Data annotation jobs
Data annotation and data labeling jobs — entry level, remote, paid per unit
trainee.digital pays per labeled unit, not per application. Pass one free quality review, earn $5, and the full order feed unlocks — including work you can start with no prior annotation experience.

Your earnings are units × the order rate. There is no hourly wage and no guaranteed volume: you take the units you want from open orders, and how much you make depends on which orders are open and how fast you work accurately.
The quality review: what is actually checked
Access to paid orders is gated by one free assessment task, not by a CV. You label a 50-unit sample once — one attempt, no cost — and a human reviewer scores it.
| What we score | How it is judged | Bar |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy | Your labels vs. the reference answer for the sample, class by class. | Counts toward the 70% score |
| Consistency | Same case labeled the same way across the sample; no drifting rules. | Counts toward the 70% score |
| Completeness | Nothing skipped or left unlabeled; boundaries follow the rubric tolerance. | Counts toward the 70% score |
| Guideline compliance | Only the provided label set is used; ambiguous cases are flagged with a note instead of guessed. | Pass / fail |
- Result arrives in 24–48 hours after you submit.
- Pass the quality review and $5 is credited to your balance, plus the $5 welcome credit from signup — $10 total on a passing account.
- Passing also unlocks the full order feed, including premium orders that are visible but locked before vetting.
- Fail and nothing is charged to you; the account simply stays unvetted.
Getting paid
- Balance builds from approved work plus the $5 welcome credit and the $5 assessment credit.
- Minimum withdrawal is $100. Below that the balance stays on the account.
- Withdrawal is a request: you submit your payout details from the dashboard and we process it manually.
- Client-side approval gates order payments: funds release when the client approves the delivered batch.
- No fees are charged to performers — we do not sell courses, tools or \u201cpriority access\u201d.
