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 (Paid Photo Contributor Opportunity (Cousins)) reflects the rate band and the expertise required, not the day-to-day work.

How micro1 picks people

  1. Apply to the role, then do an interview with micro1's AI recruiter. It takes 20 to 40 minutes.
  2. Some roles add a short skills test after the interview.
  3. 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.

Job Summary

• Each cousin completes a short questionnaire about themselves and the submitted images.

• Complete the project remotely using your own smartphones.

Who we're looking for:

The project is designed to create a dataset representing people from a broad range of racial and ethnic backgrounds and physical appearances, including data that helps AI systems better understand visual similarity between family members. We are seeking participation from siblings (2 or more) across many different communities and backgrounds.

Religious and cultural attire:

Participants are welcome to wear religious or cultural attire and accessories in their photos, including but not limited to hijabs, turbans, kippahs, and religious jewelry. These are fully accepted, and there is no need to remove them. We want the dataset to reflect how people actually present themselves.

Sibling groups of all racial and ethnic backgrounds are welcome to apply.

Compensation: u$140 per approved task, per participant

Eligibility: 18+ / NAMER, LATAM, EMEA / smartphone / must have at least one cousin willing to also participate
