Sift
Listen to, label and publish bioacoustic recordings.
Sift is a desktop app for labelling sound recordings. You add your recordings as datasets, then say what each event on them is: a label from your list, Nothing, or Unsure. You can run a model to find events for you, draw boxes yourself, and publish a version of your answers when they are ready.
Your audio stays where it is. Sift reads it from your computer or network and never uploads it. Labelling works offline. If you work in an organisation, Sift keeps everyone’s answers in step through your organisation’s hub.
