Job description
About the company
Prolific is focused on building a large-scale pool of high-quality human data for AI development. The platform is used by more than 35,000 AI developers, researchers, and organizations to collect data from paid study participants with a broad range of experiences, knowledge, and capabilities.
Role overview
This position is for fluent Arabic speakers who can serve as evaluators for AI research. The work centers on checking how well AI understands and reproduces Arabic, especially the Saudi dialect, with attention to natural speech patterns, nuance, and authenticity.
You will review text and voice samples side by side, listen to audio clips, and judge whether the voice sounds natural and culturally appropriate. The work is fast-moving and your attention to detail will directly affect the quality of the AI evaluation process.
What the work involves
- Compare written and spoken samples to judge quality and authenticity.
- Listen to AI-generated audio and rate how natural the delivery sounds.
- Spot tone, pronunciation, or phrasing that feels off or culturally unsuitable.
- Check whether intonation fits the conversation’s context.
- Provide structured feedback on naturalness, tone, and authenticity.
What you should bring
- Strong Arabic fluency, with confident command of everyday natural speech.
- Ability to notice fine differences in accent, tone, and vocal expression.
- Good English communication for following instructions and reporting findings.
- Very high attention to detail.
- Background in linguistics or translation is an advantage.
- A quiet place to work and quality headphones or speakers.
- A PayPal account for receiving payments.
Compensation and work format
Researchers who need this skill set typically pay between $20 and $26 per hour. Tasks are paid, and some require about one uninterrupted hour to complete, although many are shorter. This is a flexible research-based opportunity, and participants can join after passing the assessment.
