Micro1

I've been building my own digital product business on the side while working my 9-5, and part of that journey has been keeping my eyes open for legitimate income streams that can run in parallel.

Micro1 caught my attention recently. They connect domain experts — engineers, data people, healthcare professionals, finance specialists, customer support — with AI labs and enterprises that need real-world expertise to train their models. Not coding jobs necessarily. If you have deep knowledge in a field, they want you to help AI systems learn how to think and reason within that field.

The specifics that stood out to me:

• Fully remote, contractor basis

• Paying $20–$200 per hour USD, depending on the role and skill set

• Open globally — not just US/Europe

• No prior AI experience required — your domain knowledge is the product

• They've raised $40M+ and have run over 1 million AI-led interviews, so this isn't a fly-by-night operation

If you're an Indie hacker who also has a technical background, a healthcare or finance career, GIS or mapping experience, or deep expertise in pretty much any professional domain, this is worth 20 minutes of your time to check out.

Current open roles include QGIS Expert, Junior FreeCAD Designer (3D Modeling), customer support, and they're regularly adding new ones across different fields.
