Gameplay Annotation Specialist

This listing pays $20-$25/hr, which places it in Claru's mid tier rather than its specialist band. Roles here expect you to apply a written rubric consistently across a large volume of examples and to flag ambiguous cases instead of guessing, rather than to hold a specific credential. The $55-$100/hr listings are where formal domain qualifications start being enforced.

Batches. Claru describes this work as asynchronous with no scheduled hours and no meetings: you claim a batch, complete it and submit. There is no guarantee a new batch is waiting when you finish one, so treat it as recurring project income rather than a fixed weekly wage.

Through agreement scoring and review. Its evaluation roles set a target for how closely your scores track other annotators, and disagreements with reviewers are resolved in an async comment thread you are expected to answer within a day. Consistently strong scores are what unlock the senior and lead tracks Claru mentions in its listings.

For the desk-based annotation and evaluation roles, yes: they are listed as remote with no country gate. The country restrictions on Claru apply to its video capture listings, which are limited to the specific markets named on each one.

No set hours, no check-ins, no meetings. You log in when you want, pick up an available task, complete it, and submit; nobody is waiting on you in real time. That's different from remote employment, where you're expected online during business hours. The tradeoff: you're competing with others for available tasks, so an empty queue means there's simply nothing to do until more work is released.

Most skip a live interview entirely and gate access through an automated assessment or qualification task instead. Where we've confirmed the specific requirement for this listing, it's called out above in What We Know About This Role.

Tasks here are scoped to Generalist, not generic labeling. As a Gameplay Annotation Specialist, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Generalist) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Generalist background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.

Expert and AI Training are named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with these, expect the screening process to test for them directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.

This listing is posted at $20–$25/hr, an hourly rate. The range reflects experience level and negotiated terms, not a placeholder, so where you land in it depends on your background and the assessment. Pay can change between when we last checked the listing and when you apply, so confirm the current number on the platform's own application page before committing time.

You'll be taken to Claru's external site to complete your application there. This listing links through a referral, but the process is identical to applying directly; the link just routes you correctly. Create an account on their site and follow their onboarding steps.

This specific role is open only to people based in the United States. If you are somewhere else, applying is unlikely to lead to an offer even if you pass the assessment, because the restriction is usually about where the work can legally be contracted rather than your skills. Read the full description for any tax-residency or right-to-work caveats before you apply.

Claru is the contributor-facing brand of Reka AI, which collects human data for frontier AI labs across text, vision, video and robotics. Its board splits into regional video capture work and desk-based annotation and evaluation, and the apply link on this page is an affiliate link that does not change your pay or what you are offered.
