πŸ“Making a request

1. Add details

Requests posted on Coll.ai can have the following fields:

  • Heading/Title - A title for the request, which will be displayed in the search resulst. This should be a short attention-grabber for users.

  • Summary - A brief summary of the request which will also be displayed in the search results.

  • Description - A full description of the request which uses Markdown syntax. Users will see this when they view the request page. We encourage you to be as detailed as possible! Feel free to use tables, links, images, and any other examples you can think of.

  • Price - Here you'll specify how much you want to pay a tasker for each row of data that you receive. The currency for the entered amount is in dollars.

  • Due date - Optionally, you can provide a due date by which taskers will need to submit requests.

At the moment, our system does not automatically turn off submissions after the deadline, or change the state of your request.

  • Unit number of rows - This is the number of rows a tasker must submit to be paid the price you specified. Defaults to 1 if unspecified. As an example, if you set this value to 5 and price is $1, you will pay $2 for 10 rows.

In general, try to make it so that the ratio of price in cents / number of rows is a whole number. This will avoid the need for rounding to the nearest cent when you purchase the data.

  • Max rows per submission - The maximum number of rows you are willing to purchase per a single submission. If left empty there will be no limit. This is useful if you want to limit the amount you would pay.
