Some projects pay per task instead: you are paid when the full task is submitted, with a bonus for each accepted task. Strong performers move up within that range or onto productivity-based pay. The trial task is paid.</li> <li><strong>Commitment:</strong> 10 or more hours per week</li> <li><strong>Start:</strong> Rolling</li> <li><strong>Location:</strong> Remote, US only</li> </ul> <h2><strong>The role</strong></h2> <p>You'll work with our research team on two things. The first is helping us understand how work in your area is actually done. The second is designing realistic legal tasks that a qualified professional could solve with the right knowledge and tools, and that today's AI models get wrong.</p> <p>Each task starts from a scenario we provide. You create the working documents someone in your role would handle, write the request, solve it yourself and define how the answer is graded. Your work becomes evaluation and training data for frontier models.</p> <p>You don't need an AI background. You do need to be the kind of legal professional who checks the amendment before relying on the agreement and notices when a deadline has moved.</p> <h2><strong>Areas we're hiring for</strong></h2> <p>Each area is defined by the document you work in, so you should fit exactly one. If you work across two, apply under the one where you spend most of your time.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Litigation and dispute resolution.</strong> Litigators, paralegals and litigation support staff who run discovery and productions, privilege review, depositions, pleadings and motions.
