Measured Results Across Teams

Real companies. Defined ownership. Measurable outcomes.

Delegate Everything but Leadership.

Coverage Gaps Don't Show Up Until the Model Fails

You can’t build models and collect training data at the same time. But gaps don’t fix themselves.

Your Wing Data Collection Specialist works inside your pipeline so nothing delays your next training run.

How Wing Keeps Your Data Collection Moving

This isn’t a crowdsourcing platform or a public dataset. One dedicated Data Collection Specialist stays inside your pipeline, backed by Wing’s QA, supervision, and support.

Flexible, No-Commitment Monthly Support

Scale up before training sprints or model deadlines. Scale back after without losing collection context or dataset history.

Secure and Compliance-Ready

ISO 27001 compliant and SOC 2 certified. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with restricted and logged access.

NDAs and System-Level Access Control

Your Data Collection Specialist works inside your storage systems, collection tools, and pipelines with permissions you control.

Coverage That Doesn't Drop

One specialist stays on your dataset over time. If availability changes, coverage continues without losing collection context.

We Meet Challenging Talent Needs and Ensure Ongoing Success

Our resources and systems are designed to deliver tailored solutions that go beyond the basics, empowering your business to thrive.

Benefit from a dedicated Client Success Manager (CSM) who will be your single point of contact for all your needs. Your CSM will ensure smooth onboarding, provide ongoing support, and proactively address any concerns to maximize the value of our services.

We can work with you to analyze your requirements, and can launch new recruitment processes/ roles exclusively tailored to your needs, in your budget.

Your assistant isn't alone. They're supervised by both Wing's Team Captains and Supervisors.

Additionally, you can opt-in to use sophisticated artificial intelligence technology that flags potential issues ahead of time to our supervisory team, who work to proactively resolve issues.

If quality is your goal, Wing remains the best choice in this industry.

Overall, I have been very pleased with each aspect of hiring my Wing VA. We were looking at a variety of virtual assistant programs; what made us choose Wing was the fact that their talent had specific marketing experience... Working with Wing is seamless. They have a robust platform that makes communicating with our VA incredibly easy. It also helps that they act quickly and are incredibly responsive...

I've had the best VA experience so far after multiple tries. The app is easy to use to communicate and create tasks, there's loads of real-person communication, and my assistant was so capable at MANY things. He was so good that every week I found more things I could take off my plate and all for a low fixed price per month. Great value and it's taken a lot of stress off me.

Wing is an innovative software-powered interface to virtual assistants. Wing has provided a software-augmented virtual assistant service that's unique in the field. Just as important as the software platform is the quality of their assistants behind the scene. Their ability to organize and run a process of matching our needs with available talent was successful. Wing is easy to use.

Wing provides exceptional Virtual Assistant services and an accompanying productivity platform. Using Wing has been incredibly beneficial for our business, allowing us to explore some things in far more depth, or scale up some operations more effectively. Some of the benefits far exceed what you might expect from a virtual assistant in terms of capabilities and outside traditional administrative work.

What I like best about Wing is the quality and reliability of their virtual assistants. We started with one assistant and were so happy with the experience that we’ve since onboarded additional VAs. I’ve also confidently recommended Wing to colleagues and contacts looking for virtual assistant services. The combination of strong support, trustworthy assistants, and a seamless experience is what sets Wing apart for me.

Popular Questions

Yes. Dedicated data collection specialist plans are month-to-month. No contracts, no commitments, just consistent collection coverage.

Book your data collection specialist and Wing will match you within 24 to 48 hours based on your data type, domain, and collection requirements.

Crowdsourcing platforms produce volume without dedicated oversight. Wing gives you one specialist who knows your domain, your quality standards, and owns coverage consistency over time. See Wing reviews from technical teams.

Synthetic tools generate generic samples. A Wing specialist who has worked your collection project for months knows which edge cases are underrepresented and which sources produce the highest quality data for your specific model.

Your Wing Data Collection Specialist does. They don't submit raw files and stop. They audit for duplicates, verify format compliance, and confirm the batch is ready for annotation before handing off.

That stays. Your specialist learns your quality thresholds, your edge case requirements, and your collection sources. That institutional knowledge produces better datasets with every batch.

Yes. Wing is ISO 27001 compliant and SOC 2 certified. Access is permission-based and logged.

Wing covers image, audio, video, and text collection, dataset organization, coverage auditing, and pipeline preparation.

If you also need annotation, validation, or specialized AI/ML talent at scale, see Wing's AI Training page.

Wing replaces them within 24 hours at no extra cost. Context stays in Wing Workspace, so your quality thresholds, edge case requirements, and collection sources don't reset with someone new.
