Do more faster by crowdsourcing repetitive jobs.
Houdini automates the performance of manual, repetitive tasks so you get more done in less time.
Instant hiring
You could spend weeks finding and interviewing freelancers on oDesk or eLance. Houdini lets you start getting work done instantly without interviewing or hiring individual workers.
Setup in minutes, not days
Just choose one of our task templates, fund your account and go. Or create a custom template with the click of a mouse using our visual form designer.
Built-in quality control
Effective quality control is critical to crowdsourcing success. We carefully screen our workforce, then review each task using our proprietary quality control system to ensure accuracy.
Scalable, fully automated
Houdini is fully integrated with Amazon’s Mechanical Turk Marketplace, providing access to scalable, on-demand, 24×7 workforce of over 500,000 contributors.
