How these numbers are calculated
NearSkill lists 1,639 live roles advertised at $25+/hr or more, grouped into 1,461 role families. Of the 1,639 USD hourly listings, the median advertised rate is $75/hr. The middle 50% sits between $50 and $100/hr, and the full posted range is $25 to $350/hr. These are advertised rates, not earnings.
The largest sources in this set are micro1 (565), Mercor (332), AfterQuery (268), SME Careers (215). The skills that appear most often are english, ai evaluation, python, llm evaluation, ai training. 97% of this set is remote.
Eligibility is mixed: 643 listings publish country eligibility explicitly, 0 imply it in the description, 542 do not state it. 454 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.
