What it is

Terac is a marketplace that matches verified professionals with paid remote work. Clients include market research firms and human data companies, including AI labs. Work covers research interviews, surveys, product feedback and AI evaluation in your own field.

What it pays

Pay depends on your expertise, the project and demand for your role. Terac's site shows example rates from $24 to $220 an hour. It says terms are set up front and work is paid after verification. Each listing shows its own rate.

How to get in

  1. Create a profile with your professional background.
  2. Complete a short AI assessment adapted to your field.
  3. Wait for the team to follow up with matching projects.

No prior AI experience is needed. Minimum qualifications are usually undergraduate-level expertise, and many projects want years of experience or an advanced degree.

The catch

  • It is built for professionals. Minimum qualifications are typically undergraduate-level expertise.
  • Work comes project by project, so there is no guaranteed number of hours.
  • Don't pay anyone to get access.
