We're approaching the problem differently than both of those companies, and over time I think the difference will be more and more apparent.
Scale is vertically focused, currently focusing on image annotations and audio transcription. This allows us to provide extremely high accuracy and an ever-improving developer experience by investing heavily in tooling, automation, and screening. It's very difficult to do that as a more generic crowdsourcing service.
We're also entirely developer-focused as a company. Our users are engineers, and we have a singular focus to provide the best experience in using Scale to build more complex products.
