What kind of work Prolific offers
Paid research participation rather than a conventional AI annotation job board. Some studies relate to AI, but researchers set each study’s eligibility criteria.
Selection and preparation focus
Complete your profile truthfully, read consent and study instructions, and answer attention checks carefully. There is no legitimate shortcut around a waitlist or demographic requirement.
Availability and payout caveat
Study volume and eligibility vary by participant profile and country. An hourly-equivalent figure for one study does not describe steady weekly earnings.
