Check out the growing list of features...


  • No need to install, configure and maintain complex webserver software (e.g., Apache, MySQL)
  • Minimize security issues since server only runs while you want to collect data
  • Prevent same worker from performing your experiment multiple times
  • Standardization across labs/research groups aids replicability/code sharing
  • Automatically record if participant is switching between windows during the task
  • Save data from experiment incrementally to maximize data collection
  • Prevent users for quiting then restarting experiment
  • Extendable Python based API: easily add new functionality
  • Library of experiments you can adapt or replicate
  • Fully open-source development helps catch bugs
  • Easy to use interactive command line
  • Simplifies paying participants quickly, including bonuses
  • Automatically fill in conditions randomly and evenly
  • Easily switch between AMT's sandbox and live site
  • Perfect for laboratory-based courses with undergrads (replicating studies)
  • Since everything runs locally easy to debug/test (even w/o Internet!)
  • Well documented!
