Microtask crowd · Speech & annotation crowd
Neevo
Neevo (neevo.ai) is the contributor community operated by Defined.ai (formerly DefinedCrowd), engaging a global crowd (its homepage, read 3 Nov 2026: 1,500,000 contributors in 120 countries) in speech data collection, audio-transcript validation, transcription, and text, image and video tasks. Its own app listing states contributors average $10-15/hr, paid through PayPal after each job is validated, and the platform is active in 2026 (its iOS app had a new release, version 4.20.1, on 26 Oct 2026). Work is typically done in 10 to 15 minute chunks and matched to a contributor's profile, location, and language.
Platform-stated
Is Neevo legit?
Established platform backed by Defined.ai, with enterprise clients cited (Yahoo Japan, Mastercard, Randstad). Generally regarded as legitimate; the common worker complaint is inconsistent task availability by region and language, and its own help center ('Pending Payments', 16 May 2025, read 3 Nov 2026) apologizes for long waits between finishing tasks and being paid, which it puts down to validation steps and problems with its payment partners. A member-refers-member referral is mentioned in some Defined.ai materials (a bonus credited after a referral completes their first session), but it is undocumented, not self-serve, and the member agreement contains no referral terms, so no referral link is wired. It pays ~$10-15/hr average (Neevo's own figure) (platform-stated).
Joined through its own application (it publishes no job postings)
PayPal only, sent through third-party vendors, after the job's contributions are complete (or its deadline passes) and pass validation and quality control; long jobs may pay in parts (its help center, dated 16 May 2025, read 3 Nov 2026).

Honest catches
- Pay here is platform-stated, not measured live from a job feed, so treat it as a benchmark rather than a guaranteed rate.
