A score type is a named question with a fixed set of answers that every annotation can carry, for example Accuracy with Correct, Partially correct and Wrong. Reviewers pick an answer and can add a reason. Score types are defined per project.

​
Define a score type

Open Settings, then Annotation Scores, and click Add new score metric.
Click Add Score Metric. Options must be unique, ignoring case, and at least one is required. The Enabled switch on the settings page turns a score type on or off. A disabled score type stays on the annotations that already carry it and disappears from the composer. Delete in the row menu removes it.

​
Score an annotation

In the annotation composer, under Scores, click a chip. Pick the answer, type a reason in Reason (optional), and click OK. A chip with a reason shows a message icon. See Annotations for the composer.

​
Where scores show up

  • The annotations inbox, in the folded Scores column and, through the Columns menu, in one column per score type. Hover over a score to read its reason.
  • The CSV export of the inbox, as Name: value (reason).
  • The annotations source when you add a trace to a dataset: score and score.reason per score type, or all reviews as one text.
  • An annotation queue, which lists the score types its reviewers use. See Annotation queues.
Also check: Annotations for how a review is written, and Datasets to store the scores with the rows.
