Feature Comparison
Avala vs V7
V7 is a 2D video and image annotation tool — it stops at 2D. Avala is independent infrastructure for Physical AI: closed-loop training-data infrastructure for 4D multimodal Physical AI, run on your data. Full sensor fusion, 4D Gaussian reconstruction, customer-trained auto-label models, and a 15,000+ registered coworker network.

Feature Comparison
| Feature | Avala | V7 |
|---|---|---|
| Platform Type | Independent infrastructure connecting sensor ingest, visualization, labeling, QC, dataset releases, training handoff, and feedback workflows | AI-powered image and video annotation platform with auto-labeling |
| Data Types Supported | Sensor-native workflows for synchronized camera, LiDAR, radar, video, and supporting telemetry | Image and video — no LiDAR, radar, or multi-sensor support |
| Annotation Capabilities | Human and AI labeling across 2D, 3D, and temporal sensor workflows with configurable quality control | 2D auto-annotation with model-assisted workflows for images and video |
| Workforce / Human-in-the-Loop | Optional managed operations connected to the same dataset records and quality workflows | Software-only — no managed annotation services |
| Security & Compliance | Data boundaries, access controls, retention, and deployment requirements scoped with each program | SOC 2 certified, EU data residency available |
| Deployment Options | Avala Cloud today; BYOS keeps source data in your bucket and region. Dedicated deployments on request. | Cloud-hosted SaaS platform |
| Physical AI Specialization | Purpose-built for the Physical AI data-to-model loop, from sensor ingest through drift and re-labeling | No Physical AI focus — 2D image/video tooling without spatial or sensor fusion capabilities |
| Pricing Model | Scoped to data, workflow, infrastructure, and optional operations requirements | Per-seat SaaS pricing, usage-based for auto-labeling compute |
Why teams choose Avala
Key Differentiators
Beyond 2D into true 4D
V7 handles 2D image and video annotation but cannot process LiDAR, radar, or multi-sensor data. Avala's 4D Engine handles full sensor fusion with temporal tracking across all modalities — critical for autonomous systems.
15,000+ registered coworkers
V7 gives you software. Avala gives you software plus 15,000+ registered coworkers with domain expertise in automotive, robotics, and industrial data. Get production-ready labels, not just a labeling tool.
Infrastructure from ingest to model handoff
V7 focuses on the annotation step. Avala covers the full data lifecycle — ingestion, curation, annotation, quality assurance, and model feedback loops — as a unified production pipeline.

Why teams choose Avala
Teams choose Avala over V7 when they outgrow 2D annotation and need multi-modal sensor fusion, managed annotation services, and infrastructure from ingest to model handoff built for Physical AI at production scale.
