The online survey ran for 41 days (July 5 to August 14, 2020). A total of 571 respondents from more than 50 countries completed the survey. This survey was conducted in collaboration1 with John Snow Labs.

NLP cloud services: 65% of respondents working at companies further along the NLP adoption curve use at least one of the NLP cloud services we listed (Google, AWS, Azure, and IBM).
