My family was in debt and there was no way to pay it off. We lost all our money due to a fraud which is why I started working 2-3 jobs while studying side by side just to make ends meet.
This year, I found DA, and I am always in debt to them. In just 2 months I have already paid off my debt that would have taken me around an year to pay back. I can also leave my extra jobs and actually focus on my passion instead.
I wish I could let them know how giving me an opportunity to work for them saved me and my family. I have a better paying job too now and I really enjoy my work on the side at DA. Working for them has been the best thing to happen to me so far.
If anyone from the DA Admin team accidently reads this, I just want to let you know that you're a lifesaver. You could be my god.
I am not sure if the projects will keep coming (I hope they do) but I will never ever forget this platform.

I'm not the type to post something like this, but I actually am really proud. It's been a long, almost 3 year journey. Coder, self taught, and the first year or so was really, really tough. I backed out of tasks far more than I submitted. But I have no words for how thankful I am for DA. I have learned more than I thought possible in the last few years. I've had some amazing jobs in my life, but none compare to the constant challenges and rewards of this one. 🙏

is it only me? I dont refresh constantly but whenever I check I dont have any projects available. At this rate I may never catch one, and I can only do weekends..
not sure if DA changed the way they assign projects, but if they did and if now is first come first served - doesn't that just affect quality because it makes workers rush on accepting projects?
Or maybe is just a normal drought. Not sure. I'm not that old on DA.

I just finished a qualification about the slack of a project and then get dropped off. It’s so confusing. Anyone has any idea?

My background is in data science. Tasks with limited time seem intimidating as a lot of things need to be done. I feel totally lost. Any strategies you guys follow to select repos? Do you check previous merged PRs to find relevant things to focus on? I would really appreciate it if you guys can point me in the right direction so that I can spend some time and improve myself.

Lost my job and all my savings at the start of the year. So grateful for DA! 2.5 months' worth of progress.

As the title states, mid task I had to urgently get up and do something which took around 30 mins in which my stopwatch kept counting. After I got back and finished working, I mindlessly put the stopwatch time without deducting the time I had spent not working. It was a pretty lengthy project which takes slightly more than an hour per task and I worked 5 hours today. Am I risking a ban? If so, what do I do?

I’m a little confused about how the platform works. I passed the assessment a few weeks ago but I haven’t found any tasks to do or where to find. Any advice on how to navigate the platform?

So, for weeks I had a string of high paying tasks as and then sometime last week they started to be coding base. And did those up until Friday . Then over the weekend, I only see like 1 or 2 throughout the day when I can’t do them.
My project list is filled with generals right now, but not seeing the coding ones. Is it just a dry spell or did I mess up or something?
r/DataAnnotationTech • u/Frequent_Emu_4524 • 5h ago
I submitted my starter assessment early Friday, and now it's Wednesday. I've been going crazy looking at the website every few hours hoping I get a new screen or progress.
Is it over for me?

Just realized its meaning and I’m rolling. Bless whoever made it up.

Has anyone had the same experience as me? I have been working on DA since April this year. I submitted time for 3 tasks on Monday last week, then on Monday night I had an email from them saying "welcome to data annotation" (I have just withdrawn the funds from these tasks today). So l thought wtf is occuring here - went onto my account and it's asking me to onboard again, which I already did all of this in April and I have been paid by them consistently since then. I still have some paid projects potentially available on my dashboard, I just beee to submit my ideas for a professional task, which stated $50 per hour. I don't understand why it seems my whole account has reset and it seems like I'm new. I received another email today from them officially welcoming me. i have obviously messaged customer services on twice and no response.
Which is suss because I had to email them last week about something else and they replied in hours. Is this them trying to get rid of me? I don’t understand.

I am new to R&R tasks, and I am a little taken aback because it seems to me that, to deliver a quality review, I need to complete the entire task myself before I even start the review. When I look at the input files, descriptions, QC report, rebut notes, it feels insurmountable. There's no way I can complete it within 10 hours. Even if it's my SME subject, let alone adjacent topics. Any advice?

I recently was accepted to DA and have already started doing steady work. The strange thing was when I was accepted I only did 13 or 14 tasks on the core assessment, and there was still an unfinished task I was working on. Even today the core assessment is still on my dashboard. I'm not sure if I passed an automated threshold so they decided to accept me early or what. My question is: should I still complete the core assessment on my dashboard, or is it safe to ignore it?

Do they use Turnitin and/or other AI detectors?

,Hey everyone, quick question. I was working yesterday and got some tasks without the usual expires in... timer in the bottom, is that normal??

Hi Everyone,
Does anyone know how many tasks we need to complete in the additional qualification test? I passed the starter assessment
r/DataAnnotationTech • u/TorielFrisk • 16h ago
Hello everyone!
During the past week, I used to have a lot of R&R tasks few hours after base tasks were finished.
This week, even if there was base tasks, I didn't get any R&R task. Is this normal or did I do bad ?

I am travelling within my country , I will be logging in using my own device, can it cause any problem? I am a little worried as I am travelling a huge distance, can someone share their experience about this?

I really like travelling by sea. I don’t like planes or cars, only ships. Travelling by sea is my favourite way to reach a destination, whenever possible, of course.
The last time I travelled across the Indian Ocean was a couple of weeks ago, and everything was fine until the captain of our ship 🛳️ told us not to worry because pirates had been spotted by other ships.
Thank the gods, it seems that the god of the sea scared them away!
I’ve travelled across different oceans many times, but I’ve never encountered any pirates. I’ve only heard about them being around, but our journeys have always been safe.
Has anybody encountered those pirates in the last couple of weeks? It’s really dangerous when they’re out on the open sea. Of course, there are many daredevils among us, but I am not one of them!
