CrowdFlower, the company that uses crowdsourcing for data scrubbing, announced yesterday it raised some cash to help it bloom.

The newest installment, which was led by Canvas Ventures, brings the San Francisco company’s total funding to $28 million. Other investors in this round include Bessemer Venture Partners and Trinity Ventures.

CrowdFlower, which does data work for companies such as Home Depot and Cisco, pays more than 5 million people to contribute to the data scrubbing. Some of the applications include:

• Data Collection & Enhancement
• Content Moderation
• Search Relevance Tuning
• Sentiment Analysis

CrowdFlower plans to use the new funds to grow its product and customer base.

To see CrowdFlower demo its newest technology live, come see them at FinovateFall next week in New York. We still have a few tickets left.
