What this actually is

You record voice samples following scripts, evaluate AI-generated audio for quality, and provide expert feedback used to train speech models. Often paid by the minute or hour of recording. The platform title (Amharic Speakers: Audio Transcription and Segmentation Project) reflects the rate band and the expertise required, not the day-to-day work.

What We're Researching

We're running a paid study to improve the accuracy of Amharic speech recognition models. High-quality audio segmentation and transcription correction feed directly into making these language tools more reliable. This work ensures that automated systems accurately capture the nuances of spoken Amharic.

How It Works

You will log into a dedicated platform to listen to various Amharic audio recordings. Your primary task is to verify and adjust the existing audio segmentation boundaries so they align perfectly with the speech. You will also review the text transcripts provided and correct any errors you hear. This is an ongoing project requiring a minimum commitment of 10 hours per week.

Who This Is For

We are looking for fluent Amharic speakers with strong listening and writing skills. Candidates with a background in transcription, translation, or linguistics are highly encouraged to apply. You must be detail-oriented and able to commit to the ongoing weekly hour requirement.
