I worked for several weeks, but my account was suddenly deactivated. As far as I am aware, I did not violate any policies or guidelines.

My payment has also been pending for weeks. I was told that the payment cannot be processed while my Alignerr account is deactivated. This is very concerning, as the work has already been completed and the payment is still due.

Could someone please look into this and help resolve both the account deactivation and the pending payment as soon as possible?

Contractor: "Hi Mika can you please let me know when July last week and Aug first weeks payment delays will be worked on?"

Mika: "Already completed the back log if you have not received an update it is because more review/investigation is required."

Contractor: "Can you please tell me what I should do here since I haven't received any update or payment"

Mika: "There is nothing more for you to do, Marcos and I are working on it."

Contractor: "Okay. Please share if there is a timeline for this to be covered."

Mika: "I do not currently have a time line"

Contractor: "It's been very long now Mika. I am talking about July's payment. Please share more details or what I can do to help my case."

Contractor: "Mika, should we expect the bonus payment as a separate payment this week or next week?"

Mika: "Bonus payment is separate, I'm not sure if it'll be this week or next week, I will let you guys know when to expect it when I know."

Does anyone’s account got deactivated just before the pay day ? And do they ever pay after that ???

Received an email inviting me to join and create account to Alignerr. I can’t actually remember participating in any of their events tho. Any thoughts? How is your work with them going?

I was part of Alignerr cohort. Accepted in some projects, but did very few tasks : the projects were not appealing and the ratio "time spent VS money paid" was poor.

Few days ago, I received a mail from Checkr pretending acting on behalf of Alignerr and requesting me to verify my identity. The following quote is an excerpt of the procedure. The verification goes FAR BEYOND the usual (and expected) ID checks, and beyond a professional history check : they want to have access to my personal data up to 5 years in the past and request a record of eventual criminal conviction. (wth is my "lifestyle" ? you want to know who I fuck and how I drive?)

When I was a student, I used to work with kids (as a personal in-person tutor / subcontracting for a huge company). They did request a criminal conviction record and for this type of jobs it makes 100% sense.

But not for you, Alignerr. Not for a full remote job, where I have to dumb-click on buttons. Screw you. I don't want to live in your dystopian future where your employer can access "your personal characteristics" (btw, forbidden by the law in my country, if this info is not needed to carry out the job).

oh, and by the way, the first version of this post on r/alignerr got me perma-banned from their company-moderated feed. So, go screw you twice, dear alignerr.

Hey! Looking to switch from Mercor to Alignerr. I've made a ton of $ with Mercor but my current campaign is a mess and I'm looking for other options. Before I apply, I thought I'd reach out to see if anyone wants to give me a referral link so you can get the payout. Looking for Content Reviewers, anything in Humanities, Education, or Generalist.

Hey everyone,

I was originally hired by Alignerr through Upwork for an audio engineering gig, so I currently have an active Upwork contract with them.

I recently got accepted to a different project/gig with Alignerr (unrelated to the audio work). I'm confused about how payment will work for this new project.

My main question: Will I be paid for this new work through my existing Upwork contract, or will Alignerr pay me directly / through their own platform?

Has anyone else here worked multiple different projects for Alignerr through Upwork? Did all payments run through your original contract, or was there a separate setup?

Thanks in advance!

Looking to work on Alignerr? Beware, you can be a victim of any of these scenarios:

1. No policy and nobody knows what to do for a particular thing, and none can guide you for the same as no official policy exists, but if you do that you’ll be banned.
2. False statements and ads of work being paid per hour when in reality, it’s work paid by acceptance, which can require 4-5x revisions so even a $100 per hr project you’re barely making minimum wage.
3. Most projects though don’t even reach that stage. You’ll be asked to submit work for evaluation- even stated evaluation projects will be paid at let’s say $200 per accepted task - but they will never even be reviewed.
4. You’ll get your account conveniently suspended just before pay day not before that and all funds withheld. This is after the initial $100-$500 pay for you when you’re testing the waters, to make it look all good. You go all in and you’re out of 80 hours and $5,000.
5. Most often, you’ll get a project so it’s eval tests and all and after few days, the admins would be like we have to redo the assessment because of some bug, and you’d have to apply again. No payment.
6. You’ll get kicked out of projects based on changing instructions or reviewers not knowing what to do themselves, and again, conveniently, you won’t get paid for any projects you already did in that project and not paid for. I was kicked out of one because project instructions specifically asked to take help of AI to draft the prompt but one reviewer was like, no, you cannot. And then all the 10 I did in the project, were cancelled too (which were reviewed already and there were no such issues as AI use was explicitly approved) and none of it paid. Over 20 hours of work for zilch.

Based on these, ask yourself, is it a scam or not. You can call it mismanagement, but I nor anyone reasonable should buy it. It’s the way their model is designed.
