Which AI training platforms accept which countries

On 26 October 2026, 340 of 2,544 open AI training roles (11.7%) accepted any country. The rest named where you may work from, and most of those named a single country. The role matters more than the platform: one platform can have a role open to everyone and the next one open only to the United States.

How each platform writes it

Platforms are in alphabetical order, not ranked. "None named" means the posting gives no country; we count those as unknown, never as open. A few patterns:

• Appen, Meridial, Welocalize, RWS TrainAI and Terac mostly write one country per role. A role for Mexican Spanish names Mexico.
• micro1 puts one list of 58 countries on 166 of its roles. Croatia is not on that list, so Croatia sees only the 37 worldwide roles there.

Roles open in each country

A role counts in a column when its posting names that country or says worldwide. The United States has 1,197 roles, India 820 and Croatia 355. Croatia sits lower because micro1's usual country list leaves it out.

Best-paid expert roles

Referral link: we may earn a fee if you join through it. How this works

Platforms we do not read

Outlier and DataAnnotation are not in our daily read, so we have no country counts for them. Their pages say what we know: Outlier and DataAnnotation.

Alignerr and Turing are in the tables, but their roles are picked by hand from their own portals, a few of each, so their rows count the roles we chose, not all the roles they have. Their pages say more: Alignerr and Turing.

What to watch out for

• Check the country again at sign-up. A platform can ask where you live when you apply, even when the posting allows your country.
• A language role names the country of the dialect. A Brazilian Portuguese role names Brazil because it wants a Brazilian speaker, and an address is only part of that.
• A role can be open to your country while the way the platform pays does not reach it. Read its payment terms before you spend time on a test.

How we count

We read each platform's public job board once a day and keep the country list each posting gives. A role with no country named counts as unknown. Sign-up rules are not checked: a platform can refuse a country its posting allows. More data: AI Training Jobs Report, October 2026.

Prepare the interview: practice questions for each kind of role.
