OPENTRAIN AI DOCUMENTATION

Create an AI trainer account

Sign up as an AI trainer on OpenTrain AI, build your profile from your résumé, and verify your email so you can apply to jobs.

Use an AI trainer account if you want to find paid AI training and data labeling work on OpenTrain AI, apply to jobs, and get paid. Setup has two parts: create your account, then build your profile from your résumé.

If you run a data labeling company with a team, set up an agency account instead. If you want to hire AI trainers, see Create an employer account.

  • An email address you can open. At the end of setup, OpenTrain AI sends a 6-digit code to it.
  • Your résumé as a PDF, DOC, DOCX, or TXT file, up to 10 MB, or its text to paste in. OpenTrain AI reads it and fills in most of your profile for you.
  • A mobile phone, in some countries, to receive a 6-digit code by text message.
