Job description

Join Project Melora – English Voice Recording ($10–$25)

Help build more natural voice AI by recording short, one-sided phone calls in English. Imagine you're calling a bank, telco, or retailer for help, and speak naturally using made-up details. Each session takes only a few minutes.

Requirements

• Native English speaker, 18+
• Can read and follow short instructions in English
• Own an iPhone 17, 17 Air, 17 Pro, or 17 Pro Max
• Have a quiet indoor space to record (no TV, traffic, fans, or other voices)
• Can complete 4–10 calls, each 1–2 minutes (5 minutes max)
• Can spread calls out: no more than 3 per day, at least 3 hours apart, at different times of day across several days
• Comfortable improvising a natural, unscripted call that follows a 6-step flow: greeting, ID verification, describing the issue, pausing for the agent's reply, resolution, and closing
• Will use only fake names and account or order numbers (no real personal information)
• Willing to be recorded, give recorded consent, sign an NDA, and follow project guidelines

How it works

• Record solo calls on our secure platform. No second person is needed; pause where the agent would respond.
• Submit basic metadata after each call.

Pay: $2.50 per QA-approved session

• You need at least 4 approved sessions to be paid ($10.00), and you can do up to 10 ($25.00).
• Sessions that fail QA don't count toward payment.
• We recommend doing all 10 to get the full payout.

Why join?

It's flexible and remote, you work on your own schedule, and pay is always above minimum wage in your market.
