About AI Training and Document Annotation

AI training is the human work behind artificial intelligence. Contributors review, label, transcribe, and structure real-world information so AI systems can learn from accurate examples. In this project, your financial-document expertise will help improve systems that understand complex PDFs, tables, and business records.

• Work with document data used to train and evaluate AI
• Apply accounting and finance judgment, not just visual matching
• Help preserve the meaning and structure of financial information

The Role

As an Accounting and Finance Document Annotation Contributor, you will review financial PDFs and ensure their extracted structure is accurate, complete, and meaningful. OCR preannotations and bounding boxes are provided, but you will verify, correct, and complete the output.

This is an intermediate-level contractor and part-time role for applicants with accounting or finance experience. Professional working English proficiency and availability of at least 20 hours per week are required.

• Employment type: Contractor, part-time
• Experience level: Intermediate
• Language: Professional working English
• Location: Worldwide
• Pay: $7-$9 USD per hour

What You'll Do

You will review financial documents for accurate OCR, labeling, transcription, structure, and context. Careful quality control is essential because small errors in amounts, totals, dates, or financial terminology can change the meaning of a document.

• Review invoices, receipts, bank statements, financial statements, tax and audit materials, payment records, and business reports.
• Identify and correct OCR errors in numbers, dates, currency amounts, account names, table values, totals, and financial terminology.
• Assign region labels for text, section headers, titles, page headers and footers, tables, key-value fields, captions, footnotes, handwritten text, signatures, and unreadable content.
• Check that labels and transcriptions make sense in the context of each financial document.
• Review or create clean HTML table output that preserves rows, columns, headers, totals, and financial meaning.
• Create accurate JSON key-value pairs for invoice numbers, dates, vendor and customer names, totals, balances, payment terms, tax amounts, and account references.
• Organize reading order and parent-child or previous-instance relationships so documents can be reconstructed correctly.
• Complete a final quality check with special attention to financial accuracy and consistency.

Requirements

Applicants should have practical experience with accounting or finance work. General data annotation experience by itself is not enough for this project, though prior OCR, document annotation, data labeling, quality assurance, or data-entry experience is helpful.

You should be comfortable following detailed annotation guidelines, reviewing structured outputs, and spotting inconsistencies in financial records. HTML table or JSON experience is helpful but can be learned.

• Resume showing accounting, finance, bookkeeping, audit, tax, accounts payable or receivable, reconciliation, invoice processing, financial reporting, banking, or similar experience
• Ability to identify mistakes in amounts, dates, tables, totals, labels, and financial terminology
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to high accuracy
• Comfort working with structured table output and key-value data
• Professional working English proficiency
• Availability to contribute 20 or more hours per week

Who Should Apply

This project is designed for accounting and finance professionals, including people with experience in bookkeeping, accounts payable or receivable, audit, tax, banking, reconciliation, invoice processing, or financial reporting. Your ability to interpret financial meaning is more important than experience with this exact annotation tool.

If you enjoy detail-oriented document review and want to contribute to the development of AI systems, this role offers a direct way to apply your financial knowledge to cutting-edge technology.

• Accounting and finance professionals seeking remote contract work
• Bookkeepers and financial operations specialists
• Audit, tax, banking, and reconciliation professionals
