Image Data Collection Services for Vision AI

Consent-based, real-world image datasets across categories, demographics, geographies and conditions - collected worldwide through the HaiCrowd platform.

What Is Image Data Collection?

Image data collection is the process of sourcing real-world photographs and images that train and evaluate computer vision models. The quality, diversity and provenance of those images decide how well a Vision AI model performs in production, which is why consent-based, purpose-built collection matters far more than scraped or repurposed imagery.

HaiData collects image data through HaiCrowd, our own-built, own-cloud platform. You define the exact images you need, contributors capture them with informed consent through native iOS and Android apps, every submission passes multi-level and automated quality control, and approved datasets are delivered securely to your own cloud.

Image Data Collection Use Cases

Purpose-built image datasets for the computer vision applications teams are building today.

Object Detection & Classification

Labeled-ready images of objects and products across categories, angles and backgrounds for detection and classification models.

Facial Recognition

Human and face images collected with informed consent, across diverse demographics and conditions, for face detection and recognition.

OCR & Document Datasets

Document and text-in-image datasets for OCR, handled with privacy controls for any personal or identifying data.

Retail & E-commerce Vision

Product, shelf and packaging imagery for visual search, catalog tagging and retail shelf-monitoring models.

Agriculture

Crop, plant, soil and field imagery captured across geographies and seasons for agri-vision and crop-health models.

Medical Imaging

Privacy-first collection of medical and health-related imagery, handled with consent and strict privacy controls.

Augmented Reality (AR)

Scene, surface and object imagery across environments and lighting for AR anchoring, tracking and understanding.
