$21–65/hr

rate as listed

Workload: ~15h/week
Engagement: Project-based
Location: US
Field: Creative

Evaluate original digital artwork or photography against AI-generated images, documenting visual differences and model artifacts. This remote US contractor role calls for precise visual analysis, concise technical critique, and a portfolio of original work.

The work

You will upload your own original digital images or photographs that meet project specifications, then compare them side by side with AI-generated counterparts. Reviews document visible deviations in anatomy, color, lighting, perspective, texture, reflections, text, and fine detail, with each issue tied to a specific location in the image.

What the screening is likely to assess

Expect questions about your portfolio, production workflow, and experience in digital art, retouching, compositing, 3D rendering, graphic design, color grading, or photography. The platform may also test whether you can distinguish model artifacts from intentional artistic choices, use accurate visual terminology, prioritize defects consistently, and write concise feedback that another reviewer can verify. Familiarity with Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, Firefly, or Flux is preferred, while prior AI experience is not required.

Tools and review standards

Relevant tools include Photoshop, Lightroom, Procreate, Blender, or similar platforms. Accuracy and methodical coverage take priority over speed, and contributors may coordinate with project staff or other reviewers to align feedback. Experience in image evaluation, data annotation, or quality assurance is advantageous but not stated as mandatory.

Logistics

This is a remote contractor role limited to candidates in the United States who are authorized to contract there. The listing does not specify typical weekly hours, assignment volume, or whether all coordination is asynchronous, so candidates should confirm scheduling and turnaround expectations during onboarding.

Interview prep — 10 questions

Matched to what this platform's screening actually measures. Answer each out loud in 60–90 seconds: claim → concrete example → implication.

What it tests: This checks whether you can verify at least two years of relevant production experience through specific roles, projects, dates, and responsibilities.
A strong answer: Give a concise timeline with the disciplines you practiced, the kinds of images you produced, and your direct responsibility for final quality. Name concrete deliverables and tools rather than describing a general interest in art.
Where people lose it: Candidates lose points by combining unrelated creative activity into an unsupported experience total or by failing to distinguish personal practice from paid or sustained project work.
