Web Research Specialist — 6-week paid contract, fully remote Pay per approved task (~$20 each) · up to 40 hrs/week · paid in USD · start once you pass the assessment What you'll do You'll build the research puzzles that frontier AI models try — and often fail — to crack. Each task is an original, real-sounding question solvable only by chaining 4–6 independent clues across the open web, each backed by an exact quote and a live source. Your work is tested against top models and reviewed for rigor — only airtight tasks count. No coding. ~4 hours per task. A task, start to finish Write a 60–120 word prompt that reads like a genuine question — your own phrasing, no copied content, no search hints. Find 4–6 clues across reputable open English sources (no Wikipedia, no paywalls) — each with a direct quote, URL, and verification date. Lock in one definitive answer and show why the near-misses don't fit. Map plausible wrong answers and which clue kills each; log your search path. Verify everything logged out; sharpen tasks models solve too easily.
