Put the right data work behind the AI system
Build & Integrate


AI DatasetCollection
Dataset collection fits when the AI workload needs a named population, permitted sources, sampling rules, consent evidence, and record-level provenance before preparation.


Data Annotation& Labeling
Annotation operations fit when multiple reviewers must apply one ontology, with calibrated examples, sampled quality, and adjudication tied to guideline versions.


AI Data Preparation& Validation
Prepare and validate data when an approved raw version needs reproducible cleaning, protected splits, leakage checks, and a versioned data card.


AI Data Strategy& Architecture
Data strategy fits when AI domains have incompatible ownership, access, quality, lineage, or lifecycle rules and need one accepted target architecture.


AI DataPipeline Engineering
Build the data pipeline when the source-to-delivery design is agreed but manual steps, retry behavior, and failure handling remain untested as one slice.


Data Quality, Lineage &Observability for AI
Data observability fits when quality, lineage, freshness, or drift signals exist but cannot trace an affected AI consumer to a response owner.
Why it matters
Most AI failures start upstream of the model
Coverage gaps, inconsistent labels, undocumented transformations, and stale inputs show up later as model behavior someone has to explain. We keep those upstream decisions visible instead of hiding them inside one performance number.
How we work
Treat the data contract as product work
Before collection, labeling, or pipelines scale, we define intended use, sources, owners, quality checks, and acceptance rules. Every material change stays tied to a version, a reason, and the person expected to stand behind it later.
Scope and ownership
Every material change keeps a version, a reason, and someone who stands behind it
The data contract is settled before collection, labeling, or pipelines are allowed to scale.
We define the model or evaluation task, intended use, sources, rights, schema, important slices, quality rules, and the person who can accept the result, then collect, transform, split, or label through recorded steps that keep provenance, permissions, guideline versions, and exceptions attached to the work. Coverage, duplicates, leakage, label disagreement, lineage, freshness, and task-specific checks are examined across the slices that actually matter to the use case rather than collapsed into one performance number. The accepted asset is versioned and handed over with its pipeline, controls, known limitations, operating guidance, and ownership, so the next system inherits the decisions instead of re-deriving them.
A clear chain from raw input to an accepted asset
Name the dataset and the decision
We define the model or evaluation task, intended use, sources, rights, schema, important slices, quality rules, and the person who can accept the result.
Collect, label, or prepare with a record
We collect, transform, split, or label through recorded steps, keeping provenance, permissions, guideline versions, and exceptions attached to the work.
Check the slices that can hurt you
We examine coverage, duplicates, leakage, label disagreement, lineage, freshness, and other task-specific checks across the slices that matter to the use case.
Version the result and transfer ownership
We package the accepted data asset, pipeline, controls, known limitations, operating guidance, and ownership the next system needs.
Inside our own team
Five Zeo consultants on what AI is changing in their work
Every operational consultant at Zeo has secure LLM access and training, and AI sits inside the daily work. Five of them came through our AI Bootcamp and wrote down what they expect it to change.
Selected AI sessions
Talks from Digitalzone
Three speakers look at the pace of AI change and what it means for e-commerce and content teams.
People who ship the AI systems they advise on
Agents, chatbots, and RAG systems at Zeo are built by senior engineers who keep operating them after launch. The consultants below are those builders, matched to the work this page covers.
Tools we use
The AI engineering stack behind the work
Models, retrieval, evaluation and observability are separate layers of a working system. These are the ones we build and operate on.
Models and cloud platforms
- Amazon Web ServicesFor clients whose data infrastructure already runs on AWS, this page's pipeline and feature-store work, AI Data Pipeline Engineering and AI Data Strategy & Architecture specifically, deploys inside that same environment rather than standing up a parallel platform.
Evaluation and observability
- DatadogData Quality, Lineage & Observability for AI is the service under this page whose whole job is catching a drift or freshness problem early, and Datadog's live alerting on pipeline metrics is what this page's account uses to catch that kind of issue between formal reviews.
Training, serving and MLOps
- Hugging FaceAI Dataset Collection starts by checking what candidate data already exists in public or licensed form, and Hugging Face's dataset hub with its documentation cards is the first inventory this page's account checks before committing to original collection.
- MLflowThe hero's own framing is that a decision the data work made should be traceable, and MLflow's run tracking is what AI Data Pipeline Engineering and AI Data Strategy & Architecture use to keep a pipeline change linked to its measured effect.
- DVCWhen an AI system's drift or bad output traces to a data decision, this page's hero, DVC's dataset versioning is what lets that trace actually happen, used across Data Annotation & Labeling, AI Data Preparation & Validation, and AI Data Pipeline Engineering alike.
- ClearMLAI Data Pipeline Engineering needs the pipeline itself, not just a single model run, tracked and scheduled reliably, and ClearML's orchestration layer is what this page's account uses to keep a multi-step pipeline's runs visible and repeatable.
Data, labeling and development
- LabelboxData annotation and labeling work needs labeling decisions that can be traced to a specific reviewer and checked, and Labelbox's review-queue structure makes a labeling job's quality defensible, not just fast.
- Scale AIWhen Data Annotation & Labeling scales past what a client's internal reviewers can process, Scale AI's managed workforce is the route this page's account uses to keep labeling throughput up without lowering the review bar.
- Label StudioFor sensitive datasets Data Annotation & Labeling can't send to a third-party labeling vendor, Label Studio runs the same review workflow entirely inside the client's own environment.
- SuperAnnotateWhere Data Annotation & Labeling's underlying data is visual or document-based rather than plain text, SuperAnnotate's specialized interfaces are what this page's account reaches for instead of a general-purpose labeling tool.
- Snorkel AIBoth Data Annotation & Labeling and AI Data Preparation & Validation use Snorkel's programmatic labeling to cover the bulk of a dataset with rule-based signals, reserving manual review for the cases those rules can't confidently resolve.
- FeastAI Data Strategy & Architecture has to design around the risk that a feature computed differently at training time and serving time silently breaks a model, and Feast's feature store is the concrete mechanism this page's account uses to keep those two paths consistent.
- TectonWhere a client's AI Data Strategy & Architecture calls for a fully managed feature platform rather than self-operated infrastructure, Tecton is the route this page's account uses instead of standing up and running Feast in-house.
- TonicWhere AI Data Preparation & Validation finds coverage too thin or too sensitive to use real records directly, Tonic generates synthetic cases that preserve the pattern needed for training without exposing the underlying data.
- JupyterThis page's whole premise is being able to trace a problem back to a concrete decision, and Jupyter notebooks are where that quality profiling and validation analysis actually happens across nearly every child, kept as a rerunnable record rather than a one-off check.
- MarimoAI Data Pipeline Engineering benefits from a notebook that doesn't let a validation check go stale after an upstream change, and Marimo's reactive execution model is what keeps this page's account's pipeline-monitoring notebooks honest between manual reviews.
- Great ExpectationsWhere Data Quality, Lineage & Observability for AI needs the quality bar itself written down and enforced consistently, not just monitored after the fact, Great Expectations is what this page's account uses to define those checks as versioned code that runs against every new batch, complementing Datadog's live alerting with a documented, rerunnable standard for what 'quality' means on a given dataset.
