Frequently asked questions

  • What is an LBU?
    +

    A Labelbox Unit (LBU) is a normalized unit of data in the Labelbox Platform. A data row represents an asset and all of its relevant information.


    For basic data rows like text, images, chat conversation, JSON, and Audio, an LBU is equivalent to one or more data rows depending on which Labelbox product being used: Catalog, Annotate, and Model. 

    • One (1) basic data row labeled in Annotate is equal to one (1) LBU – no matter how many labels or annotations are created, deleted, or re-labeled on that one (1) data row 

    • Five (5) basic data rows in Model are equal to one (1) LBU – no matter how many predictions or model runs are associated with those data rows

    • Sixty (60) basic data rows in Catalog are equal to one (1) LBU every month


    More complex data rows can vary in LBU consumption, please refer to the table on this page to understand how LBU consumption varies based on data row type.

  • How does Labelbox calculate LBUs?
    +

    You are billed at the end of each month based on the number of LBU your team accrues during the period. Annotate and Model LBU are only charged for new data rows used during the period. Catalog LBU are charged monthly for all data rows in Labelbox. Please refer to our pricing calculator and rate table above to estimate your monthly cost.

  • How does LBU Consumption work?
    +

    Catalog:

    LBUs are consumed when an image, text file, etc. is uploaded to the Catalog. To safeguard against unintended uploads, the Catalog offers a 7-day grace period. Any unused data rows removed within the grace period will not consume LBU. It's important to note, however, that if a data row within the Catalog is marked as 'labeled' during this grace period, it will be considered a Catalog LBU consumption, even within the 7-day grace period.


    Annotate:

    LBUs are consumed the first time one of two circumstances occur on a data row within your labeling project: 1) a human generated label or model prediction is approved as a ground truth label by a reviewer; or 2) the data row is marked as ‘done’ (without review) in the labeling workflow.


    Model:

    LBUs are consumed the first time one of two scenarios occur on a data row: 1) the labeled data row is added to a Model Run in an Experiment; or 2) model predictions are created and submitted within Foundry.

  • What happens if I delete data? How am I charged?
    +

    If you delete data rows from Catalog, those data rows will be removed from your total LBU count and you won’t be charged for those data rows in next month’s billing cycle. Note: Deleting data rows in Catalog will prevent usage of those data rows in Annotate and Model. 

  • What are some examples of LBU consumption across Labelbox products?
    +

    If I upload 5 image data rows in Catalog and label them in Annotate, how many LBU will I accrue?

    During the first month, you will be charged for 5.083 LBUs – 5 LBU in Annotate (regardless of the number of annotations or labels) and 0.083 LBU in Catalog. For subsequent months, you will only be billed for 0.0833 LBU monthly.


    If I use Model Foundry to generate predictions on the same 5 data rows (with the same data row ID) During the first month, you will be charged 1 LBU for the 5 data rows in Model, regardless of the number of predictions or model runs that data row is used in. For subsequent months, you will only be billed for 0.0833 LBU monthly.

    Learn more about LBU accrual in specific scenarios across Catalog, Annotate, and Model in our documentation.    

  • What happens if I exceed my Free tier LBU limit?
    +

    The Free tier is limited to 500 LBU per month. If you reach the Free tier limit, you will still be able to access and export all of your data in Labelbox; however, you will not be able to add any new data, labels or predictions in the current period. 


    If you wish to continue using Labelbox, you will need to upgrade to one of our paid plans. Learn more about upgrading your plan in our documentation.

  • How do I know if the Enterprise tier is right for me?
    +

    All Labelbox plans are priced based on LBU consumption. Enterprise plans require an additional platform fee in order to access additional product features, prioritized customer support, and enhanced labeling services (see table above). 


    Discounts are available for Enterprise platform customers based on annual LBU commitments. Please contact sales to learn more.

  • Does Labelbox provide labeling services?
    +

    Yes – Labelbox Boost provides on-demand labeling services through Boost Workforce and Boost Workforce Express, as well as complete AI services for tailored solutions including purpose-built interfaces, pipeline engineering and custom model development. 


    The Labelbox platform is designed to reduce the time it takes to label each asset, so our labelers are focused on completing tasks faster and on increasing the value of each label. Rather than paying for labeling work on a fixed label-cost model, you only pay for the time when labeling occurs. Labeling hours can either be pre-paid in blocks of 40 hours or billed monthly for annually contracted customers.

  • How does Labelbox help me spend less time and cost labeling?
    +

    We believe that the best way to spend less on labeling is to automate your labeling process to accelerate efforts without diminishing the quality of annotations.Labelbox provides several automation techniques, most notably pre-labeling or model-assisted labeling via Foundry, to decrease labeling costs and help your model get smarter with every iteration. Teams who use model-assisted labeling at Labelbox have seen a reduction in labeling time and cost by 50-70%.

  • How secure is my data with Labelbox?
    +

    We believe that your data should stay your data. We don’t use customer data in any tier, so you never have to worry about us using your data to power proprietary models. We go even further by allowing everyone to integrate their cloud buckets via IAM Delegated Access to keep your raw data in your own cloud storage service.If you’re interested in additional security measures, we offer add-ons such as SSO and HIPAA for our Standard and Enterprise tiers (see table above).
