Prolific

We provide a platform for AI, industry, and academic researchers to gather high-quality human data. We connect them with a global community of verified, diverse, and ethically treated research participants. Our services include crowdsourcing, participant recruitment, online research, and AI data collection.

We were recognized as one of the fastest-growing businesses, appearing on the Financial Times 1000 in 2024 and the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 in 2023.

Our platform handles various data collection and evaluation projects. Participants, such as “AI Training Experts” or specialized professionals (e.g., lawyers), complete tasks like analyzing, editing, writing annotations, and judging AI model performance. These tasks help improve AI systems. We also partner with AI labs and enterprise teams for evaluation and data collection, offering advice and custom solutions.

We build products for researchers, focusing on the AI field. Our infrastructure provides data scientists and AI researchers with tools, automated pipelines, and deployment strategies to support the AI production lifecycle. We also use automation and AI-driven solutions to improve our support and go-to-market functions.

Our mission is to accelerate human understanding. We want to help people explore new ideas, build new solutions, and achieve what once seemed impossible. Our culture is driven by this mission and a set of values, including reliability, grit, diplomacy, and a bias for action, particularly within our product teams.

Prolific has 51 to 200 employees. Our work culture is mission-driven. We value reliability, grit, diplomacy, and a bias for action, which are important traits for our team members, especially in roles like Senior Product Manager. We offer remote, flexible remote, and sometimes hybrid working options.

Teams are often cross-functional, collaborating across product, engineering, services, account, support, human data, and go-to-market functions. Our small Product Marketing Manager team supports various business units.

For participants completing AI tasks, we offer competitive pay, with payments made via PayPal. For instance, some tasks pay up to $22 per task or up to £100/hr, and typical tasks pay around $30/hr or up to £25/hr.

As employees, we receive a competitive base salary, equity, and potentially a bonus or commission. We share salary ranges during the hiring process. Our benefits packages include remote, flexible remote, and sometimes hybrid working options, as well as flexible hours.

Working here, you have the chance to help shape the AI models of the future.
