I&#x27;d endorse pretty much all of this.<p>I want to make &quot;domain adaptation as a service&quot; the key part of spaCy&#x27;s business model: you send us text, we send you a good model. Internally this will probably involve annotating part of the text, but that&#x27;s a tactical decision we&#x27;ll make.<p>I hope we can make some break-throughs that help NER be much more general than it is currently. But the current solution you describe works fine; it&#x27;s just a pain in the ass for each organization to take on. We want to have the required infrastructure and expertise set up, and make the process seamless.
