The work

What you'd actually be doing.

Careful, detailed work that decides how AI models behave. It suits people who read closely and would rather flag an unclear case than guess at it.

You get verified

Identity checks and a skills assessment mean clients know exactly who does their work — which is how we reach projects anonymous platforms never see.

You get clear guidelines

Every project comes with written guidelines, worked examples and a named reviewer. You know what "right" looks like before you start.

You can progress

A consistent accuracy record lowers your review rate and opens higher-paying work. RLHF and writing sit at our top rate tier.

Pay

What you earn, and how.

Rates vary by project, client budget and complexity. What doesn't vary: you see the exact rate in writing before you accept anything, never after.

What you need

A laptopMost projects need a computer, not a phone
Stable internetEnough for a full working session
Strong written EnglishOther languages are an advantage
18 or olderWith valid ID for verification

Being straight with you: we don't run a training programme, so you need to work accurately from written guidelines on your own. Previous annotation, evaluation, writing or research work helps — but care and honesty about what you're unsure of matter more.

How to join

Seven steps, no surprises.

Application to verified pool is typically 5–10 days. After that it depends on client demand — we won't promise work we don't have.

01

Apply

5 min

Fill in the form above. It reaches our onboarding team straight away.

Have ready: an email address you actually check.
02

Screening

48 hrs

We check the basics — 18+, laptop, stable internet, strong written English — and reply either way.

Outcome: an invite to verification, or an honest no.
03

Identity verification

1–2 days

A valid government ID and a selfie to match it. This is what lets us tell clients exactly who does their work.

We never ask for: your BVN, bank password, card PIN or payment.
04

Skills assessment

45–90 min

Real-style tasks in your area, scored against a known answer key. Includes deliberate edge cases.

Tip: flagging an unclear item scores better than guessing.
05

Agreements

15 min

NDA and contributor agreement, plus your payout details — account name and number only.

Read before signing. Ask us anything; a good question is never a problem.
06

Project briefing

When work opens

You join the verified pool. Each project starts with the client's written guidelines and a calibration round with the team.

Always: you see the exact pay rate in writing before accepting.
07

Work & get paid

Ongoing

20% of your work is reviewed while you're new, dropping to 5% once proven. Feedback always comes with the reason.

Progression: proven contributors move into RLHF and writing work.

How to spot a fake "MO AI" recruiter

  • We never ask you to pay a registration, assessment or equipment fee
  • We never ask for your BVN, bank password, card PIN or an OTP
  • We never guarantee a fixed monthly income before you're matched to a project
  • We never recruit through a group chat asking you to pay to "unlock tasks"

Our only official channels: this website, WhatsApp 0901 067 1692, and hello@moannotation.com. If anything claiming to be MO AI asks you for money, it isn't us — please report it.

FAQ

Straight answers.

Is it free to join?

Completely. We never charge you to register, be assessed, or work. Anyone asking you to pay a fee to join MO AI is not us — report it to us immediately.

How much will I earn?

It depends on the project, the work type and your accuracy record. RLHF and writing pay the highest rates; straightforward annotation pays less. You see the exact rate in writing before you accept a task, never after. If someone can't tell you the rate up front, don't take the work.

Do I need experience?

Honestly: we don't run a training programme, so you need to work accurately from written guidelines on your own. Previous annotation, evaluation, writing or research work helps a lot. If you have none of that but you read carefully and flag what you're unsure about, apply anyway — the assessment decides, not your CV.

When and how do I get paid?

Terms are stated in your project agreement before you start, and paid to your bank account or preferred payout method. Payment is tied to accepted work — work that fails review may need correcting first, which is why reading the guidelines carefully matters.

Can I work from my phone?

Most projects need a laptop or desktop; annotation tools are demanding and accuracy suffers on a small screen. Apply anyway and we'll tell you honestly whether anything currently fits.

How long until I get work?

5–10 days to reach the verified pool. Getting your first task after that depends on client demand — we won't invent work that doesn't exist just to fill the pipeline.

How do I know this isn't a scam?

Fair question, and you should ask everyone it. We're a registered Nigerian company with a named founder, a public website and a base in Abuja. We never ask you for money, and never for your BVN or bank password — only the account details needed to pay you.
