Sovrano AI

Eligibility

• Physicians go in through Sovrano's medical expert waitlist (up to $150 an hour, one of 14 waitlists in all). Applicants need an MD, MBBS or similar medical degree, must live in North America, Europe or Turkey and write English fluently, and sit a short AI interview; the remaining waitlists ask in the same way for professional experience in their own field.
• Requirements differ from role to role and are steep on the safety-review panels, where nuclear, CBRN and chemical engineering reviewers need at least 3 to 4 years of field experience, C1-level English or better, and residence in the EU, the US, the UK, Canada, Australia or New Zealand.
• Google Chrome on a desktop or laptop whose camera and microphone work: the AI interview will not run on a phone or in Firefox, Safari or Edge.
• One account each, and a genuine mobile number that receives texts, which must be verified before any contract can be accepted (VoIP services, Google Voice and landlines do not qualify).
• A CV under 2 MB saved as a PDF with selectable text; scanned images and Word files fail.
• Somewhere Sovrano can pay. It pays directly into 155 countries; for 20 others, Nigeria, Egypt and Lebanon included, it sends a link you redeem into an account held in a third country; 23, such as Russia, Iran, Venezuela and Zimbabwe, are out of reach entirely.

The sign-up steps

1. 1

   Register free

   Sovrano's sign-up page (app.sovrano.ai/signup) takes either Google or the classic route: name, email and a password at least 8 characters long that mixes letters, numbers and special characters. A verification email follows; click its link. A second account is flagged and switched off.

2. 2

   Complete the profile first

   Profiles missing a CV, skills or role summaries are deprioritised, Sovrano says, so finish all three before applying, and tune the skills you list toward the domain of the project you want.

3. 3

   Apply to one role

   No account is needed to browse what is open: the list lives at app.sovrano.ai/opportunities. After you click Apply, each role shows a checklist (complete profile, any assessment it requires, a confirmation of your work authorization); applications save as you go and can be withdrawn from the dashboard.

4. 4

   Take the AI interview

   Where the role calls for it, plan on about 20 minutes of English-language video with an AI interviewer, in Chrome, camera and microphone switched on. The Assessments tab allows as many as 3 retakes for each interview type, and free practice runs stay hidden from project leads.

5. 5

   Medical waitlist: wait for a project

   Joining the medical waitlist commits you to nothing and involves only the AI interview, because no project is attached to it. Sovrano periodically reviews who has applied and, if a project suits your background, emails you its scope, hours and rate; it says plainly that some applicants will never be contacted.

6. 6

   Safety panels: the expert survey

   Here you apply with a CV or LinkedIn profile, and a seat in the bootcamp depends on passing a short expert survey; Sovrano emails the shortlisted their invitation and guidelines.

7. 7

   Follow up if a review drags

   Depending on the project, a review takes anything from a few days to 2 to 4 weeks, and updates come by email. If 4 weeks pass without a decision, send support@sovrano.ai the project's name along with the email you registered with.

8. 8

   Sign within the offer window

   Look over the offer's pay rate, expected hours, project and start date. Accepting means three signatures (an NDA, a CIIAA covering confidentiality and inventions, and the Evaluator Agreement) plus an acknowledgement of the payout policy. Offers usually lapse within 5 to 7 days; tell support@sovrano.ai at once if yours did.

9. 9

   Enter payment details

   Your payout account may sit in a different country from the one you live or pay tax in; just name the country where it is held. Within SEPA, money arrives as a bank transfer to the IBAN; outside it, you get a secure link to redeem into whichever account you like.

10. 10

    Bootcamp week

    Before the bootcamp starts, join the Sovrano Discord, where batch questions get answered. On expert projects the opening week is set out in the post: Monday's bootcamp is paid, real tasks start on Tuesday, and roughly 10 hours of a first batch are due by Sunday.

11. 11

    Earn on accepted work

    Only tasks that are complete and accepted are paid, at your offer's rate and up to its cap on hours or tasks; extra work is unpaid unless agreed in writing in advance. Submissions that miss the project's standards can be sent back for correction, paid at a reduced amount or not paid, and you may ask Sovrano to review that call.

Tips to get accepted

• Check that a role is actually open before applying. Of the 45 posts in Sovrano's feed on 29 October 2026, 18 were open and shown on app.sovrano.ai/opportunities: 14 waitlists for experts, 3 panels reviewing safety and 1 legal case role; the remaining 27, among them all language and speech pilots and the Fall 2026 Cohort, had closed.
• Retaking an interview replaces your previous result even if the new one is worse, per the Help Center, so only retake when you expect to improve.
• Two active contracts is the most anyone may hold, and on a given project everyone shares the same rate and hour cap, so be selective.
• Confidentiality is strict: listing 'Contractor for Sovrano AI' on LinkedIn or a CV is fine, but naming a client or sharing task screenshots can get you banned for good.
• There is no phone support: email support@sovrano.ai (Monday to Saturday, Central European Time), and ask your project lead on Discord about project matters.
