From the Terac listing

We are running a paid project focused on generating high-quality labeled data for artificial intelligence models. This ongoing initiative helps refine machine learning systems across a variety of formats and subject matters. Your work directly contributes to improving model accuracy, safety, and reasoning capabilities.

How It Works

You will log into our remote platform to access a queue of diverse annotation assignments. Depending on the current batch, you might categorize text, highlight specific entities, or evaluate AI-generated responses for quality. You will work through these assignments independently and at your own pace. The project features rolling availability, allowing you to seamlessly fit the work around your existing schedule.

Who This Is For

We are looking for detail-oriented individuals with prior experience in data annotation, data labeling, or AI model evaluation. We welcome freelance labelers, QA testers, content moderators, and machine learning data specialists. You must be comfortable working independently and adapting to new labeling guidelines as project parameters evolve.

What You'll Do

  • Review text or media samples based on provided project guidelines
  • Apply accurate labels and categorizations to diverse data sets
  • Evaluate AI-generated responses for clarity, safety, and factual accuracy
  • Manage your own time to complete assignments at your preferred pace

Who Should Apply

  • Prior professional experience with data annotation or labeling
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to follow complex guidelines
  • Comfortable working independently on a remote basis
  • Familiarity with evaluating AI outputs or machine learning datasets

Terms in this listing

  • Annotation: Adding labels or notes to data such as text, images, audio or video so a model can learn from it.
  • Labeling: Assigning a category or tag to an item, for example marking a review as positive or negative. Often used as a synonym for annotation.
  • Model evaluation: Testing how well a model performs on a set of tasks, often by people scoring answers against a rubric.
  • Guidelines: The project's written instructions that define how to do a task and how to judge answers. On most projects they take precedence over personal preference.

How applying on Terac works

You create an expert account on Terac and then apply to individual opportunities. Terac's documentation says anyone with an account can take part in its referral scheme without having completed opportunities themselves (referral policy). A sitemap sample also showed that closed listings can stay online and read "This listing has closed", so a stale page is not a live opening (Terac sitemap).
