🚀 Help Train the Future of AI—From Right Where You Are in New Zealand

Whether you're a language enthusiast, a freelance veteran, or just curious
about diving into the world of machine learning, this remote opportunity offers
you the chance to play a critical role in advancing the AI technologies we use

"click-and-go" gig. It’s a contract-based position with room for professional
growth, flexible hours, and the chance to work on projects that could
redefine how humans interact with technology. Whether you’re a university
student looking for extra income, a freelancer seeking impactful work, or a
parent needing work-from-home flexibility, this opportunity allows you to customize
your schedule while building a solid portfolio in the AI space.
You don’t need to be a tech guru or
a coder—just bring your native-level English proficiency, attention to detail,
and commitment to quality. With a minimum of 15–20 hours per week,
you’ll help push boundaries in how AI understands and responds to language in
real-life scenarios.
So, if you’re based in New Zealand
