Thanks for the feedback!
I don't think of Caterpi as something to manage translators; it's more of a platform for translators. This is an important distinction to make, since traditionally, translation agencies frown upon direct communication between translators and their clients.
I haven't really thought about having the crowd compete to win a translation contest. It seems like it could be viable for long/costly translations, where each competitor would submit a small portion of the translated text.
If you're looking for more information, I'd check out mygengo's blog. It turns out the majority of their translations are for short snippets of text (such as emails). I do think that translation is a big market, and that it's only going to get bigger -- so it's definitely worth researching.
