What you can expect

Work from anywhere

Remote, on your own schedule, from any country in the EU and beyond.

Paid per hour

Your time is tracked automatically and paid per hour worked, in euros, with invoices.

Real tasks, real record

Work for AI companies on their own data, with every contribution on your record.

Pathwize GmbH, Bonn, Germany. Payouts in euros, invoices and tax documents included.

Many people want to switch careers but feel stuck because every new role seems to ask for years of experience in that exact job. AI work is different. The companies behind these models need people who understand medicine, engineering, law, software or language. That expertise is what you already have.

Pathwize connects domain experts and students with paid online tasks from AI companies. The work is remote, paid per hour worked, and payouts are in euros with invoices. You start with a short qualification test on real data, and the business decides who joins.

Why a career changer fits AI work

AI models are trained and checked by people who know a subject well. If you can tell a correct medical summary from a wrong one, or spot a flaw in an engineering document, you can do this work.

You are not applying for a job title you have never held. You are applying your judgment to tasks like classifying images, reviewing documents and evaluating model answers. The field you come from is the point.

Jobs without experience in AI, using experience you have

Searching for career changer jobs often means searching for jobs without experience in AI. On Pathwize the experience that matters is in your field, not in AI itself.

Fields with the most experts here are medicine, engineering, mathematics, software and life sciences. If your background sits in one of these, your knowledge transfers directly into the tasks.

You do not learn to code models. You read, assess, classify and write within what you already know.

How the switch actually starts

Sign-up needs only an email. Your profile, resume and a short AI interview come later, in the app or on the web.

Before any paid task, you take a short qualification test on the customer's real data. The test is unpaid and can be retaken. A calibration round may follow, which is also unpaid. After that, every hour of real work is paid.

Pathwize is not an agency and not a survey site. It is paid work priced per hour or per task, with invoices in euros.

What this is not

This is not a promise of income or a set number of hours. Tasks open and close, and the business approves who joins each pool.

Current annotation tasks pay 20 to 24 euros per hour. Specialist evaluation and authoring tasks are priced per task. You keep control of your data, with account deletion and GDPR data access available in the app.

Questions

Yes. The experience that counts is in your field, such as medicine, engineering, software or life sciences. You apply that knowledge to tasks like image classification, document review and evaluating model answers. You do not need to have worked in AI before.

Each task starts with a short qualification test on the customer's real data. It is unpaid and can be retaken. A calibration round may follow, which is also unpaid. After that, every hour of real work is paid.

Work is paid per hour worked, with time tracked automatically. Some specialist tasks are priced per task. Payouts are made after each payout period via Stripe, in euros, with invoices.

Current annotation tasks pay 20 to 24 euros per hour. Specialist evaluation and authoring tasks are priced per task. We do not state those amounts here, and we do not promise any total income.

You receive invoices in euros and are responsible for your own taxes as a freelancer or student. Rules depend on your country and situation. This is general information, not legal or tax advice, so check with a local authority or adviser.

Work is remote and you fit it around your schedule. Tasks and pools open and close over time. We do not state a fixed number of hours, so check the live list of open tasks to see what is available now.
