How much does xAI (SpaceXAI) pay?

xAI (SpaceXAI)'s researched rate card says $35–$100/hr (US) (platform-stated, as of 8 Nov 2026). Every tutor posting states a band for US-based candidates and nothing at all for anywhere else ('International candidates: Information will be provided to you during the recruitment process'), so the figure here is US pay and non-US pay is genuinely unpublished. As its 10 open AI Tutor postings on its Greenhouse board stated them on 8 Nov 2026: STEM tutors (math, applied math, physics, materials science) $45–$75/hr, design, humanities and writing tutors $35–$75/hr, video tutors (weekday and weekend shifts) $40–$75/hr, and legal and compliance $50–$100/hr. The 12 language tutor postings it listed on 31 Oct 2026 ($35–$45/hr, Amharic to Yoruba) are no longer on the board, nor are the medicine, finance, software-engineering and audio-editing tutor postings this card cited on 26 Jul 2026. The rate is stated as a range, not a promise: xAI attributes the spread to experience, skills, education, geographic location and qualifications.

Tutors are hired and paid by xAI itself. Its 10 tutor postings (read 8 Nov 2026) state $35 to $100 an hour for US-based candidates depending on the role, and eligible US staff get health insurance, a 401(k) and paid sick leave; non-US pay is shared only during recruitment. xAI does not publish its pay schedule or method.
