Example tasks you can post
Each row is a task that has a clear input, a reviewable deliverable, and a payout you can set in advance.
| Task | What to send | Deliverable | Suggested payout |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clean and deduplicate a spreadsheet | The file, the columns that matter, and what counts as a duplicate | A cleaned file plus a change log of merged and removed rows | $25 to $80 per 1,000 rows |
| Import contacts into a CRM | An export file and the CRM field mapping | Imported records with a mismatch report | $40 to $150 per batch |
| Build a list from public sources | Your criteria, a row cap, and the required fields | A sourced spreadsheet with a link for every row | $1 to $3 per row |
| Transcribe recorded audio | The audio files, speaker names, and the format you want | A timestamped transcript | $15 to $40 per audio hour |
Suggested payouts are starting points for a first task, not platform rates. Workers receive the listed payout.
How to scope it
Four short steps that make a data entry task easy to accept, deliver, and review.
State the deliverable and the acceptance check
Say exactly what you will receive and how you will judge it. A sample row, a screenshot, or a short checklist works.
Attach the inputs
Files, access, examples, and the deadline. Missing inputs are the most common reason a task stalls.
Set a fixed payout for the first batch
Start small. The worker receives the listed payout; you pay a 1% platform fee plus a fixed 3% processing charge where checkout is configured.
Review the evidence, then approve
Compare the deliverable against the acceptance check before approving. Ask for one revision if it misses.
