Playment

Playment is an Indian data labeling platform which helps machine learning engineers build high quality ground truth datasets for training and validating machine learning models. It breaks down large problems into micro-tasks and distributes among its large community of trained annotators. It works on the principle of microwork, where a series of small tasks which together comprise a large unified project, and are completed by many people over the Internet.

Annotators can browse through existing tasks and complete them in exchange for points, the points can be further exchanged for vouchers on online e-commerce sites such as Flipkart, Amazon(India) and Paytm.
