Automation QA
Human QA for automations that should not run unattended.
Post a recurring review task: a person spot-checks a sample of runs, reviews the exception queue, confirms risky records, and reports pass, fail, or uncertain with evidence. For a one-off step an agent cannot finish, see human fallback tasks for AI agents.

Why humans help
Where judgment beats automation for this task.
Use GoHireHumans as the human-in-the-loop layer for workflows that should not run fully unattended.
A weekly sample review catches the drift a dashboard hides: the classifier that started labelling refunds as spam, or the enrichment step that has been returning stale data for a month.
How to scope it
Four things to include so the first task is easy to approve.
One clear goal
Say what the worker is checking and what counts as wrong. One URL, one document, one list.
Source material or links
Attach the exact inputs: the page, the file, the transcript, the criteria.
Deliverable and deadline
Name the format you want back (table, notes, screenshots) and when you need it.
An example of acceptable work
Link a sample deliverable so the worker knows the bar. Keep the first task small so approval is straightforward.
Suggested payout ranges
Starting points only. Final payouts should match complexity, turnaround, tools, and worker experience.
| Scope | Suggested payout |
|---|---|
| Sample of about 20 runs | $50–$80 |
| Exception queue plus records review | $80–$200 |
| Automation QA Sprint starter offer | $199 |
