About the role
From Mercor’s listing.
Pay: $150 - $250/hour
About the work
We are building expert-authored forecasting and research data used to evaluate and improve AI models on real financial analysis. Each task asks a practitioner to reason from a fixed evidence cutoff — no hindsight — and document the judgment a strong analyst would have made at that moment.
This role covers company event propagation: identifying the companies related to an upcoming event and estimating how the catalyst should transmit to each of them.
What you will do
Map suppliers, customers, competitors, distributors, substitutes and geographic exposure from EDGAR filings, footnotes, exhibits, transcripts and industry data
Identify related companies ahead of an event and separate direct exposure from weak thematic correlation
Estimate direction, magnitude, horizon and confidence, and name the revenue, margin, earnings or valuation mechanism behind each
Review model-generated analyses and grade them against your own standard
