Task-Specific Sahara Points (SP)

Base Points

Base points are granted for every datapoint submitted that passes the quality benchmarks set for that task. More complex tasks deliver higher base points. These rewards are flexible and will be actively adjusted on a weekly basis to ensure fairness and reflect task difficulty.

Bonus Points

Higher-quality datapoints that exceed predesignated bonus benchmarks result in bonus points. Bonus points are calculated as a percentage of the base points earned for that datapoint. More complex tasks deliver higher bonus points.

How are Sahara Points (SP) calculated?

Sahara Points are calculated per contribution. The amount of Sahara Points you receive for each contribution can vary depending on the quality of that contribution. How many Sahara Points a contribution receives is calculated as follows:

Sahara Points= Base Point + Bonus Point (if applicable)

Example - High Quality Datapoints:

For an Advanced-level task, if a datapoint passes quality standards with high accuracy, your total SP for that datapoint could look like the following:

• Base Points: 20 SP

• Bonus Points: 5% of base points, totalling 1 SP.

• Total SP earned for the datapoint = 20 + 1 = 21 SP

Note: The actual reward values for tasks are adjusted on a weekly basis; this example is provided solely for clarity and explanation.

What Does “High Accuracy” Mean?

• High accuracy refers to the degree to which your submissions align with the task’s predefined quality benchmarks.

• Tasks are reviewed against specific criteria, and submissions that meet or exceed the required accuracy level are considered high-quality.

• High accuracy is critical for receiving Bonus Points.

Daily Datapoints Limit

Each user has a daily limit on the number of datapoints they can submit across different task difficulties:

• Beginner Tasks: Highest allowance of datapoints.

• Intermediate Tasks: Moderate allowance.

• Advanced and Expert Tasks: Lowest allowance but highest potential rewards.

This balance ensures fair earning opportunities while maintaining data quality for the platform.

Daily Workload Limit

• To maintain fairness in task allocation, we are applying a maximum workload per user to ensure that genuine contributors who provide high-quality data receive fair opportunities.

• The workload limit refreshes daily at UTC 00:30 AM, allowing contributors to continue submitting new datapoints the following day.

End-of-Season Rewards

At the end of each season, participants will receive bonus rewards in the form of Sahara Points and advance to higher user tiers based on their final leaderboard ranking. Rewards are proportional to ranking, encouraging consistent participation and high performance throughout the season.

Leaderboard rewards will be distributed at the start of the next season. As seasons progress, certain task categories—such as Advanced and Expert tasks—will become exclusive to higher-tier users. These tasks offer greater rewards but also come with increased difficulty.

Use each season to hone your skills, build experience, and secure your spot in higher tiers to unlock even more exciting opportunities ahead!

Note: Sahara Points earned during the off-season will not affect leaderboard rankings.
