What does the Generalist role at DataAnnotation pay?
DataAnnotation indicates Up to $50/hr for this role, but hedges the figure rather than committing to it. Treat it as an indication: HumanSourcer flags hedged pay instead of presenting it as a firm rate, and the listing's own wording is quoted in the Pay section above.

Is DataAnnotation a legitimate AI-training platform?
Reported worker-facing operating brand - and that relationship is rated "High - reported, not disclosed on portal" here because it can be checked against nymag.com rather than taken on DataAnnotation's word. Confidence describes how well the ownership is evidenced. It is not a rating of how the platform treats the people who work for it, which no public source covers reliably.
