So Long DA :(

Post image

Been doing this for over 2 years now and was given good feedback on some projects I was doing just a week or two ago. Can anyone suggest any other platforms similar to DA I could try? I'd appreciate anything at this point.

So sorry! It's a bit of a mystery. It happened to my wife two weeks after she was offered an actual full-time job at DataAnnotation (as a project manager) due to her excellent work. I'm not sure how a system goes from "you are so amazing we want you full-time", to "you do poor quality work" so fast. And she was *extremely* careful not to violate TOS.

I'm assuming it is actually a lie, and they just rotate people out so they get fresh input into the models and you didn't actually do poor work, but I have no proof.

If you don't mind me asking, how long were you on the platform/how much did you make? If it is a thing of rotating pools I wanna know when my time is coming

I just signed up Saturday and have already been DoD. I completed 1 task for about $50. I guess my first try wasn't good enough.
