ActiveTigger is a working open source annotation stack: a Python backend and React frontend that computes embeddings, offers a collaborative (asynchronous) annotation interface, runs an active learning loop to pick items, fine tunes BERT-like encoders (400 MB-ish bases on lab GPUs) and reports metrics like F1 for a held-out test set. It already annotates tens of thousands of texts via export and inference, supports on‑prem GPU deployment, topic modeling, LLM-as-a-service queries for scaling, and a Python client for automation.
