AWS, Google, and Azure primarily offer infrastructure, requiring IT professionals to utilise this infrastructure to build the systems needed by businesses. Appen, on the other hand, is more like a solution provider, offering services that businesses can use directly. Meta has released the open-source Lama 3, but most businesses do not hire programmers to develop it themselves as this is not cost-effective and sustainable. They prefer to choose solution providers like Appen to meet their needs.

Snowflake and Databricks provide data lake services. Appen's YouTube demo video demonstrates how to perform annotation directly on Databricks. This solution allows enterprises to keep their data without the need for migration, ensuring greater privacy.

With 30 years of experience, dealing with the impact of LLM might not be particularly useful anymore. What remains valuable are the established customer relationships and the expertise in customer service. For crowd workers, Appen stands as a trusted brand ensuring they receive payment for their work.
