What this actually is
You complete short labeling tasks, record everyday activities, or evaluate AI outputs across general knowledge domains. Open to most backgrounds. The platform title (AI Agent Tester - Real-World Tasks) reflects the rate band and the expertise required, not the day-to-day work.
How micro1 picks people
- Apply to the role, then do an interview with micro1's AI recruiter. It takes 20 to 40 minutes.
- Some roles add a short skills test after the interview.
- If you pass, micro1 asks you to finish your profile and verify your ID. You then join its certified pool and can apply to its other open roles.
Before you start
- Plan for 40 minutes in a quiet place.
- Have your CV and two or three examples of your own work in this field ready to talk about.
Not every applicant gets an offer. Prepare well for the interview.

You’ll need: An active personal AI assistant account (Plus tier), active Muse and Dots access, a smartphone that can screen record, and a payment card you can use for test purchases that are reimbursed afterward
Your tasks: Run everyday errands with two AI agents, approve key steps, screen record, and score the results
About the role
AI agents are starting to handle real-life errands: paying bills, booking trips, doing the groceries. We want to know how well they actually do it, from the point of view of a real user. That’s you.
You’ll test two AI agents side by side, using your own accounts on your phone, and tell us what worked, what didn’t, and how it felt.
What you’ll do
• Run real-life scenarios: bills, returns, email follow-ups, bookings, shopping, groceries, travel, family logistics, outings, and forms
• Approve or stop the agent at key steps
• Screen record every attempt
• Score each run on completion, quality, control issues, satisfaction, and time
• Share clear written feedback on the agent experience
Who we’re looking for
• US-based, with a Bachelor’s degree
• Someone who already uses AI in daily life
• 2-3 years of experience, preferably in engineering, business management, or office/operations
• Detail-oriented, great at following instructions and documenting each step
• Clear written communication
• Generalists welcome, domain experts preferred
• No coding or AI background needed
Why you’ll like it
• Get paid to use the AI tools you already use
• Work entirely from your phone, on your schedule
• Have a direct say in how next-generation AI agents get built and improved
How the selection process works
• Apply
• Complete the screening questions
• Interview: 15-30 minutes max
• Profile review: if everything looks good, we present you to the client
• Onboarding: our Talent Ops team will contact you to get you started
