Yai365.com is a platform for automation and traceability of the overall annotation process. The platform allows several working roles to collaborate using allocated workflows of data files to move through the process while being traced in every step. In Yai24.com there are four different working roles where each role has specific access and supervision rights to manage the progress under its scope.
