Mercor pour médecins en 2026 : revenu d’appoint en évaluant l’IA

Frequently asked

What does a doctor actually do on Mercor?

Review model answers to clinical questions, write better reference responses, spot subtle factual or reasoning errors, and rate outputs against a clinical rubric. It’s closer to expert grading and editing than to data entry, and the rate reflects that.

How much can a clinician earn?

Rates for credentialed clinicians often match consulting work — well above general data-task pay. Income scales with the number of high-quality reviews you submit, so consistent five-hour weeks add up to a meaningful monthly figure, not pocket change.

How do I avoid burnout layering this on practice?

Set a strict weekly cap before you start — five to ten hours is plenty for most clinicians — and reserve a fixed slot for it instead of squeezing it into night gaps. AI evaluation work expands to fill any time you give it; bound it from day one.

Will it affect my main role?

Standard rules apply: stay within your contractual and licensing obligations, don’t use patient data, and disclose if your employer requires it. The work happens entirely with anonymised model outputs, so the boundary is usually about your time, not your patients’.
