We are not actually built on MTurk. The tagline is there to allow people to quickly understand what type of tasks we can complete.

We bring on our own workers that have been vetted and tested by us - and are also open to working with workforce providers. In terms of scaling, we are not concerned about the supply (workers). There are a very large number of workers available - and quality can be moderated with the right onboarding and testing processes. The more difficult side of the equation is the demand side. By building a simple RESTful API - we hope to be able to generate consistent demand.

In that case we've changed the title to make it less misleading.

(Submitted title was "Show HN: The Power of Amazon MTurk in the Form of a Stripe-Like API".)
