Headway
Headway runs a mental-health provider network (over 90,000 providers and 2.6 million patients, by its own posting) and is building AI tools for patients and providers. Its Clinical Evaluator, AI Products role, posted on 14 Oct 2026, is a contract for a current licensed therapist or professional counselor with an independent, unrestricted license and 3 or more years of direct therapy experience: refine evaluation rubrics, review output from its AI tools for clinical accuracy and safety, take part in calibration rounds with peer evaluators, and help decide when a product is ready to launch. It states two roles, a minimum of 10 hours a week and $125 an hour, and asks contractors to have an LLC or S-Corp. Since 29 Oct 2026 the role has been off Headway's job board: its posting page marks it unlisted and the board's 88 postings do not include it (jobs.ashbyhq.com/headway, read 2 Nov 2026), so Headway has no AI evaluation work open on its board. Only this role is listed here, never Headway's staff jobs or the clinician roles of its provider network.

What Headway pays
Platform-stated · as of 2026-11-02Researched rate card, platform-stated, as of 2026-11-02
From Headway's Ashby posting (jobs.ashbyhq.com/headway/30482d1f-3c07-4739-916c-52d62112101b, read 25 Oct, 29 Oct and again 2 Nov 2026): evaluators are paid an hourly rate of $125, for a minimum commitment of 10 hours a week, and must set up or already have an LLC or S-Corp. Since 29 Oct 2026 the posting still states this but is marked unlisted and is gone from Headway's board (read again 2 Nov 2026), so the rate describes a role that is no longer advertised.
