clearwaterdata··on Ask HN: How to approach a computer vision freelancer
This is incredibly helpful. Thank you. I definitely understand the need to have a clear understanding of the software performance, and I have many of those details already nailed down. I absolutely plan on running an MVP project first to see if trivial tech will suffice, and to get a feel for the firm/freelancer that I'm working with. It could be that my project is constrained enough we do not need the same level of sophistication as many models.

I also am entirely willing to push my project offshore, so long as I can communicate with my partner and am confident that they can deliver.

If I wanted to engage your firm, how could I get a hold of them/you for further discussion about my project details?

Thank you for these thoughts!

Using existing software through an API won’t work because I need the model to work offline.

The idea of hiring a firm is a good one - how would you answer that same series of questions when approaching a firm rather than a freelancer (cost, time frame, needed training images, technical specifications, etc)?
