Roboflow + Scale AI

Upload the JSON that Scale AI returns for completed annotation tasks to Roboflow, then train and deploy a model on those labels.

Scale AI sells human data labeling, with results delivered through its API as JSON task responses.

Roboflow reads Scale AI JSON for object detection: the completed task records with the image URL and a box and label for each annotation. Upload the JSON and Roboflow converts the boxes into a dataset you can version, augment and train on, or export in another format.

How to connect Scale AI to Roboflow

4 steps
  1. Collect your completed tasks

    Save the JSON responses for your completed Scale AI annotation tasks.

  2. Create an object detection project

    In Roboflow, create a new object detection project.

  3. Upload the JSON and images

    Drag the JSON and your images onto the upload page.

  4. Generate a version and train

    Generate a dataset version, then train a model such as RF-DETR.

What teams build with Scale AI

  • Train on outsourced labels

    Turn the boxes Scale AI's annotators returned into a trained model.

  • Convert Scale AI JSON to a training format

    Export the same labels as COCO, YOLO or Pascal VOC for other pipelines.

Questions

The JSON task responses for object detection, with a box and label per annotation. See the Scale AI JSON format page for the structure.

Yes. Upload each new batch to the same project and generate a new version before retraining.

Why are companies choosing Roboflow?

The end-to-end platform for vision AI: create datasets, train models and deploy to production.

  • Flexible deployment modes

    Move from a scalable cloud API to edge hardware like NVIDIA Jetson without managing complex dependencies.

  • Integrated workflow builder

    Combine multiple AI models, custom business logic and third-party integrations into one production-ready pipeline in a low-code editor.

  • Model monitoring and alerts

    Dashboards track confidence, inference time and request volume for your deployed models, and email alerts tell your team when confidence suddenly drops.
