>Getty was looking for vendors to tag photos they’d acquired when they bought iStockphoto. Machine learning can handle a lot of the image recognition, but images of celebrities from different angles or with shadows needed to be processed by a human.

How does one find out about such vendors who are looking for contractors to do the work? Is there some B2B board for the tender process?

Samasource has its own sales team. It's not designed for tiny self-serve projects, but it completes projects for larger organizations, including quality assurance.
