The record

What it does: Potato is an open-source platform for annotating text, audio, images, video, and qualitative data.
Task setup: Annotation tasks are configured in YAML, and the maker says building an annotation interface requires no programming.
Annotation types: The homepage lists 61 annotation types, including classification, spans, bounding boxes, polygons, video, audio, and qualitative coding.
Agent evaluation: Potato supports annotating multi-agent teams on an interaction graph and evaluating computer-use, voice, and video agents.
AI features: AI assistance includes label suggestions, keyword highlighting, quality checking, pre-annotation, explanation generation, and consistency checking.
Integrations: Listed integrations include OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Ollama, HuggingFace, OpenRouter, vLLM, YOLO, and LangChain.
Crowdsourcing: Potato documents integrations with Prolific and Amazon Mechanical Turk, including participant tracking and quality or approval workflows.
Data formats: The integrations page lists imports for text, image, audio, video, and PDF or HTML documents, and exports including JSON, JSONL, CSV, CoNLL, Hugging Face, COCO, and YOLO.
Privacy and deployment: Potato runs locally or on users’ own servers; the maker says this keeps data on their infrastructure and supports offline use.
License: Potato is released under GNU GPL version 3 or later and may be used, modified, redistributed, and used commercially, subject to the license terms.
Installation: The maker’s quick start instructs users to install Potato with pip and requires Python 3.7 or later.
