About AI Training and Audio Transcription

AI training is the human work behind modern artificial intelligence. People prepare, review, and improve examples that help AI systems understand language, speech, images, and other real-world information.

For this project, accurate French transcripts help improve how technology processes spoken French across different accents, registers, speaking speeds, and recording conditions.

The Role

OpenTrain AI is recruiting a French Audio Transcript Editor to review French audio recordings against existing transcripts. You will correct errors, align words precisely to the audio, apply project standards, and identify segments that are unclear or ambiguous.

This is a fully remote, flexible contractor role with part-time work and task-based assignments. The role description supports a commitment of 10–40 hours per week, while the listing indicates availability of 20 or more hours per week. No prior AI or technology experience is required.

• Contractor and part-time engagement
• Remote work from France
• French-language audio transcription and editing
• Pay listed at $10–$35 USD per hour
• Entry-level opportunity with no prior AI experience required

What You’ll Do

You will work independently with annotation platforms and transcript editing tools to deliver polished, accurate output. Assignments require close listening, careful application of style rules, and consistent documentation of difficult audio.

• Listen to French audio recordings and compare them with existing transcripts.
• Correct spelling, word choice, punctuation, and speaker attribution errors.
• Ensure word-level accuracy and precise timing alignment throughout each transcript.
• Apply detailed style and formatting guidelines consistently.

You should be comfortable following detailed rules and working reliably without close supervision.
