How these numbers are calculated
NearSkill lists 444 live roles advertised at $100+/hr or more, grouped into 426 role families. Of the 444 USD hourly listings, the median advertised rate is $120/hr. The middle 50% sits between $105 and $150/hr, and the full posted range is $100 to $350/hr. These are advertised rates, not earnings.
The largest sources in this set are micro1 (140), Mercor (97), AfterQuery (90), Handshake AI (48). The skills that appear most often are ai evaluation, python, technical writing, attention to detail, data annotation. 98% of this set is remote.
Eligibility is mixed: 159 listings publish country eligibility explicitly, 0 imply it in the description, 168 do not state it. 117 listings are marked worldwide. Missing eligibility is treated as unknown, not as worldwide.
Figures were computed from the live job feed on November 15, 2026. Counts and pay move as listings are added or closed. NearSkill does not estimate missing pay, and non-USD rates are excluded from the USD medians rather than converted.
Questions, answered
How many roles are live paying $100+/hr or more?
444 active listings on November 15, 2026, grouped into 426 role families. Near-identical language or region variants are grouped so one employer cannot fill the list.
What is the median advertised pay?
$120/hr from 444 USD hourly listings. The middle 50% runs from $105 to $150/hr. It is advertised pay, not earnings, and missing pay is not estimated.
Which platforms have the most roles?
micro1 leads with 140 listings, followed by Mercor (97), AfterQuery (90), Handshake AI (48).
Are these roles remote?
98% of this set is remote. Remote describes the work arrangement; it does not guarantee that the employer accepts applicants from every country.
How is country eligibility determined?
Eligibility comes from the listing's country field when it is present, or from explicit eligibility language in the description. 168 listings in this set do not state it, and those are treated as unknown rather than worldwide.
