Case Study: RightShip speeds up PDF labeling 3× with HumanSignal’s Label Studio Enterprise

RightShip speeds text-heavy PDF labeling 3× with HumanSignal

RightShip, a global maritime risk management organization, struggled to extract value from unstructured text-heavy PDF inspection reports. Their previous method of using spreadsheets for data labeling was inefficient, time-consuming, and did not scale, requiring extensive coordination with subject matter experts. To unlock this data for their AI systems, they turned to HumanSignal and implemented its Label Studio Enterprise platform.

HumanSignal provided a centralized solution with Label Studio Enterprise that offered a more intuitive interface for annotators. This new workflow reduced the average time spent on text-heavy labeling tasks from 15 minutes to just 5 minutes per task, a 3x improvement. The solution also significantly reduced coordination overhead and created a repeatable, scalable process for generating high-quality training data, giving RightShip greater operational visibility and consistency.
