Hiring quality verdict.
Surge AI built a specialist crowdwork platform focused on quality over volume — higher per-task rates than industry-standard annotation platforms and a curated workforce of domain experts. Founded by Anand Kulkarni (formerly CrowdFlower), Surge targets the frontier-lab segment of AI training data where accuracy is non-negotiable. Senior RLHF roles on the platform command $80–$120/hr for specialized tasks in code, math, and legal domains.
