About shotwell.ai
Summary
shotwell.ai annotates robotics training video data for teams building robot policies. It segments long operation videos into discrete steps, detects failures at each step, and returns labeled datasets within 24 hours, replacing manual QA review and ad-hoc annotation pipelines. Each subtask gets precise sub-second timestamps, failure verdicts, and attribute descriptions, turning manual review into a queryable dataset.
