Defect data for industrial inspection.
Defect detection on industrial and subsea assets means telling true defects from staining and artifacts, at high volume.

The problem
The skill is knowing what isn't a defect.
Detecting coating breakdown (corrosion and paint peel-off) on subsea and marine structures requires distinguishing true defects from staining, artifacts and masked regions.
At inspection volumes, that calibration is exactly where crowd labeling falls apart.
How io-ai helps.
Trained experts, an SOP-driven QA pipeline, and rejection-reason metadata on every task, held to over 98% accuracy.
Coating-breakdown segmentation
Tight polygons for corrosion, lifting and stripped areas.
Artifact-vs-defect calibration
Staining, lens artifacts and masks correctly excluded.
Multi-class item annotation
Tight boxes with occlusion rules, exported to YOLO v5.
Scaled delivery
Tens of thousands of tasks per workstream.
