What the work involves

micro1 is engaging native and near-native English speakers for a read-aloud speech recording project that helps train next-generation AI speech systems. The work is straightforward but exacting: you are given English text and prompts, you read them aloud following the pronunciation and pacing guidelines, and you submit clean audio files through the tools provided. You follow each prompt's instructions exactly — including reading the answer choices where the task asks for it — without adding your own responses or interpretations, keep your delivery consistent across sessions, re-record anything that misses the quality bar, and flag prompts that are unclear or broken rather than guessing.

Your recording space needs to be quiet and your setup stable, and the project kicks off on Monday, October 19. Contractor role, fully remote, US-based speakers only. No prior AI experience is required — clear speech and careful instruction-following are what matter.

What you'll do

  • Read provided English prompts aloud accurately and naturally, following pronunciation and pacing guidelines
  • Follow each prompt's instructions exactly — including reading answer choices when asked — without adding your own responses
  • Record and submit clear audio files using the tools or platform provided
  • Keep your delivery consistent across sessions: same clarity, enunciation and pace
  • Re-record and resubmit takes that don't meet the quality standard
  • Flag unclear, ambiguous or technically broken prompts instead of guessing

Requirements & eligibility

  • Native or near-native English speaker with clear, natural spoken delivery
  • Able to read written text aloud smoothly, without stumbling or a monotone
  • Strong attention to detail and the discipline to follow instructions exactly
  • A consistently quiet space for recording, with no background noise
  • Reliable internet connection
  • A smartphone or computer that records clear audio
  • US-based (posting: "Remote (U.S.-based only)")
  • Preferred (not required): voice work, audiobook narration, voiceover or audio recording experience
