What the work involves

You receive documents and spreadsheet artifacts — a workbook an AI model built from a messy dataset, a set of formulas answering a business question, a chart or pivot summary, sometimes a slide deck built off the same numbers — and you assess them against a rubric. That means checking whether the formula actually computes what the prompt asked, whether ranges are anchored correctly, whether a lookup silently returns the wrong row, whether the chart type misrepresents the data, and whether the stated conclusion survives contact with the underlying cells. You then write structured feedback: what is wrong, where, why it matters, and what a correct version would look like.

Most tasks are short — tens of minutes rather than hours — and volume comes in waves tied to project cycles. Expect a calibration phase where your scores are compared against other reviewers and against gold-standard answers, and expect to have to defend a rating in writing when it diverges.

What the platform screens for

  • Real spreadsheet depth, not familiarity. Screeners probe INDEX/MATCH vs. XLOOKUP tradeoffs, absolute vs. relative references, why a SUMIFS returns zero, array behavior, and the differences between Excel and Google Sheets that break a file on import.
  • Documented professional use. Three-plus years where spreadsheets were core to your output — finance, ops, analytics, research, consulting, program management — with specifics you can name.
  • Rubric discipline. Whether you can score to a stated standard rather than to your own preferences, and whether you distinguish a genuine error from a stylistic choice you dislike.
  • Clear written reasoning. Feedback that a model trainer can act on: located, specific, and short.

Logistics

Fully remote and asynchronous. You must be based in the United States, Europe, the UK, or Canada, hold at least a bachelor's degree, and work in English. Hours are flexible and self-scheduled; contributors commonly report 5–20 hours a week when a project is active, with gaps between projects. Pay bands of $80–150/hr have been observed on this listing and vary by project, task type, and assessed skill level — nothing is guaranteed before you are matched to a specific project.
