requirements, estimated volume, and timeline. A member of our team will respond within one business day to schedule a scoping call and prepare a tailored proposal.

Question 9

Can SadiGroup sign an NDA before we share project details?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and we encourage it. We are happy to execute a mutual NDA before any detailed project discussion. Contact us at sales@sadigroup.co to request our standard NDA or to share your own template for review.

Question 10

What file formats do you deliver data in?

Accepted Answer

We deliver in the format your pipeline requires — JSON, CSV, XML, WebVTT, ELAN, Praat TextGrid, CONLL, and custom schemas are all supported. For audio and video, we deliver in WAV, MP3, MP4, or other formats as specified. We can also integrate directly with your data management platform or annotation tool if preferred.

Question 11

Who can register as a SadiGroup vendor or contributor?

Accepted Answer

We welcome native speakers, certified linguists, transcriptionists, translators, annotators, voice talent, and subject-matter experts from any country. The key requirement is native or near-native proficiency in the language(s) you register for, plus the ability to follow detailed task guidelines accurately and consistently.

Question 12

How do I register as a vendor or contributor?

Accepted Answer

Complete our Vendor Registration form on the website. You will be asked to provide your language background, service areas, experience level, and availability. Once submitted, our vendor management team reviews your profile and reaches out within 3–5 business days with next steps, which may include a language proficiency assessment or sample task.

Question 13

What types of tasks are available for contributors?

Accepted Answer

Tasks vary by project and include: audio recording (reading prompts, spontaneous speech), transcription, translation, text annotation, image and video labelling, AI model response evaluation, and linguistic validation. Most tasks are remote and self-paced within defined project windows.

Question 14

How and when are contributors paid?

Accepted Answer

Contributors are compensated per task, per hour, or per project depending on the engagement type. Payment is processed monthly via bank transfer or digital payment platforms. Rates are communicated clearly before any task begins, and there are no hidden deductions. We are committed to fair compensation that reflects the skill and effort involved.

Question 15

Do I need professional qualifications to participate?

Accepted Answer

Not always. Many tasks require only native language proficiency and attention to detail. However, some specialised tasks — such as medical transcription, legal translation, or advanced linguistic annotation — do require verified professional credentials. Required qualifications are always stated clearly in the task brief.

Question 16

Can I work on multiple languages or service types?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you have proficiency in multiple languages or skills across different service areas (e.g., both transcription and annotation), you can register for all relevant categories. You will be matched to tasks that fit your verified profile.

Question 17

How does SadiGroup ensure fair treatment of contributors?

Accepted Answer

Contributor ethics are a core value at SadiGroup. We provide clear task guidelines, fair pay rates, timely payment, respectful communication, and transparent feedback. We do not use contributor work for purposes beyond the stated project scope, and we maintain confidentiality of contributor personal data in line with GDPR principles.

Question 18

What equipment or software do I need to participate?

Accepted Answer

Most tasks require only a computer or smartphone with a stable internet connection. Audio recording tasks may require a quiet environment and a decent-quality microphone (built-in laptop or phone microphones are often sufficient for standard tasks; higher-quality equipment may be required for studio-grade recordings). Specific requirements are always listed in the task brief.

Question 19

Is there a minimum commitment or exclusivity requirement?

Accepted Answer

No. SadiGroup operates on a flexible, project-by-project basis. There is no minimum hour commitment and no exclusivity clause — you are free to work with other platforms simultaneously. We do ask that once you accept a task, you complete it to the agreed standard and within the agreed timeline.

Question 20

Who do I contact if I have a question about a task or payment?

Accepted Answer

For task-related questions, contact your assigned project coordinator directly. For payment enquiries, reach out to vendors@sadigroup.co. We aim to respond to all vendor queries within one business day.
