The OORT Foundation announced the commercial launch of its OORT DataHub, a decentralized platform designed to improve data collection and labeling for artificial intelligence.
The platform, which goes live on December 11, aims to address long-standing challenges in AI development, including data transparency and integrity.
OORT DataHub promises to reduce costs and improve security for companies and researchers who rely on large-scale data for AI training by leveraging blockchain technology.
The launch marks a significant step for Oortech, which previously introduced its Edge Device, a decentralized storage node. Together, these products form the backbone of the OORT ecosystem, which aims to advance blockchain-based AI solutions.
OORT co-founder and CEO Max Li said:
“Reliable, trackable data is the next bottleneck in the AI competition, and OORT DataHub is positioned to solve it.”
Building a decentralized future for AI
The OORT DataHub eliminates middlemen in data collection and provides a more secure and participant-controlled process.
By enabling global contributions, the platform creates diverse and representative datasets that are essential for training AI and machine learning models. The integration of blockchain technology improves data integrity, minimizes tampering risks and promotes the ethical development of AI.
According to Oortech, the platform’s features reflect a commitment to promoting transparency and privacy in an area often criticized for its opaque practices.
The company plans to further expand its ecosystem with the introduction of the OORT DataHub Mini App. The app, which will launch on the Telegram platform, will make it easier for users to contribute data and participate in decentralized data collection.
The Mini App aims to tap into Telegram’s global user base, driving adoption and collaboration while strengthening the accessibility and user-friendly design of the OORT ecosystem.
Ethical AI development
The OORT DataHub illustrates a broader vision of ethical AI, emphasizing decentralized solutions that reduce costs, improve security and ensure fairness in global accessibility, in line with growing calls for more ethical approaches to AI.
As Oortech looks to scale its operations, the company invites companies and individuals to explore its platform and contribute to its mission to reshape AI development.
