Solution

New approach uses our crowd of Tolokers to validate translations
  1. For a given phrase, each Toloker chooses the best translation from multiple options or suggests their own version
  2. New variants are added and sent to more Tolokers to check
  3. A translation is approved when the majority of Tolokers choose it
Bonus: The streamlined process performs well for running multiple projects in parallel

Business impact

  • Faster results with less effort to launch the process

“Thanks to Toloka, we’re able to run numerous data projects on a regular basis. What we gain is a dependable approach to data labeling that we utilize in machine learning models, offline metrics, and content creation and monitoring.”
