What “microtasking” means
WikipediaMicrowork is a series of many small tasks which together comprise a large, unified project completed by many people over the Internet. Microwork is considered the smallest unit of work in a virtual assembly line. It is most often used to describe tasks for which no efficient algorithm has been devised and require human intelligence to complete reliably. The term was developed in 2008 by Leila Chirayath Janah of Samasource.

every network with a public tag surfaceFollow #microtasking straight to each platform’s own tag page. Where a platform publishes open data we measure it above; the rest lock their numbers behind paid APIs, so we link rather than guess.
Every number above is measured from a named public API at the shown fetch time. Nothing is estimated or extrapolated. Platforms that lock their data behind paid APIs are not shown. Agents: the same numbers, as JSON, at /api/hashtags/microtasking
