Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Toloka is a crowdsourcing platform and microtasking project launched by Yandex in 2014[2] to quickly markup large amounts of data, which are then used for machine learning and improving search algorithms.[4] The proposed tasks are usually simple and do not require any special training from the performer.[2] Most of the tasks are designed to improve algorithms that are used by modern technologies spanning self-driving vehicles, smart web searches, advanced voice assistants and e-commerce.[citation needed] Upon completion of each task the performer receives a reward based on the volume of images, videos, and unstructured text.[3] The service has two app versions – for Android and iOS.
