Today, we are excited to announce the launch of the Effect Force Private Beta. After conducting a successful Token Sale at the end of March, we have been working extremely hard on the release of the first of our three platforms. During this time, we’ve been able to count on the tremendous support of our community, so we want to take this moment to express our thanks. We are eager to launch Effect Force with the support of our advisors Charlie Shrem, Sally Eaves, and Tony Tran, and through our partnerships with Lobster.Media and Civic.

From this moment on, almost a thousand pre-registered workers will be able to start working on millions of tasks on Effect Force. Our partner Lobster.Media has provided millions of image classification tasks that can be completed by the workers. Effect Force will run on the NEO Mainnet and workers will earn EFX tokens in exchange for completing these tasks. Our goal is to create a global platform on which anyone in the world can perform tasks in exchange for fair payment, therefore providing an alternative way of earning for millions of people.

How it works

Over four thousand workers have pre-registered for the Effect Force Private Beta. Our goal is to guarantee the stability, security, and quality of the platform, that’s why we have randomly selected more than 600 workers who can start working on the platform starting immediately and we will scale up from there. The selected group of workers have received an email from Effect.AI with their login information. After login in workers will be able to start completing tasks immediately. Don’t worry if you have not been selected yet, over the course of the beta we will allow more and more workers on the platform. This allows us to closely monitor the platform, to maximize convenience for the workers. As we allow more workers on the platform, we will also increase the amount and the variety of tasks. Eventually everybody who pre-registered will be able to perform as many tasks as they want. Pre-registration is once again open for those who were not able to sign up, however, we will prioritize everyone who signed up during the Telegram pre-registration period.

Type of task: image classification

Lobster.media is the first official Effect Force partner. They will use the platform to classify a significant part of their massive image catalog. Therefore, the first tasks listed on Effect Force will consist of image classification. Specifically, you will be determining whether an image is a selfie or not a selfie, something that is hard for automated systems to do.By using your human intelligence to complete these tasks, you help create high quality datasets, making it easier to train real AI.

Earn EFX tokens on Effect Force

By completing tasks on Effect Force workers will earn EFX tokens. The tokens are automatically stored on the worker accounts on Effect Force. We have implemented rigorous security measures to make sure the EFX is safely stored on Effect Force. But, always remember to never share your private key with anyone. EFX tokens can also be withdrawn from Effect Force and stored in any NEP-5 token compatible wallet.

Reputation Score

By performing tasks on the platform workers will automatically receive a reputation score. The reputation score of workers who correctly perform task will increase as they continue to work. A better reputation score will eventually lead to admission into higher paying tasks.

Creating opportunities in developing countries.

Finally, we are introducing Effect Force Impact Hubs. We recognize the potential of Effect Force to provide an alternative way of earning money for people in developing countries, and for people who are unable to do traditional work because of health issues, economical obstacles or simply a lack of other opportunities in the area. Therefore, Effect.AI has made impact sourcing one of its main priorities. Through Effect Force, Effect.AI creates an alternative way of earning money for people in developing countries. They are supported in this venture by none other than Sally Eaves. Sally Eaves is an innovator in the field of Machine Learning with connections at the United Nations and local governments. In collaboration with Sally and these local governments, Effect.AI is aiming to set up Effect Force Impact Hubs in key countries and locations by the end of this year, starting with Pakistan, Nepal, and Kenya. At these Impact Hubs, Workers can complete tasks under supervision of trained personnel. This creates a steady income in areas where people usually don’t have access to well-paying jobs or traditional banking systems. Effect.AI allows workers to make a living create a safe environment where they can acquire skills in the field of AI and Machine Learning. Effect.AI recognizes that this is an incredible opportunity to create lasting change in developing areas around the world.
