Media annotation research tools

This cluster comprises desktop applications for annotating and coding qualitative data from audio, video, and text, with a focus on linguistic and other research use cases. The dated history spans from August 2017 to October 2023, with eight single-month entries each containing one product, indicating a sparse and irregular entry pattern over that period. Traction leaders are elan-bin, elan-simple-bin, and advene, all with 0 stars, showing minimal observable activity.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 6 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
