Kognic Platform Update | June 2026

Written by Björn Ingmansson | Jun 29, 2026 6:30:00 AM

This month's releases focus on three areas: clearer performance visibility, sharper 3D annotation tools, and a faster review loop. Here's what's new in the platform.

Track performance with more precision

Learning Curve

Learning Curve is a new view on the Quality Management page that shows how annotation quality changes over time for individual annotators and teams. You can track whether a workforce is improving, plateauing, or drifting, without manually pulling reports. Use it to spot who needs support early, and to build a clearer case for training investments.

Annotate Speed replaces Productivity

The Productivity metric has been replaced by Annotate Speed, a more precise measurement that captures how quickly annotators complete annotation work specifically. It separates annotation time from other platform activity, giving QMs a cleaner signal when comparing performance across annotators and requests.

Sharper 3D annotation

Combined line

You can now cut multiple 3D line and lane segments in a single stroke instead of drawing them one at a time. Select Combined line from the derived classes menu, draw the path, and the segments are created in one step. For dense scenes with many lane markings, this removes the most repetitive part of the workflow.

Bounding box assist

Action Assist now works for bounding box annotation in 2D/3D fusion tasks. As you annotate, the tool steps the camera view alongside your work so you stay focused on placing boxes rather than managing the viewport. The same assist pattern used for 3D lines and lanes, now applied to bounding boxes.

Rotation indicator

When rotating a 3D object in the drawing tool, you now see a clear visual indicator showing the active rotation mode. No more guessing which axis is locked mid-edit.

Connected objects redesign

The connected objects panel has been redesigned for clarity. Objects in a connected group are easier to identify, select, and manage, especially in busy scenes where multiple connections are active at once.

A faster review cycle

Combined pin and object feedback

Reviewers can now attach a single feedback comment to both a pin location and a specific object at the same time, instead of creating two separate items. The combined comment appears in both the spatial view and the object list, so annotators have full context when making corrections.

Available in: Review mode · Docs

Favorite property overlay filters

Frequently used property overlay filters can now be saved as favorites. On annotation tasks where you check the same properties every session, this removes the setup step entirely.

Available in: Annotation tool · Docs

Prelabel attention frames

When working with prelabeled data, the platform now flags frames that need closer review: typically frames where the prelabel confidence is lower or where the annotation requires human judgment. Annotators can navigate directly to flagged frames instead of stepping through the full sequence.

Available in: Annotation tool (prelabel tasks) · Docs

Coming up in July

One more thing on the way: an Annotate Speed indicator in the task toolbar. It shows your speed as a percentage of the project target while you work, so the feedback arrives in context, not in the dashboard after the fact.
