What are crowd workers?

Crowd workers are individuals who perform small, often digital tasks remotely via online platforms. These tasks can include data entry, image labeling, surveys, content moderation, and more, usually as part of a larger project that is broken down into smaller components. Crowd work is typically flexible, allowing workers to choose their assignments and work hours. Payment is generally based on the number or complexity of tasks completed rather than a fixed salary. This type of work is central to the 'gig economy' and is facilitated by platforms like Amazon Mechanical Turk, CrowdFlower, and others.

Understanding these differences helps job seekers find roles that match their skills and work preferences.
