Rapidata vs. Prolific - Cost and Quality on the Same 300 Tasks
Collecting human data at scale usually means going through a platform that connects you to a paid crowd. Prolific has become the industry standard for this kind of work, with a…
Long reads, experiments and insights. Written by the people who build Rapidata — for the people who train models.
Existing approaches for aligning to human preferences typically make one of two compromises. Methods that directly optimize on human preferences, such as Diffusion-DPO [5],…

In the past few years, text-to-image models have evolved from DALL-E [7] to Stable Diffusion [8] to more recently Imagen 4 [9]. Early diffusion-based models struggled with simple…
What we’re learning from human feedback at scale.
Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback is most commonly associated with the final training stages of large language models like ChatGPT or Claude. It’s what helps these models…
TL;DR: We collected 1.5 million annotations from >150 thousand individual humans using Rapidata via the Python API to build a dataset of detailed human feedback for text-to-image…
Text-to-image models like DALL-E 3, Stable Diffusion, MidJourney, and Flux.1 have gained popularity for generating images from text prompts. However, benchmarking these models is…
Object detection in computer vision is a fascinating blend of mathematics, algorithms, and machine learning that allows computers to identify and locate objects within an image or…
