Release notes

App

  • Auto-segment 2.0, powered by Meta's Segment Anything model, helps you draw draw segmentation masks much faster in the image editor. To use this new feature, you can use:
    • Hover-and-click: When you hover over your image in the editor, Labelbox highlights the object underneath the cursor. Select the highlighted object to create a segmentation mask.
    • Box mode: Draw a bounding box over an object in the image to automatically create a segmentation mask over the object.
  • You can now use a brush tool to draw segmentation masks in the image editor. You can adjust the size and shape of the brush.
  • Our new LLM data generation editor lets you prepare a dataset of prompts and responses to fine-tune large language models (LLMs).
  • The Performance dashboard has been improved to be more reliable and offers more metrics.
    Note: Performance dashboard updates are being rolled out gradually. If you do not see the changes at this time, check again in a day or two.
