Surgical annotation workforce · multi-specialty

Source, train, and certify a
surgical annotation workforce

The platform runs the full annotator lifecycle: application, SOP training, a proctored certification exam scored against an SME-validated golden set, calibration, QA and clinical-SME review, and production tracking. Roles cover surgical annotators, QA reviewers, and clinical SMEs across specialties. It scales because a small clinical-SME core sets the standard and a trained annotator workforce works against it, checked at every stage.

Certification Pipeline

Eight stages from application to production

Each stage is defined in the SOP and runs the same way in any region.

Step 01
Apply
We source annotators from the right background and select for core skills: visual precision, consistency, and following a rulebook. Verify identity and pick a specialty track.
Step 02
SOP Training
Learn the annotation rulebook and visual atlas: instruments, anatomy, phases, and the visual-delineation rule.
Step 03
Certification Exam
60-minute proctored test. Identify instruments and anatomy, phases, and spot annotation errors on real frames.
Step 04
Calibration
Scored against the SME-validated Golden Set. Anti-cheat and integrity checks run throughout.
Step 05
Certified
Annotators who clear the bar are certified against the golden-set standard. Others get targeted coaching and a retry.
Step 06
QA & SME Oversight
Every batch is reviewed. QA holds the line and clinical SMEs adjudicate edge cases.
Step 07
Production
Certified annotators join a pod and annotate at quality, with output that feeds the model.
Step 08
Keep Improving
Drift control and re-calibration hold quality at scale. A career path to QA and SME.
