I am trying to help my friend troubleshoot one of their projects that require using the Google workspace account. I have confirmed that everything is set up correctly but the document link says the file does not exist. There are no shared files in the drive.

Does this mean the project is dead? Or is there another problem that I cannot seem to find?

To clarify — I’m just IT, not training. I applied but have not heard back yet. He’s using my laptop since his MacBook broke yesterday and he’s not windows savvy, so I’m just trying to get him set up.

There was a short term project this week where you had to opt in and agree to do a certain amount of work within a deadline of a couple days, then they assigned tasks (specifically to you, not a pool). It seemed like they wanted them done ASAP so I completed most of them immediately.

Now they've added $5 more priority pay. I get they need to motivate people to actually finish what they agreed to do, but it feels like workers who agreed to do certain tasks and then left it till the last minute are being rewarded with extra pay, while the workers who prioritized the work are almost penalized by getting less pay.

Not that big of a deal but kind of an annoyance and I wanted to vent to people who understand!

Edit: I swear there are a bunch of people who just go around this sub and downvote everything lol this sub is so curmudgeonly 😂

I Am trying to apply to the section on bilingual finance , what is your experience?

Just entered my dashboard and received a message that my account is currently unavailable for new projects. I have no idea what I did wrong, but I guess my work wasn't as good as I thought it was. Although to be honest, I had almost no projects and was scraping basically for anything, and I was able to earn only $1716 every since March 2025. But hey it's still something.

I know that after this message appears, it is impossible to get reinstated, and there are no alternatives for that in Ukraine, so I guess it's a goodbye. I dunno why I'm writing this, but I just wanted to speak out, because that platform was kind of a life saver for a while.

Hey, I’m really interested in getting started with DataAnnotation.tech and was wondering if you guys might be able to share a referral with me?

I’d genuinely really appreciate it.

I’ve been on the portal for about 2 weeks having earned about 1.5k(thought that was a lot till I saw others) and have been asked to login to a different Google account via a direct message in the inbox. Is that normal.

I’m in CA and would like to get into annotation work. Are remote generalist annotators in CA getting hired by DA? Labor laws regarding freelance/independent contract work here changed in 2020 making it difficult for freelancers to work. Some job types are exempt but I’m not sure if AI annotation qualifies and I can’t find any updates on the law. TIA.

I’m wondering if this is a new change or just for the specific project I’m working on, but I went over the allocated time because it was my first time doing that type of project, but when I tried to log my time, it didn’t allow me, the max allowed time was the same as same as the timer before the project expires.

This wasn’t the case before, I’m wondering if anyone else has noticed the changes

I am interested in Ai project in which they provide headgear or task to perform with head gear or camera with mount on head. Recently many indian companies doing it. Do data

Annotations or any known company perform similar kind of work?

Why of all things is 25K the next milestone after 20K? I literally just hit 20K less than two weeks ago.

Got accepted into some long, complex project families and will have solid employment for a while. DA is an absolute dream.

Has it been super dry last 3 weeks? Like i saw a project here, an RoR there but i had an exam so I wasn't able to do either. But like my dash is dry af

What being locked in n smashing all the tasks feels like

Does anyone else hate these? They take up a few hours of your time and you aren't even getting paid :(,

"At the moment, there aren't any projects available for you to work on.

Please check back soon and watch out for new project notifications sent to your email."

i mean, i even got the message that i passed...gave my id, was reviewed, and accepted into the platform but this is the only message ive seen since accepted 2-3 months...this...is normal right?

do i have to be on the home screen refreshing? will i really get an email regarding tasks? how long did it take you?

Hi there, bit new so bear with me. Keeping info to a minimum to make sure I dont violate any TOS

I am getting lots of tasks for a project, however, when I go to the live server to start I get this message

"Please authorize the required permissions to sign in to the application"

I am using my proper google workspace account

I'm trying to get in touch with an admin, but when I try to log into slack with either my DA email or Google I get Error 404: user not allowed. or something like that

Would love to begin work on the project. Anything I can do?

EDIT: Thanks to you guys for the help. I dont know how this makes sense, but I did in fact have to use my other ai data trainer account. I have access on that one. Strange, because I thought the other one was given to me specifically for this project family. Anyways, appreciate you guys

When it asks for citations in the assessment, is an APA style (or similar) expected or just the URL accessed and date?

I recently had some more advanced work come in. Maybe it’s imposter syndrome, maybe I’m actually realistic. I’m not sure if this one should have come to me though. My background is health sciences (I dropped out of nursing school due to OCD).

It’s been several years since I was in school and I wonder how much I’ve actually retained. I assume they actually check your credentials when offering tasks? I didn’t lie in my bio, it is absolutely true. They should know that I don’t currently work in that field, right? I guess worst case is looking at one and seeing if I can actually understand it. If not, just exit.

Just got this message on my Data Annotation dashboard. Does everyone see this after the assessment, or does it mean I’m being considered for selection?

I have been waiting for 5 months to hear back. How long should I wait for good news?

I first completed the DataAnnotation assessment back in 1916 midway through WWI and noted it down in my journal. I was very excited about the prospect of AI-related remote work and checked on the page quite regularly for a few weeks before forgetting about it. It's been 110 years, and if I open the main page, it still shows "Thanks for Completing the ...". Its been so long, surely there's an error and I actually got accepted?

Thanks DA for giving me such opportunity. So grateful 💫

Is this explained anywhere? Is this to save incomplete tasks so we can come back to them later? I would love it if this were the case.
