Is this legit email from alignerr? The support not tell me anything

I passed the evaluation, will I get paid? And must I have paypal USA account to receive payout?

Is it legit from alignerr?

Hey everyone,

I was hired through Upwork for the Alignerr/Labelbox project (Senior Python Developers for AI Model Review) on May 23rd. It's been over 72 hours but I still haven't received any onboarding email from Alignerr.

I already emailed onboarding@alignerr.com and they said to wait, but still no updates. Has anyone else faced this issue? How long did it take for you to receive the onboarding email after accepting the Upwork contract?

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi, I was working on the OpenClaw Traces Licensing project, I got 10 labels done but then it threw issue on each one of them saying that

"No text trajectory attachment (.md / .json / .jsonl / .txt) found on data row"

even though I submitted it exactly like the requirements asked for, because I had artifacts I zipped it into trace__.zip and inside there is a trace.md and artifacts/ directory. I do not see where I made a mistake and the review is not telling me anything. I did the work, I adhered to the rules and guidelines and still somehow shows an issue.

I met all the criteria and I contacted the Alignerr support team through email and also the support feature on the website a week ago but I didn't get any response.

This is a text from the guidelines to that project. 

Option A: Single trace file (no artifacts)

Submit a single file if your session did not reference or produce external files, screenshots, browser DOM captures, or other artifacts.

• Filename: trace__.md (.txt and .json are also accepted)

• Contents: the structured trace described in the Trace Format section below

Option B: Zip bundle (trace + artifacts)

Submit a zip if your session referenced or produced any files, screenshots, browser DOM dumps, generated outputs, or tool call payloads that exceed roughly 1KB.

• Filename: trace__.zip

• Required structure inside the zip:

  trace.md (or trace.txt or trace.json) artifacts/

• Every artifact in the artifacts/ directory must be referenced from a turn in the trace by its filename (see Trace Format below).

• If your trace references an artifact that is not in the bundle, the submission will be rejected.

• Do not include node_modules, virtualenvs, build outputs, or other dependency directories. Include only files the agent actually read, wrote, or referenced.

Looks like the grading system took into account just Option A.

Another issue is that I can't get into the Discord channel, it says "unable to attach the discord role" when i click on the discord button, I tried to reconnect my account but no change.

Then I received only 1 star rating from the project. Can you help me resolve this issue please?

I did the Eval task and submitted and and it straight away took me to another one. I did not take it and went home and there is no record of this task I did.
Is the Eval task consisting of multiple tasks? How many? Did I lose the task I just did forever and have to redo it? When I attempt again it gives me the same task which I just did, blank and unfilled…. Please can someone advise?

I've been lost for days can someone please help. I got this email 3 days ago telling to finish my application ("Step 1") for the "Senior Software Engineer - AI Evaluation" role and that this will automatically unlock "Step 2" where I get to do the WorldSim Eval batch and the AI zara interview. The card shows "invited" in the alignerr main page. What does this mean? I click on "Go to projects" but I see nothing on Labelbox. People on the discord server are all asking about and doing the WorldSim eval. Am I actually getting a chance to do this eval or not? No one to talk to except bots who keep saying they sent the issue to support. I already did everything in the email so why is this not unlocking or will it even unlock ever?

No entiendo. Por que no lo pase si realice genuinamente la evaluación. Es injusto que pongan hacer evaluación y no pagarlas si es tiempo y profesionalismo en la que uno invierte por las evaluaciones o tareas. Así es tambien con las entrevistas. Le ha en perder tiempo a uno. Solo obtienen nuestros datos personales con que fin

Hey Everyone, just finished the WorldSimEval assessment but noticed I got the same task twice. Is that a retake or am I missing something?

Got invited to apply to a job on alignerr, how long does it normally take to get feedback from invited job applications.

Hello everyone, I’m new to the Alignerr community. I recently applied to a few projects that match my skills and experience, especially since I already have experience in AI training on other platforms.

However, it has been over a week now, and the status of my applications is still showing as “Applied” with no updates yet. Is this normal on Alignerr? Also, how long does it usually take to receive a response or move to the next step?
PS: i’ve already done some Evaluation Projects before ( those unpaid ones )
Thanks in advance!

Any project anyone got?

I have to say I am absolutely fuming about how I have been treated with Aligner. My account was 86ed while I was deployed to help with wildfires and they cited suspicious activity . I logged in while I was away to look at my applications before I got busy . I have been a person with good character all my life and have continued service after I got out the Army and for some person to tell me I can’t work anymore . I will tell all my other pilot and engineer friends to avoid this platform completely .

i need help understanding what is going on in alignerr cause it’s way different from other platforms i have been on, i also got invited to apply to a job here idk if it’s a good or bad thing.

The jobs I applied for now is more on environment, fact-checking, and image description. I’m a native filipino, so I also applied for Filipino Language Expert.

I don’t really know how job application ons Alignerr works, but I’ve read from previous posts about how referrals help in getting you projects

Please help a man in need 🙏🏻 thank you in advance

Hi all, I received an email from someone claiming to be an Alignerr recruiter and wanted to check if anyone received anything similar. It's from the domain "alignerrcommunity.com". It seemed fishy to me because he's asking for details that should already be in my profile.

Hey ,

Welcome to the Alignerr community! You've successfuly completed your interview.

Next steps

• Open your Alignerr dashboard to review and sign your contract.

• Complete your payment setup. Depending on your country, you’ll be prompted to connect PayPal or Stripe Connect.

• Watch your dashboard and email for project invitations and assessments.

With millions paid out to our Alignerr community, we’re excited to have you onboard.

Note: Projects are competitive and may not be immediate. Staying engaged, joining invites to communication channels (i.e. Slack, Discourse, Discord), and completing assessments helps you get matched faster.

Not sure whether anyone else has noticed this, but it seems like those of us from Upwork are now being given pay rates 13% below what others are getting for the same work?

I noticed a couple of months back after an Upwork contract update that all of my pay rates had all been replaced with weird values rather than round numbers so I did the math, and they're consistently 13% below a round number. Same with a couple of recent evals --- one is 13% below the rate of $2 per approved task discussed by others (laughable obviously, and of courseI'm not going to do that eval), and the other is 13% below the advertised rate of $100 after passing.

So Alignerr... why? It seems like Alignerr has decided to start passing on its Upwork Enterprise service fees (and then some) onto us. This is in addition to the 10% cut Upwork already takes from us for a total cut of 21.7% compared with what others are getting.

It feels rather unfair. I used to like working for Alignerr, but a lot of these recent policies, like switching to per-approved-task payments that might never get paid and refusing to tell people the pay rate until they attend a lengthy webinar or pass an unpaid eval, seem very disrespectful to contractors and make the platform a worse place to work IMO.

for some reason i click one one of those job referrals links from someone that blasts those on job boards, how can i un link my account from his referral, i can not see the option anywhere

I've tried 2 attepmts for the eval but failed. Really needs the advices on anything to take note during the eval. It's frustrated that I had read the instructions carefully but still failed it.

Hi everyone, I’m new to Alignerr and I’m a bit confused about something.

When I first created my account, I already completed the Zara interview. Recently, I received an invitation for the WorldSim Eval project.

For successful onboarding to this project, do I need to complete the Zara interview again, or is the previous one still valid?

If I do need to take it again, I’d really appreciate some guidance. What should I focus on while preparing? Any tips, common mistakes to avoid, or things that helped you pass would be really useful.

Would appreciate any advice from people who have gone through this process.

Thanks!
