Startup Idea: Script Builder for Automating mTurk Tasks

Summary for idea #3255
Startup idea to develop a script builder tool which would help users automate the multitude of micro tasks on platforms like mTurk. The tool would enable users to quickly create scripts for repetitive tasks by simply right clicking an area in the web interface and inputting a simple command. This could drastically reduce time and effort spent on micro tasks.

  1. I'm not sure how to answer this one. I do a lot of microtasks and such through sites like mTurk. I also do surveys and such on other sites.

  2. I would like it if I could have a script builder. Something that would help me to easily make scripts. I would love if I could load up a mTurk page that I wanted to make a script for, then right click on an area to edit it. For example, let's say I had to categorize whether images were 18+ or not, and the majority of those images would be. I would like it if I could right click an image and create a "script this" button then type something like "select all images" to make a script that would auto select all of the images. Then I could just deselect the ones that weren't 18+. Or another example would be if I had to determine if two images were the same or not. I would like to right click and tell it to auto select "same" and then make it so that, say, pressing the enter key would submit the hit. I'm thinking something like a big database of scripts melted into an easy to use interface.

  3. Depending on how much it would cost, I might pay for it.

  4. It would help me speed up my work time. Rather than having to look for a script to do it or creating one myself at a painstakingly slow speed, I could just use the program to help me build a script.
