Your expertise in software development is essential

AI can generate code and handle boilerplate, but when it comes to vibe coding, it often over-engineers or misses the mark without experienced developers to guide it.

We’re assembling a team of expert coders to help AI write cleaner, more secure, and more reliable code in real-world scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is CrowdGen?

CrowdGen is the contributor platform of Appen, a publicly traded data company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange under the code APX.

We are a global leader in the development of machine learning and artificial intelligence products and services. During the 25 years that we have been in business, we have accumulated more than 1,000,000 contributors who help shape our AI technology.

Through CrowdGen, you can complete various online tasks that contribute to global AI development and research while earning income remotely. 

What is CrowdGen Pro?

CrowdGen Pro is an invite-only circle of verified experts within CrowdGen, specializing in training Large Language Models (LLMs) across various disciplines. Membership is granted based on expertise and performance.

Will there be training to make sure I complete the tasks correctly?

Yes. Before starting a project, you’ll go through a project-specific qualification test to ensure you understand the task. You’ll also have easy-to-follow guides and sometimes simulators to help you practice. Plus, you’ll receive feedback along the way so you can improve and work more effectively.

I'm already a CrowdGen contributor. Can I still join CrowdGen Pro?

Yes! If you’re already a CrowdGen contributor, you can be invited to CrowdGen Pro by demonstrating your expertise through evaluations and a strong record of high-quality work. You can find out how to qualify here.

What skills and qualifications do I need?

It depends on the project, but in general, we look for professionals, researchers, teachers, and subject-matter experts with at least a bachelor’s degree in a specialized field (e.g., mathematics, law, linguistics, STEM). Most importantly, you should be able to learn how to train AI models correctly through our upskilling program.

How can I prepare for the skills-based qualification assessment?

You’ll receive guides and training materials before taking the tests. We recommend reviewing these resources carefully before you start to ensure you understand what’s required.

Do I need to know about AI or Large Language Models (LLMs)?

Experience with AI or Large Language Models (LLMs) can be helpful but isn’t required. User-friendly guides and, for some projects, dedicated training will be provided to help you complete tasks effectively.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. Most projects do not require coding skills unless stated otherwise. If coding is ever needed, you’ll be informed in advance, and most skills can be learned as you go.

What does a typical task look like?

CrowdGen Pro tasks vary in complexity, but here are three common types:

  • Basic Task – Prompt Preference Ranking: You’ll be given multiple AI-generated responses to a question or task. Your job is to rank them based on clarity, accuracy, and usefulness.

  • Intermediate Task – Rewriting & Refining AI Responses: You’ll take AI-generated text and edit it for clarity, coherence, and factual accuracy, ensuring it aligns with human expectations.

  • Advanced Task – Red Teaming: In this task, you’ll try to “trick” the AI by crafting challenging prompts to test its weaknesses, biases, or inconsistencies. This helps improve AI reliability and safety.

Can I use AI tools like Perplexity or ChatGPT?

The use of automated tools, including generative AI, is prohibited for most projects. The goal is to gather authentic, expert-driven insights to train AI models, not AI-generated content. Using such tools may negatively impact your continued participation in the project.

How much will I earn?

As a CrowdGen Pro member, you’ll have priority access to the highest-paying projects on the platform. Your earnings depend on:

  • The complexity of the task – More challenging work usually pays more.
  • The urgency of the project – Time-sensitive tasks may have higher rates.
  •  Your qualifications – Certain expertise areas are in higher demand.

When will I be paid?

Payments are made once a month. Remember to set up your default payment method in your CrowdGen account to ensure you receive your earnings on time. You can update your payment preferences anytime through your profile.

How can I withdraw my earnings?

When you apply for your first project, you’ll set up your payment preferences on the CrowdGen platform.

You can choose or update your preferred payment method at any time. Depending on your location, you may have options like:

  • PayPal
  • Payoneer
  • Airtm
  • Direct bank transfer

Can I take on projects while working on other part-time or full-time commitments?

Yes. CrowdGen projects are designed for maximum flexibility. As long as you meet the required hours and maintain the expected quality standards, you’re free to choose when to work, making it easy to balance projects with your other commitments.

Can I choose when to work?

Yes. You have full flexibility to work whenever and wherever you want. Some projects may have a minimum weekly work requirement, but beyond that, you can set your own schedule.
