How teams use our human infrastructure to ship better models, faster.

Agent Evaluation · Benchmark Data

Terminal-Bench 2 Benchmark Program

1,000+ tasks created · 900+ accepted
Challenge

As frontier models grew stronger, simple coding benchmarks stopped providing meaningful evaluation signal. The need shifted from "can the model produce the right answer?" to "can an agent investigate a realistic environment, plan, execute, debug, and produce a verifiably correct result?"

Solution

Zotus AI ran an end-to-end benchmark program — domain research, task design, Harbor-compatible environment construction, oracle reference solutions, automated verifiers, frontier-model trials, and QA. Our team of 30+ engineers and domain specialists created 1,000+ executable Terminal-Bench 2 tasks, with 900+ accepted on delivery.

Robotics · Embodied AI

Physical AI for Robotics

Production-scale motion data
Challenge

A frontier robotics lab needed high-fidelity human motion data to train humanoid locomotion policies. Existing video-based pose estimation introduced unacceptable noise.

Solution

Lab-grade marker-based motion capture with expert operators across multiple studios, delivering sub-millimeter joint trajectories with full metadata.

Foundation Models · Evals

Agentic Evaluation Pipeline

Comprehensive agent benchmarks
Challenge

An AI lab building tool-using agents needed ground-truth evaluation data — multi-step terminal tasks with verifiable outcomes.

Solution

Senior software engineers created, executed, and graded complex agent tasks spanning file systems, APIs, databases, and web interactions.

Self-Driving · Computer Vision

Autonomous Driving Annotation

Multi-sensor 3D annotation
Challenge

Pixel-perfect 3D annotations across lidar and camera streams with sub-frame temporal consistency for their perception stack.

Solution

Multi-sensor data processing with custom tooling, achieving high consensus accuracy across instance segmentation, lane markings, and 3D cuboids.

LLMs · Code · Alignment

RLHF for Code Generation

Expert preference data at scale
Challenge

High-quality human preference data from experienced software engineers for complex coding tasks.

Solution

Senior developers across multiple programming languages, delivering preference rankings and reward signals for SFT and RLHF pipelines.

LLMs · STEM · Reasoning

Math & Reasoning Verification

98% verification accuracy
Challenge

A foundation model team needed step-by-step verification of chain-of-thought outputs for competition-level math and formal logic problems.

Solution

PhD-level mathematicians and logicians annotating reasoning traces — flagging logical errors, verifying proofs, and providing corrected solution paths for reward model training.

Vision-Language · VLMs

Multimodal Instruction Tuning

Rich image-text training pairs
Challenge

A vision-language model needed diverse, high-quality instruction-response pairs grounded in complex images — charts, diagrams, documents, and real-world scenes.

Solution

Domain experts producing detailed visual Q&A, spatial reasoning tasks, and multi-turn conversations anchored to image content with pixel-level grounding annotations.

AI Safety · Governance

Safety & Red-Teaming

Structured vulnerability reports
Challenge

Rigorous red-team evaluation before a major release — adversarial testing across safety categories.

Solution

Multi-category red-team evaluations producing structured vulnerability reports and severity-scored datasets for model hardening.

NLP · Localization

Multilingual Data Program

Global coverage, fast turnaround
Challenge

High-quality instruction-following data across dozens of languages with cultural nuance and domain expertise.

Solution

Global expert network — native-speaker linguists and domain specialists — producing culturally-adapted, quality-gated datasets.
