# Tasks

> Task types, payout tiers, and submission requirements.

A task is a request to capture something specific — a short video or a
document. Each task lists what to capture and a payout tier before you start.
You find tasks in the **Tasks** tab and submit from the task detail screen.

## Task types

<ResponseField name="Video">
  Record original, short video clips.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="Document">
  Upload PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and similar files.
</ResponseField>

## Payout tiers

Each task is priced by effort. The tier shows on the task before you accept it;
the final amount is confirmed when your submission is approved.

| Tier  | Payout      | Effort                              |
| ----- | ----------- | ----------------------------------- |
| `$`   | Up to \$1   | Light effort                        |
| `$$`  | Up to \$5   | Medium effort                       |
| `$$$` | Up to \$20+ | Higher effort or specialty captures |

## Submission requirements

A submission has to match the task brief to be approved.

* **Original.** Capture it yourself for this task. Reused, downloaded, or
  stock content is rejected.
* **On brief.** Cover exactly what the task describes. Read the requirements
  on the task detail screen before you record or upload.
* **Right format.** Use a supported type for the task — a video clip for
  video tasks, or PDF, Word, Excel, or PowerPoint for document tasks.
* **Legible.** Documents must be readable; videos must be in focus with
  usable audio where the brief calls for it.

<Tip>
  You can submit by recording or uploading in the app, or by connecting cloud
  storage so eligible files import automatically. See
  [Connections](/integrations).

## Review and payout

Submissions are reviewed before payout. Approved submissions move their amount
into your cash balance; see [Earnings](/earnings). If a submission is rejected,
the task stays open so you can try again, and you can
[contact support](/support) if you think a rejection was a mistake.
