Harbor's three solutions
How the Data Network, Expert Network, and Managed Programs work—and where contributors fit.
Human Intelligence Infrastructure for AI. Building the human intelligence infrastructure powering the next generation of AI.
Harbor combines real-world data acquisition, expert networks, and managed delivery through a single operational platform.
Data Network
Real-world data at scale. Harbor mobilizes distributed contributors to capture image, video, audio, wearable, and multimodal data in the environments where AI systems actually operate.
Who it serves
Organizations source targeted collection, metadata capture, quality scoring, and structured delivery through one operational layer.
Contributor work
Data Network contributors run field and studio capture programs—recording real environments, attaching metadata, and uploading through Harbor tooling.
Expert Network
Specialized human expertise. Harbor connects organizations with vetted specialists for evaluation, validation, annotation, red teaming, model review, and quality assurance.
Who it serves
Teams deploy domain experts when model quality depends on human judgment—not generic labeling capacity.
Contributor work
Expert Network contributors deliver rubric-based judgments on frontier workflows. Matching is skill-based across robotics, vision, clinical, legal, and multilingual domains.
Managed Programs
End-to-end execution. Harbor designs custom collection, validation, workforce management, and delivery programs around a client objective—from acquisition through outcomes.
Who it serves
Organizations that need Harbor to operate the full program—not only supply contributors—use Managed Programs.
Contributor work
Some Managed Programs include dedicated contributor cohorts recruited and run by Harbor operations. Most contributor work flows through Data Network and Expert Network invitations.
How contributors fit
Most independent contributors work through Data Network capture programs or Expert Network evaluation programs. Harbor issues invitations based on verified skills, capacity, and program demand—not open enrollment queues.
- Data Network — capture and upload multimodal data in approved environments
- Expert Network — evaluate, validate, annotate, and review against published rubrics
- Managed Programs — join only when Harbor operations assigns you to a managed cohort
