Data Entry Use Cases

What Are You Entering?

PDFs to spreadsheets, CRM population, product catalog entry, web extraction, directory submissions, contact list building — each task type needs a different source format and field spec.

PDF to Spreadsheet

Problem
Documents delivered as PDFs — invoices, price lists, catalog pages, research reports — contain structured data that cannot be used until it is extracted into a spreadsheet or database. Manual extraction in-house is repetitive and ties up time that should go to higher-value work.
With RapidWorkers
Workers open your PDF link, extract the specified data points, and enter them into a spreadsheet row per your field template. Each submission includes the completed row and a screenshot of the source PDF alongside it — you verify the entry before paying.

CRM Data Population

Problem
A CRM with incomplete or missing contact and company data produces less useful sales and outreach workflows. Populating records manually from website lookups, LinkedIn profiles, or business directories is time-consuming when done across hundreds of contacts.
With RapidWorkers
Workers open each source URL, locate the required fields (name, title, company, email, phone, LinkedIn, location), and enter them into your CRM via a provided worker account with limited permissions. Each submission includes a screenshot of the completed CRM record before payment is released.

E-commerce Product Entry

Problem
Adding products to an e-commerce store — title, description, price, SKU, category, attributes, images — one by one from a supplier catalog is one of the highest-volume, lowest-complexity tasks in catalog management. It scales poorly when done in-house.
With RapidWorkers
Workers enter each product from your supplier PDF, catalog URL, or data sheet into your store backend using a provided account. Specify the exact fields and format. Workers submit a screenshot of the completed product listing before payment — you check the entry against the source and approve.

Web Research and Extraction

Problem
Building lists from public web sources — company details, contact information, pricing pages, directory listings, event speakers — requires visiting each URL, locating specific data points, and entering them into a structured format. Volume makes it impractical to do in-house.
With RapidWorkers
Workers visit each URL you specify, extract the target data points, and enter them into your template. If a data point is not found on the source page, workers flag it with "Not found" rather than guessing. Each submission includes the extracted data and the source URL for verification.

Directory and Listing Submission

Problem
Submitting a business or product to industry directories, local listing platforms, or citation sites requires filling in the same information repeatedly across many different forms. Each form has a slightly different field structure, making automation unreliable.
With RapidWorkers
Workers fill out and submit each directory or listing form using the data you provide in the brief. Workers screenshot the completed form or the submission confirmation page. You review each proof before paying — you do not pay for submissions that did not go through.

Contact List and Lead Data Entry

Problem
Sales prospecting generates raw lead data in inconsistent formats — LinkedIn exports, spreadsheet scrapes, business card photos, event attendee lists. Cleaning and standardizing this into a usable contact list is a data entry task that blocks outreach until it is done.
With RapidWorkers
Workers take each raw lead record and enter it into your standardized template: name, title, company, email, phone, LinkedIn URL, location. Workers verify missing fields against the company website or LinkedIn before marking them as unavailable. Output is a clean, consistent row per contact in your format.
Pricing

Data Entry Pricing

Cost depends on the number of fields, whether workers need to research missing data, and how complex the target system is. A simple copy of 1–3 fields from a clear source starts at $0.05 — multi-field research and entry into a live system costs more.

Minimum Reward

$0.05

per completed task

Example Task Rewards

TaskExample Reward
Simple copy (1–3 fields, clear source, paste into spreadsheet row)$0.05–$0.08
Multi-field structured entry (5–10 fields from structured PDF or web page)$0.08–$0.12
Research + entry (find a specific data point online, enter into spreadsheet)$0.10–$0.15
System or form entry (fill fields in CRM, backend, or multi-section form)$0.12–$0.20

*These are examples, not fixed pricing tiers.

Calculate Your Cost

Estimate cost by field count and source complexity. One record per task submission keeps your dataset clean and each submission individually reviewable.

Require workers to submit a screenshot of the completed entry or paste the finished row — this lets you verify accuracy against the source before releasing payment.

How It Works

How to Outsource Data Entry

Provide the source and target format. Workers enter the data and submit proof — you verify accuracy before paying.

01

Provide Source and Format

Share the source link and exact fields, formats, and rules for missing values. Workers follow your spec only.

02

Workers Enter the Data

Workers open the source, find the fields, and enter them into your spreadsheet, CRM, form, or template.

03

Workers Submit Entry and Proof

Workers submit the completed entry plus a row paste or screenshot of the finished output.

04

You Verify Before Paying

Compare each entry to the source. Reject typos, missing fields, or wrong formats at no cost.

Your Guarantee: Proof Before Payment

Every Entry Includes the Completed Output and Source Proof

Workers cannot complete a data entry task without submitting the finished entry and proof — you verify accuracy against the original source before releasing payment.

  • Completed entry + source proof before payment

    Every submission includes the finished data entry and a screenshot or paste showing the completed output. You compare the entry to the source before approving — not a representative sample, every single submission

  • Format exactly per your specification

    Workers fill the exact fields you list, in the format you specify. Workers who cannot find a required data point in the source flag it rather than leaving the field blank without noting it — you see every gap before paying

  • Reject errors at no cost

    Entries with typos, missing required fields, incorrect data, or wrong format are rejected before payment. For high-accuracy requirements, allow two workers to enter the same record and compare their output before approving either submission

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

Workers can work from any publicly accessible source: PDF files (linked directly), web pages (provide the URL), spreadsheets shared via a view-only link, screenshots or image files hosted at a URL, and plain text you paste into the brief. Workers cannot access files behind authentication, login walls, or email attachments. Documents that require software to open (proprietary formats, password-protected files) cannot be used as sources.

Yes, if you provide login credentials to a test or sandbox account, or a dedicated worker account with limited access. Specify the exact fields to fill, the format for each field, and the step-by-step navigation path. Workers follow your instructions exactly — they do not make decisions about field mapping or data structure. Never share production admin credentials; create a limited-permission account for the task.

Require workers to submit a screenshot of the completed entry in the target system or a copy of the filled row from the spreadsheet alongside the source data they copied from. Compare the submission to the source before approving. For high-accuracy requirements, set the task to allow two workers to enter the same item and compare their submissions — pay both only if they match.

Yes. Specify in your brief what workers should do if a required field is not in the source — research it from a public source (company website, LinkedIn, government register) or leave it blank with a note. If research is required, include it in your task description and price accordingly. Tasks that require both research and entry take more time than pure copy tasks.

For spreadsheet entry tasks, workers paste the completed row into their submission. For system entry tasks (CRM, form, backend), workers submit a screenshot showing the completed fields with the record visible. For web form submissions, workers submit a screenshot of the confirmation page or the submitted form with all fields visible. You see the proof before releasing payment.

Yes. Post the job as a repeating task — one record or one form per submission. Multiple workers can take tasks from the batch simultaneously, so large volumes complete faster than a sequential workflow. For batches over 500 records, run a quality check on the first 50 submissions before the full batch runs. Set a consistent data format requirement so all workers produce output in the same structure.

Yes. Provide the form URL and the data to be entered for each submission. Workers open the form, fill in the fields per your data, submit it, and screenshot the confirmation. Use this for product registrations, directory listings, contact form outreach, and other form-based tasks. Note: tasks that require workers to submit forms using their own identity information are not permitted — all form data must be provided by you.
