Amazon Mechanical Turk: Getting Started Guide

This is official Amazon Web Services (AWS) documentation for Amazon Mechanical Turk. Amazon Mechanical Turk is a web service that provides an on-demand, scalable, human workforce to complete jobs that humans can do better than computers, such as recognizing objects in photographs. This guide provides a conceptual overview of Amazon Mechanical Turk for developers who want to write scripts or software applications using the Amazon Mechanical Turk SDKs. For information on using a graphical user interface to access Amazon Mechanical Turk functionality, go to the Amazon Mechanical Turk Requester User Interface Guide.
