AI Work PlatformsBETAClosing · annotation winding down
AI training work including creating tasks for general and coding agents, writing expert rubrics and data annotation.
Stellar says it is closing and winding down annotation efforts. Existing contributors can still log in to check their balance, request payment of remaining funds and manage their account.
Official homepage and former application route, observed 11 October 2026. The notice states no final shutdown date, payment method, withdrawal deadline or payout schedule; earlier weekly PayPal advertising does not establish current wind-down terms.
In the 10 September 2026 captures, Stellar advertised generalists at $25/hour+, junior engineers at $35–$100/hour, senior engineers at $70–$160/hour and machine-learning engineers at $80–$200/hour. These are historical advertisements; Stellar now says it is closing and winding down annotation efforts.
The old homepage said demand could affect rates; the engineering cards advertised a guaranteed-hours option without its conditions. Currency and geography were unspecified. These figures do not establish current work, current rates or payment of remaining balances.
A contributor in a public worker discussion said they were accepted while working from Poland and that their tasks were in English.
