What is INCEpTION?

INCEpTION is a sophisticated semantic annotation platform, diligently developed by the UKP Lab at the esteemed Technical University of Darmstadt. Its primary objective is to centralize a diverse range of semantic annotation tasks into a single, user-friendly web-based platform.

This innovative open-source free platform revolutionizes the annotation process by simplifying the otherwise complex task of compiling corpora that are specifically tailored to individual tasks.

In addition, it also provides the functionality to enhance existing knowledge bases, making it an invaluable tool for researchers and academics in the field of data science and linguistics.
