About AI training work

AI training (data labeling and annotation) is the human side of building modern AI. Contributors create and review examples—like voice recordings used to teach IVR and call-routing systems—so models learn to understand real people and real speech.

This work is often fully remote, flexible, and accessible to entry-level contributors. Many projects let you choose your hours and fit short tasks around other commitments, while you directly influence how AI systems behave.

The role

Record a short, supervised batch of phone greetings and operator/voicemail clips in your native language using our web tool and your in-country mobile network. You will record approximately 30 short clips (each up to 30 seconds); the exact number depends on the operator message type assigned.

This batch is remote and flexible—most participants finish in 30–45 minutes. Recordings capture real phone greetings and voicemail audio to improve IVR and call-routing models.

• Task type: Audio recording of scripted phone greetings and operator/voicemail clips.
• Clip length: Each recording is ≤30 seconds.
• Tool: Recordings are submitted via our web tool using your in-country mobile connection.
