Case Study: Ancera speeds up pathogen detection model development with Voxel51’s FiftyOne

Ancera speeds pathogen detection model development by 7% with Voxel51

Ancera, a software analytics company for the poultry industry, faced challenges scaling its computer vision models used to detect pathogens like Salmonella. Their manual workflows for analyzing model performance and collaborating with non-technical microbiologists were slow, causing model deployment to stretch to over three months. This hindered their ability to quickly identify and respond to pathogen risks across the supply chain.

By implementing Voxel51's FiftyOne Enterprise, Ancera streamlined its data curation and model evaluation. The solution provided instant visibility into model predictions, enabling the team to quickly review and relabel 20,000 detections. This accelerated their feedback loop from months to days, improved model performance by over 7%, and freed up engineering resources, allowing Voxel51 to help Ancera achieve faster, more effective pathogen detection.
