Managed expert teams for AI training and evaluation data
Managed expert teams are a Kernavique Expertise service: a team of vetted professionals with a lead, delivering per deliverable rather than per hour. The lead owns quality and timing, so you manage one relationship instead of a crowd of individual experts. It is for AI labs, vertical-AI builders and data vendors running sustained training or evaluation work in legal, tax, finance or clinical domains.

Managed expert teams
What you get
A lead who owns delivery
A senior practitioner in the domain who assigns the work, reviews it and answers for quality and timing.
Deliverable units agreed up front
What counts as one deliverable, the standard it must meet and how it is accepted, written down before work starts.
Review inside the team
The lead checks work before it reaches you and returns anything that misses the standard.
A team that changes with the work
Experts added or rotated as volume and domains shift, without you running the sourcing again.

- Managing many individual experts has become a job in itself.

Who it is for
- AI labs with sustained evaluation programs
- Data and evaluation vendors delivering to labs
- Vertical-AI builders in legal, tax, health and finance
Questions buyers ask
- What does per deliverable mean in practice?
- You agree what one unit of work is, such as a graded response, a written rubric or a reviewed set, and the standard it must meet. The team delivers those units, and the lead answers for their quality and timing rather than for hours logged.
- Who is the lead?
- A senior practitioner in the domain, vetted like every other expert, who assigns and reviews the work. The lead is your single point of contact for the team.
- Can individual experts work per deliverable too?
- Yes, where the program allows it. A managed team adds the lead, the review inside the team and one relationship for all of it.
- How do you handle confidentiality and professional conduct?
- Every expert is conflict-checked against your brief, and confidentiality terms are agreed before any material is shared. The team works within the professional-conduct rules that apply to each of its members.
