39 live listings · updated Sep 25, 2026
Finance is the highest-velocity field on this board right now. Labs are hiring accountants, auditors and analysts in volume because financial reasoning is where their models still fail in expensive, checkable ways.
The work
Not data entry, and not a job. It is expert review, done through a web dashboard, paid by the hour for the hours you log.
A model produces a valuation, a reconciliation or a tax treatment. You verify whether the arithmetic holds and whether the method was right in the first place — the second is what they actually need.
You build the kind of question that separates competence from pattern-matching: a revenue recognition edge case, a consolidation with minority interests, a deferred tax calculation that reverses.
AML and KYC projects ask you to judge whether a flagged pattern is genuinely suspicious and whether the model reasoned its way there properly. These run consistently and pay well.
Pay
Every figure here is read from the platform's own listing. Where a listing shows no rate, it is not counted rather than estimated. Based on39 hourly listings open today.
Rates are the starting figure on each listing. The top of a range usually goes to the most senior applicants, and some listings pay per task or per project instead — the board marks which.
Eligibility
Platforms verify credentials, so apply where you genuinely fit. This is who these listings are written for:
Honest caveats
The parts people find out after they have already spent an evening on an assessment:
Getting accepted
The screening is the whole gate. These are the things that decide whether a strong applicant gets matched to a project.
US GAAP, IFRS, local GAAP — say which. A model being trained on US filings needs someone who works in US GAAP, and the listing will not always spell that out.
Financial services, SaaS, manufacturing and real estate have different accounting realities. Naming yours matches you to project scoping faster than a generic accounting summary.
Deal sizes, entity counts, the scale of the audits you have run. Concrete scope reads as senior in a way that "extensive experience" does not.

FAQ
For the top-rate expert work, a professional qualification is usually what unlocks it. Plenty of listings accept strong practical experience without one, particularly in AML, bookkeeping and analysis. The listing states its requirement.
Live rates for finance listings are shown above, taken directly from the platform. Qualified accountants and specialist compliance work sit near the top; general analysis and bookkeeping review sit lower.
It is entirely self-scheduled, so most people scale it down in busy season and pick it back up after. There is no minimum commitment on most projects, though a project with a lab deadline may ask for a burst of availability.
That is between you and your employment agreement. Public accounting firms often have outside-work and independence policies that require disclosure or approval. Check before you start rather than after.
You are reviewing model output, not auditing an entity, so classic independence rules generally do not bite. If a project ever involves a company you audit, raise it with the platform and step off it.
Mercor runs the most finance listings and the highest rates. Alignerr posts finance specialist tracks regularly. DataAnnotation is the reliable fallback for general work between expert projects.
Typically a recorded interview about your background plus a short practical exercise — reviewing a worked calculation or explaining a treatment. Have your reasoning ready to say out loud; they are testing judgement, not recall.
Yes, though the highest-rate listings are often US-locked because they train on US filings and tax code. International accounting and IFRS projects do appear, and non-US listings are marked with their eligible regions on the board.

How I make money, stated plainly: other than my goal of helping people find this work, the referrals make me money. If you sign up through one of my links and get hired, the platform pays me a referral fee out of its own pocket. It does not come out of your pay, it does not change your rate, and it does not change your odds of being accepted.
