About AI Speech Evaluation

AI training is the human side of building artificial intelligence. People provide examples, review model outputs, and give structured feedback so AI systems can communicate more naturally and accurately.

In audio and speech projects, contributors assess pronunciation, accents, fluency, and clarity. Their feedback helps improve how AI-generated voices sound across languages, regions, and speaking styles.

OpenTrain AI is seeking a Canadian English Speech and Accent Evaluator to help assess and improve AI-generated spoken responses. You will interact with an AI model in Canadian English, provide audio prompts, and evaluate the model’s responses for accent, fluency, pronunciation, and naturalness.

Applicants must currently be based in Canada and have at least two years of experience using Canadian English in daily personal or professional communication. Familiarity with local pronunciation, accent variation, and linguistic nuances is essential.
