What the work involves

You build litigation problems from scratch and then judge how a model handles them. A typical task starts with a fact pattern — a breach of contract complaint with a shaky arbitration clause, a discovery dispute over privilege logs, a 12(b)(6) motion that turns on whether a claim is pled with Rule 9(b) particularity — and asks you to write the reference answer plus the reasoning that makes it correct. That reasoning matters more than the conclusion: the labs need to know why a competent litigator would move to compel rather than move for sanctions, or why a persuasive-sounding argument dies on a procedural bar the model never noticed.

The grading side is the other half. You read model output on motions, discovery plans, and case assessments and score it against a rubric, with written justification. The most valued skill is catching output that reads like good lawyering but fails — misstated standards of review, cases cited for propositions they do not hold, arguments that would be waived, relief the court cannot grant on that posture.

What the platform screens for

  • Verifiable credentials first: JD, active US bar admission, and at least two years of litigation practice at a firm, in government, or in house.
  • Hands-on procedural depth: the screen probes specific motions you drafted and argued, discovery you managed, and rules you have actually applied — not doctrinal familiarity.
  • Written reasoning: you will be asked to explain a judgment call in plain prose. Muddy writing is a real screen-out here, because the deliverable is the writing.
  • Error detection: expect a scenario where you must say what is wrong with a plausible-looking argument and how you would know.

Logistics

Fully remote and asynchronous, no client contact and no fixed calls. Work is claimed in batches, so volume flexes week to week; the stated floor is 10 hours. Pay is weekly via Stripe at a rate set from your experience, and the $100–200/hr band is what contributors have reported rather than a guarantee. Practicing attorneys should confirm the engagement against their firm's outside-work and conflicts policies before starting.
