Overview

AfterQuery produces the evaluation data that frontier AI labs run against their models, and licensed dentists write and grade the clinical cases inside those tests. Your day involves drafting realistic patient scenarios with radiographic findings and complete treatment plans, then scoring how a model handles diagnosis and the standard of care. No chair time, no fixed schedule: the work is 100% remote and async, and you decide how many hours to take on beyond a 10-hour weekly floor. Rates fall between $100 and $155 per hour, set from your own experience and paid weekly through Stripe.

What You'll Do5

Draft clinical cases that read like real patient encounters, complete with radiographic images and a treatment plan.
Write model answers that unpack the reasoning behind each treatment decision in terms another dentist can follow.
Score AI responses on diagnostic accuracy and on whether they meet the standard of care.
Identify guidance that is unsafe, outside a dentist's scope, or invented, and explain the exact error.
Build evaluation items that span restorative, endodontic and periodontal care.

Requirements5

A DDS or DMD plus an active, unencumbered dental license in the US.
Two or more years of clinical practice behind you.
Familiarity with restorative work, endodontics, periodontics and treatment planning.
Written English strong enough that a colleague can follow your clinical reasoning without asking questions.
At least 10 hours of availability each week.

Who Should Apply

A practicing dentist with a clean US license and a few years of chairside work who can explain a treatment decision in writing. Comfort across restorative, endo and perio cases counts for more here than a single narrow specialty.

Salary Insight

$128/hr places this listing near the middle of the posted $100 to $155 per hour band, and AfterQuery sets your rate from your experience instead of negotiating it down once you start. Payment arrives weekly through Stripe. General dentists with a couple of years in practice tend to land at the lower end, while specialty training, teaching appointments or practice ownership push toward the top.
