Revenue Analysis of Data Labeling Solution and Services 2015-2021 vs. Market Outlook 2022-2032

According to Fact.MR- a market research and competitive intelligence provider- demand for data labeling solutions and services experienced an astounding 18% CAGR between 2015 and 2021. Increasing reliance on the virtual space for data collection, classification and assimilation has widened prospects for labeling solutions and services to a very large extent.

Due to the mandatory imposition of a global lockdown, prospects for data labeling solutions and services increased even further during the COVID-19 pandemic. As businesses began shifting extensively to the virtual space, there was increased reliance on machine learning capabilities, for which data labeling solutions are highly important.

With the future of the virtual place cemented firmly, it is unsurprising to discover that the data labeling solution and services industry is expected to take a turn for the better. As more enterprises incorporate advanced analytical capabilities, including big data analytics, augmented reality and IoT, prospects for labeling solutions are set to widen even further. From 2022 to 2032, demand is anticipated to surge 8.4x.

Key Data Labeling Solution and Services Industry Drivers

Extensive Reliance on the Virtual Space Augmenting Need for Data Labeling Solutions

As the 21st century progresses, business leaders and research experts have repeatedly emphasized on the role of big data analytics, blockchain technology, artificial intelligence and machine learning in shaping daily operations. As the amount of data collected keeps expanding, enterprises are discovering ways to accumulate, assimilate and analyze the same in a timely and cost-effective manner.

As the reliance on machine learning becomes mainstream, engineers are looking for ways to identify objects and data more clearly. Data labeling techniques are thus being extensively used to make this data more recognizable and understandable to research stakeholders. Moreover, these annotation tools have made it possible to easily distinguish between important and not so important data.

A growing emphasis on picture annotation is likely to improve the operations of the automotive, retail, and healthcare sectors, driving demand for data labeling technologies. However, the high expenses involved with the manual annotation of complicated photos may limit the market's growth.
