Appen helps in earning some extra money by completing some simple tasks. It gives the experience in performing data annotation, search engine evaluation etc. It also helps train artificial intelligence and improve machine learning technologies.

Extremely easy-to-use interface

  • September 08, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Appen is a practical and valuable platform for running data processing projects involving human participants. The interface is easy to understand, so onboarding is a breeze. Appen is great for tracking and storing data.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my experience, Appen's servers have gone down about once a month because they are getting too many requests. Crashes can delay the completion of time-sensitive projects. Given the volume of users on Appen's servers, the company should better equip servers to deal with high usage to prevent frequent crashes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Appen to process large amounts of data. Appen has a straightforward interface, so I don't get stressed out trying to understand the platform's functionalities. Appen reliably tracks historical data.

Appen is misleading.

  • September 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I initially joined Appen hoping it would work as a side gig proofreading during the pandemic; however, there is much more that goes into the process of finding or receiving work with Appen than I had initially understood.
What do you dislike about the product?
To make any sort of an income using Appen, a person would need to be more dedicated than the reward would pay off. I also receive too-frequent emails from them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Appen allows individuals to potentially make money working remotely, though I was not able to realize this benefit.

Appen is one of the crowdsourcing websites which pays real money and the payment is made on time.

In appen you can get projects like audio transcription, AI image data collection, Search engine evaluation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Best Legit crowdsoursing site ever

  • September 11, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has a lot of tasks available every now and then. I had fun doing GPT with figure eight.I was waiting for tasks that pays better and much easier to do. The pay differs on sites whether it is Ysense or Neubux.
What do you dislike about the product?
It pays low on Ysense. Really low like some tasks are 0.01 per task, and the task takes about 45 minutes to finish. So imagine doing this for 8 hours a day, how much would you earn? It might take you forever to earn a dollar. But again it depends if it is Ysense, Neobux or FigureEight itself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have ever been hard working just to earn a dollar, though there are tasks that pays 0.4-0.35 dollars per task but they knock only once, and you have to take them once they come your task wall. I also realized that data annotation feels great to do so I searched for FigureEight competitors to see whose best and make Data Annotation with them too.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a legit GPT task, Figure Eight is the best. Just make sure the first time you register and you see a lot of tasks, do them all so you can advance to level 3 that has higher chances of getting high paying task.

Figure Eight, best artificial intelligence platform

  • September 08, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Figure Eight is one of the most recognized artificial intelligence and automatic learning platforms for having a good valuation by the companies that hire it to receive their services. This software is recognized by a wide range of people worldwide who serve as contributors to it, where they provide through tasks of various kinds information that is becoming learning algorithms that are used for better search engines, help customers or in the development of autonomous cars.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the disadvantages that this software has is that its measures of penalization to some users of the same are unfair. Many times we have seen the case of users who perform tasks in the best way on the portal, and this penalizes them with a flag that prevents them from performing level tasks or a deactivation that prevents them from performing tasks completely on the portal. Another negative feature is that on many occasions the author of a certain task performs the work badly, so that the contributor when performing it, is expelled, lowering that way the accuracy, which may affect for future jobs. Another disadvantage is that many of the works are eliminated for certain countries, which limits the users of these countries to receive this great help offered by the portal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This software has helped me a lot in the part of the language to identify certain linguistic characteristics that are expressed in texts. also, in the economic part has been an important factor because through this portal I have been able to receive an extra income for tasks performed in it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
My recommendation for those who use figure Eight is to make an effort to do a good job, read the instructions well, so that you can avoid setbacks by a possible flag or deactivation of the portal.
