Find AI datasets+Order premium data annotation
Shaip collects, annotates and licenses data, with large medical and speech catalogues, and became part of Ubiquity Global Services in 2026. Dataset Finder searches and analyses existing datasets, links to the source, and lets you order custom data with credits.
Facts about Shaip come from its own website and other public sources (see sources).
Shaip licenses its own catalogue. Dataset Finder finds the open datasets you can already use, and has the rest built and annotated to your spec by a managed team.
Describe your use case in plain language and get a ranked shortlist from tens of thousands of curated datasets.
When nothing fits, order custom annotation in the same app. Your data is labelled by trained annotators and domain specialists managed by Innovatiana, not an open crowd.
Both live in one workspace: what you found, what you ordered and which model it trained are recorded per project.

Yes. Alongside dataset search, Dataset Finder sells premium custom data annotation and labelling. Innovatiana's trained annotators and domain specialists, not an open crowd, produce and label the data, supervised by a dedicated Data Labeling Manager, with a calibration round, sampling reviews, inter-annotator agreement and gold-standard checks. It covers image, video, audio, text, multimodal and medical data, 3D point clouds, and LLM fine-tuning, agent and coding data. You order self-serve with credits, with no set-up fee, or through Enterprise Sales for larger projects.
No. Dataset Finder keeps each dataset's metadata and its own analysis, and sends you to the original source (Hugging Face, an academic page, a government portal) under that source's licence. The exception is custom data you order, which the team delivers to you directly.
