What Outlier is
Outlier, operated by Scale AI, is one of the largest AI-training platforms. You write and rank prompts, evaluate model responses, and complete coding or domain tasks that help train frontier models. Much of the former Remotasks workforce has migrated here.
What Outlier pays
| Task type | Typical rate (USD) |
|---|---|
| General AI training | $10–20 / hour |

Strong weeks on specialized projects have reached $1,500–3,000. Paid via PayPal, Airtm, or ACH bank transfer in USD.
Philippines eligibility
Outlier hires internationally; only sanctioned countries (Russia, Iran, North Korea, Belarus) are excluded. Filipinos commonly work here, pay rates and some project requirements vary by region.
Reality check
Task availability fluctuates and low quality-scores lead to removal, so treat the assessments seriously.
