# Which data labeling software offers the most user-friendly interfaces and shortcut tools for efficient image annotation?

&lt;p&gt;For image annotation, I’d measure clicks and keystrokes per completed object rather than asking annotators which UI they prefer. SuperAnnotate’s shortcuts could shave seconds off repetitive work, while V7 Darwin may remove the repetitive step entirely with Auto-Annotate. At scale, that distinction adds up quickly.&lt;/p&gt;
