About Perle
Perle is a data sourcing company dedicated to building high-quality, human-generated datasets that power the next
Perle AI builds the foundational training data that powers the world's most advanced AI models. We partner with leading AI companies to source high-quality, human-generated datasets that make AI smarter, more natural, and more capable. Our contributor network spans the globe, and our data directly shapes how AI understands and generates human language.
About the Role
We're looking for native US English speaking university students to join our AI audio training pipeline as Freelance Audio Contributors. This is your chance to be on the front lines of how AI learns to understand, process, and generate human speech. You'll record conversational audio from provided scripts, feeding directly into the training loops of next-gen AI systems.
Remote. Flexible. Project-based. Built for students.
What You'll Do
AI Voice Data Generation
Record natural two-speaker conversations from provided scripts and prompts designed to train AI speech models
Keep dialogue sounding natural and spontaneous to help AI learn authentic human conversation patterns
Ensure recordings meet technical specs: minimum 16kHz sample rate, clear audio, minimal background noise
Each file must be between 10 seconds and 1 minute in length
What You Need
Native US English speaker with a standard American accent
Access to a quiet recording environment and a reliable headset/microphone
Strong attention to detail and ability to follow written guidelines
Ability to work independently and meet batch delivery deadlines
Basic computer literacy (file management, audio uploads, spreadsheet tools)
Prior experience in transcription, voice work, or data annotation is a plus but not required
Why This Matters
Every major AI breakthrough starts with high-quality training data. The models behind voice assistants, AI-generated speech, and conversational AI all depend on real human voices and real human judgment. This isn't just a side gig. You're directly contributing to how AI evolves.
What's in it for You
$20 per 60 minutes of recorded audio
Fully remote, work from anywhere quiet
Flexible hours that fit around your class schedule
Hands-on experience inside a real AI data pipeline
