What Terac is

Terac runs paid research studies and expert evaluation tasks for AI work. Its "roles" are mostly studies, such as "Software Engineers: Paid Code Review for AI Agent Evaluation" or "Dermatologists: Evaluation of AI Diagnostic Outputs", rather than long contracts. Its jobs are published through an Ashby job board at api.ashbyhq.com.

Who it hires

In today's data this site lists 46 postings marked "Contract" on the board (staff roles are left out). By country the largest groups are: United States 37, Brazil 3, United Kingdom 2, Japan 1 (7 countries in all). The studies target professionals, for example engineers, clinicians and nurses, and some are posted in German.

Listed pay

Pay is rarely published as a structured field, but most study descriptions have a "Compensation" line. This site reads that line: in today's data 45 of 46 postings show a rate, 26 as a one-off amount for the study and 19 per hour. Postings without a readable rate show none. These are rates as listed in the posting, not offers, so check each opportunity before you apply.

Countries

Some studies name a market, as the counts above show, but eligibility is not stated, so check each study. Terac's rules on which countries can join as an expert, and any ID or tax requirements, were not found in its public documents, so they are not verified.

How applying works

You create an expert account on Terac and then apply to individual opportunities. Terac's documentation says anyone with an account can take part in its referral scheme without having completed opportunities themselves (referral policy). A sitemap sample also showed that closed listings can stay online and read "This listing has closed", so a stale page is not a live opening (Terac sitemap).

Is Terac legit?

Evidence in favour: it publishes a full referral policy with a stated cap and bans on misleading claims, and its postings sit on a standard company job board. Evidence against: no independent reviews, complaint patterns or payment reports were gathered for this page, so there is nothing to confirm or contradict its reliability. Treat it as not verified and read the study terms before sharing any personal data.

Payment

Referral earnings are added to your regular Terac balance (referral policy). The cash-out method for study pay is not stated in the pages read, so it is not verified.

Pros and cons

  • Pro: short, specialist studies suit people with a professional background.
  • Pro: the referral policy is public and allows sharing on social media and in professional communities (policy).
  • Con: the rate sits in each study's text, not in a structured field, and one-off study amounts are hard to compare with hourly rates.
  • Con: Terac may change commission rates and the earnings cap, and a commission can be reversed if a one-time submission is later rejected.
  • Con: most openings are for the United States.
