ABOUT CENTAUR LABS
Founded in 2017, Centaur Labs is a Boston-based company that is advancing medical AI through trusted, accurate medical data labeling. Its network of experts provides labels on a wide range of data formats, including medical images (X-ray, CT/MR, dermatology, ophthalmology, pathology), videos (surgical videos, ultrasound), text (scientific text, medical notes), and audio recordings (heart and lung sounds). Rather than relying on the opinion of a single expert, Centaur intelligently combines opinions from multiple experts, who are both trusted and rewarded based on their performance. The company participated in the Y Combinator Winter 2019 cohort and its investors include Matrix Partners, Accel, Susa Ventures, and Global Founders Capital.
