What this actually is
You evaluate AI responses in the target language, rate translation quality, write prompts in your native language, and flag errors. Not professional translation work in the traditional sense. The platform title (Portuguese (Portugal) Language Analyst - US-based) reflects the rate band and the expertise required, not the day-to-day work.

Before you start

Is Welocalize legit? Our review
A localization company founded in 1997, not a task marketplace. Scheduled rater work with bounded weekly hours, steadier but lower pay than Outlier or Alignerr ceilings, and a residency catch on Korean-language roles worth checking before you apply.
