An AI assistant for long documents, analysis and code, with Claude Code and Cowork on paid plans.
AI trainer and data annotator
New roleRates and corrects model answers, writes reference solutions and labels the data that models learn from. Companies that train models increasingly look for people with subject-matter expertise, not just labelers.
Where this job sits on the map
In the same group: 14 of 100 professions.
What changes
Instead of simple labels on images, the work is more often judging a complex model answer and explaining what's wrong with it.
Subject expertise is valued: medicine, law, math, programming, rare languages.
The work is usually project-based and remote, through intermediary platforms, and the volume of tasks can swing sharply.
AI drafts, the person decides
How the work splits here: AI prepares a draft, the person checks it and makes the call.
What AI does
- Does a first pass of labeling that a person then checks
- Generates answer variants to compare
- Finds duplicates and obvious errors in the data
- Checks finished work against the instructions and flags the disputed spots
What stays with the person
- Expert judgment: which answer is correct and why
- Staying careful across hundreds of similar tasks under a long set of instructions
- Reference solutions that a model can't write itself
- Turning down tasks that break the law or someone else's privacy
