From the Mercor listing
About the project Agentic-MME tests whether AI models can investigate an image rather than just look at it. To solve a task, the model has to crop, rotate or enhance the image so a small detail becomes readable, then search the web for a fact, and then check each against the other before answering.
What you'll do
Use high-resolution images where the key detail is small or degraded to test frontier AI models on the raw image and find what they miss, then build tasks around those gaps
Write realistic prompts that need image work and at least one web search
Record the shortest solution path step by step, with the image operations used and a credible source for each search
Give one exact golden answer, a clear answer format and any accepted variants
What we're looking for
Strong attention to detail
Excellent writing skills
Skill at web research, with a habit of using primary, authoritative sources
Advanced degree holders
Experience working on rubrics is a plus but not a must-have
How long hiring takes
Across the AI training platforms we refer candidates to, the median gap between referral and hire is about 30 days. It varies by platform and role, so treat it as a rough guide for this one.

Common questions
Does it cost money to apply to Mercor?
No, applying and joining Mercor is free. Mercor's revenue comes from a fee it charges the client on top of your hourly rate, not from applicants. Treat any request for payment to join as a red flag.
Is Mercor for freelancers or full-time contractors?
Mercor places you with one client for a defined engagement, like 'Python Tutor for 3 months', rather than having you grab small tasks from a shared queue. Most roles function as steady contract work, not one-off gigs.
What equipment do I need for creative AI training roles?
For voice or audio roles at this pay level, a professional home studio setup (XLR microphone, acoustically treated room) is typically required. Phone recordings and laptop mics usually get rejected by quality control.
How is my creative work used in AI training?
As ground-truth data: for writers, that means creative generation samples; for voice actors, it often means training text-to-speech models. Check the specific contract details on rights usage for your voice or likeness before signing.
What does Writing work look like for a Task Writer: Project Agentic-MME?
Tasks here are scoped to Writing, not generic labeling. As a Task Writer: Project Agentic-MME, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Writing) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Writing background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
AI Training is named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with this, expect the screening process to test for it directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.
How much does this specific role pay?
This listing is posted at $60/hr, an hourly rate. 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.
What happens when I click Apply on this listing?
You'll be taken to Mercor'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.
How soon will I start working after applying to Mercor?
Not immediately. Mercor is a talent marketplace, not a task queue, so applying puts you in a pool of candidates. You start working only once a specific client, like a major AI lab, selects your profile, and that matching process can take weeks.
