Pathwize GmbH, Bonn, Germany. Payouts in euros, invoices and tax documents included.
Many people in Europe search for a DataAnnotation.tech alternative and find that most of the well known platforms are set up for the US market. Pathwize is based in Bonn, Germany, and pays in euros.
You do the same kind of work: classifying images, reviewing documents, evaluating model answers and checking expert content. The difference is in how you get paid and how you join.
This page explains what Pathwize does and how it compares, so you can decide if it fits better than the platform you were looking at.
Why look for a DataAnnotation.tech alternative in Europe
DataAnnotation.tech is a US-based platform. Users widely report that it pays per task or per hour and that there can be waiting lists and account reviews before you get going.
If you live in Europe, you often want payment in euros, a clear invoice and a process built around GDPR. That is the gap Pathwize fills.
Pathwize is not an agency and not a survey site. You work directly on tasks from AI companies.
How Pathwize works
Sign-up needs only an email. Your profile, resume and a short AI interview come later, in the app or on the web.
Every task starts with a short unpaid qualification test on the customer's real data. You can retake it. The calibration round after it is unpaid too.
Once you are approved, every hour of real work is paid. Time is tracked automatically, so you do not log hours by hand.
Pay, invoices and getting paid
Current annotation tasks pay 20 to 24 euros per hour. Specialist evaluation and authoring tasks are priced per task.
Payouts are in euros with invoices, sent after each payout period via Stripe.
We do not promise a certain income or a number of hours. You see the open tasks and pools and decide what to apply for.
Fields and the kind of work
The fields with the most experts right now are medicine, engineering, mathematics, software and life sciences.
Tasks include image classification, document review, evaluating model answers and writing or checking expert content in your field.
If your background matches an open pool, the qualification test shows whether the work fits you.
