Operational Impact
By leveraging Snorkel Flow’s Data-centric Foundation Model Development workflow, Pixability was able to create a model in weeks instead of months. This not only accelerated their product roadmap by several months but also unlocked new capabilities that will help them provide deeper insights and improved services to their customers. The programmatic approach to labeling data in-house gave the Pixability team greater control over their NLP training data creation and rapid iteration, freeing the capacity to expand to more use cases. The increased granularity of video classification, from broad categories like 'sports' to more specific ones like 'basketball' or 'hockey', allows Pixability to better place their customers’ ads on the most suitable YouTube content, thereby improving the return on customer video ad spend and satisfaction with Pixability’s services. | |
