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.

Pathwize connects domain experts with AI companies that need accurate, expert input. If you studied or work in mechanical engineering, your judgment is the thing they are paying for.

Work is remote and tracked automatically by the hour. You decide when you open a task. There is no agency between you and the work, and this is not a survey site.

What mechanical engineers work on

Tasks draw on what you already know. You might classify images of parts, assemblies or failure modes. You might review technical documents for accuracy and flag errors.

Other work means evaluating how a model answers an engineering question. Does the calculation hold. Is the material choice sensible. Is the reasoning sound. You rate it and explain why.

Some tasks ask you to write or check expert content in your area. The exact open tasks change, so look at the live list above for what is running now.

How the pay works

Annotation tasks currently pay €20 to €24 per hour. Specialist evaluation and authoring tasks are priced per task.

Time is tracked automatically while you work. You are paid for every hour of real work. Payouts are in euros with invoices, after each payout period via Stripe.

Side income that fits your schedule

This is part time remote work you fit around a job, a degree or research. You are not committing to set hours.

For mechanical engineers looking for side income or online work, the model is simple. Open a task when you have time. Close it when you are done. The hours you work are the hours you are paid for.

Getting started and the qualification test

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

Each task starts with a short qualification test on the customer's real data. It is unpaid and you can retake it. The calibration round after it is unpaid too. After that, every hour of real work is paid.

The business behind each task approves who joins its pool, so a strong profile and test result matter.

Questions

Experts and students in mechanical engineering and related fields. You sign up with an email, build a profile and complete a short AI interview. Each task then has its own qualification test on real data, and the business approves who joins the pool. You can retake the test if needed.

Current annotation tasks pay €20 to €24 per hour. Specialist evaluation and authoring tasks are priced per task rather than per hour. Time on annotation work is tracked automatically, and you are paid for every hour of real work. There are no earnings promises.

No. The short qualification test is unpaid, and the calibration round after it is unpaid too. These confirm you can do the task to the required standard. Once you are working on real tasks, every hour is paid. You can retake the test if you do not pass the first time.

Payouts are in euros with invoices, sent after each payout period via Stripe. You are paid for the hours you actually worked, as tracked by the platform.

You work when you choose. There are no fixed hours. Open a task when you have time and close it when you stop. This suits part time remote work around a job or studies.

You receive invoices for your payouts in euros, so you can account for the income where you live. Tax rules differ by country and situation, so check your local requirements or ask a tax advisor. This is general information, not legal or tax advice.
