The hub for LLM trainers & AI experts.
2,000+ pay-disclosed AI training, RLHF, and expert-data roles indexed daily at $20–$200/hr — plus remote freelance and US corporate feeds. Neutral aggregator. Apply direct. Data never resold.
Ranked by freshness, pay, and match.
Every listing on HireFeed is pay-disclosed, deduplicated, and dated. Toggle between AI training (default), remote freelance, and US corporate roles — same trust bar, same ranking rules.
What AI training actually pays.
The only public rate index built from pay-disclosed listings — not surveys. Seven domains, top-decile rates, 90-day trend, published methodology. Neutral.

Every AI data platform runs its own screening on the same experts. HireFeed Vetted is a portable credential — candidate-owned, evidence-tiered, designed to be recognized across platforms instead of re-proved per platform.
Skill Passport
Declare domains, credentials, languages, coding skills. No résumé upload. Instant personalized feed + realistic pay band estimate.
Domain Exam
Scenario-based, adaptive, co-authored with working RLHF leads. Passing = V1 Verified. Credential claims verified in parallel.
Calibration Trial
Real tasks against a held-out golden set. Measures inter-rater agreement (κ), rubric adherence, throughput. Passing = V2 Calibrated.
Sourced & live
Vetted experts enter the searchable pool. Post-placement quality reviews update the score continuously. Top decile = V3 Frontier.
Evidence, not résumés.
Résumés don't say whether you can rank two model responses at 2am. HireFeed Vetted profiles carry per-skill evidence tiers — self-report to live production telemetry — so buyers see what you've actually done, not what you've claimed.
- → Credentials verified via DigiLocker / Persona / registrar APIs
- → Per-skill scores with visible evidence tier
- → Rubric-graded samples buyers can inspect
- → Candidate-owned. Portable. Never resold.
The rules the AI training market needs.
Freshness first
60s re-poll. Closed roles drop within minutes. Queues going dark = an alert, not a surprise.
Pay disclosed
Every listing shows the rate — hourly, range, or salary. No "competitive comp" hides.
Direct apply
Click through to the platform's own apply page. No intermediary form. No middleman.
Anonymous browse
No login required to search. No email wall. No cookie fingerprint sold to recruiters.
Never resold
Candidate data is not for sale. Not to platforms. Not to advertisers. Full stop.
Stop screening 10,000 to hire 40.
Every AI data platform runs the same funnel on the same experts. HireFeed Vetted is designed to be the shared credential layer — so your talent team searches a pre-calibrated pool instead of re-running the assessment.

What is HireFeed?
A neutral, pay-disclosed job feed for AI training work — RLHF, LLM evaluation, agentic red-teaming, domain-expert data. We index the market so experts can find and apply to real, rate-transparent roles across every major platform in one place. Candidates never pay. Candidate data is never resold.
How much do AI trainers earn in 2026?
Domain-dependent. Generalist annotation pays $18–$25/hr. Coding evaluation $40–$75/hr. Math and science reasoning at PhD level $60–$120/hr. Agentic evaluation and red-teaming $70–$130/hr. Law (JD) $90–$160/hr. Medicine (MD/DO) $100–$210/hr. Top decile in medicine and law reaches $250/hr. See the full Pay Index for methodology.
How is HireFeed different from Outlier, Mercor, or Surge?
Those are marketplaces — they vet talent and sell it at a take rate of 30–55%. HireFeed is an aggregator + credential layer. We do not gate the feed, do not take a cut, do not collect data resale rights, and rank platforms with a publicly disclosed methodology. Our upcoming HireFeed Vetted credential is portable — candidate-owned, not locked to any single marketplace.
Do you charge candidates?
No. Candidates never pay to browse the feed, apply, or hold a HireFeed Vetted credential (when it launches). Revenue comes from buyer-side sourcing seats and programmatic job-ad partners on Tier 3 corporate roles. The candidate side is free forever.
When does the HireFeed Vetted credential launch?
In build. Stage-1 Skill Passport is targeting Q4 2026. Stage-2 domain exams and Stage-3 paid calibration trials follow. Subscribe to the newsletter to be alerted for the first cohort — no waitlist gating.
What roles show up on HireFeed?
Three tracks in one feed. AI training (Tier 1): RLHF, LLM eval, agentic red-teaming, expert data, annotation. Freelance (Tier 2): engineering, ML, design, technical writing. US corporate (Tier 3): full-time roles at AI labs and enterprise data ops. All rate-disclosed.
Is my location eligible?
Depends on the platform. Most top platforms accept US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, NZ. Some (Mercor, Surge, DataAnnotation) run global cohorts including India and select European markets. Eligibility maps by country are on the roadmap — until then, each listing carries its own eligibility line.
Frontier models need frontier humans.
