Crowdsourcing Platforms
Crowdsourcing platforms are online marketplaces that connect organizations or individuals seeking help with specific tasks, ideas, or challenges to a large, diverse group of people worldwide. These platforms enable tasks such as data labeling, design, writing, or problem-solving to be completed efficiently by tapping into the collective skills and creativity of many contributors. Participants, or "crowd workers," can choose tasks that match their expertise and interests. Examples include platforms like Amazon Mechanical Turk and Upwork. They facilitate quick, cost-effective solutions while offering opportunities for individuals to earn income or gain experience.
