You spend your days reading documents and working out what they mean. AI companies need exactly that skill — people who can review legal material, judge it correctly, and explain the reasoning.
This isn’t advisory work and it isn’t labelling. You’re reviewing real legal work and explaining your judgement clearly enough that an AI can learn from it — paid for your expertise, by the hour.
Applied Clinical Judgement connects qualified people to vetted platforms, and Sean Key personally vouches for those he refers. We’re paid a referral fee by the platform on a successful placement — never by you. The roles below are live today.

No live roles match your search.
AI training work is organised by profession, task and software — not by topic or sector. Try your field (for example “nursing” or “Python”), clear the filters, or browse the categories further down the page. The always-open talent pools below are a good place to start.
What the work looks like
Reviewing documents
Read a contract, deed or filing and flag what matters — the mispriced obligation, the contradictory clause — and mark where the model got it wrong.
Writing exam-grade questions
Draft hard, realistic legal questions and model the reasoning a good lawyer uses to reach the answer.
Judging AI answers
Compare two AI-written legal analyses and say which is better, and why.
Common questions
How much does it pay?
Hourly and contractor-based, varying with seniority and role. Every role card shows its pay band. You invoice as an independent contractor and choose your hours.
Can I do this alongside my current job?
Yes — the work is flexible and part-time by design. Check your employer's policy on outside work first; ACJ can't advise on that.
