What Keymakr does

Keymakr is an enterprise data annotation and labeling services company founded in 2015, with a New York corporate headquarters and Israeli operational roots. It provides human-in-the-loop annotation across computer vision modalities — bounding boxes, polygons, semantic segmentation, LiDAR, 3D point cloud, and video — and in March 2026 extended into LLM/agentic AI training data via its LLM Suite for Agent Training Data. The company's anchor technology is its proprietary Keylabs platform (launched 2022), which combines ML-assisted pre-annotation with human review and supports workflows for RLHF and synthetic data generation.

The company serves enterprise customers across 16+ verticals including automotive, healthcare, agriculture, retail, robotics, and waste management. Named logos referenced in marketing materials include Walmart, Shopify, AMD, Cognex, Siemens Healthineers, and Johns Hopkins, alongside partnership-led engagements with Recycleye (waste management) and Segments.ai (multi-sensor annotation integration). Keymakr has completed 1,500+ projects and maintains a workforce of 600-700+ in-house annotation specialists per G2 firmographic data.

Revenue mechanics are enterprise services-based, with pricing tied to annotation task volume and complexity under per-project or volume contracts. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales organized around verticals, supported by technology integrations (Segments.ai) and vertical partnerships (Recycleye). The business model is therefore a hybrid of professional services (human annotation labor) and platform licensing (Keylabs tooling), with the LLM Suite launch signaling a deliberate shift toward capturing higher-value training data engagements in the agentic AI market.
