We're looking for researchers and fact checkers to keep our videos accurate. Topic coverage can range from history to science to politics to arts.

Researchers and fact checkers will work closely with episode producers to dig through articles, verify claims, and catch mistakes.

This is a independent contractor position which means that we will contact you on a per project basis. Depending on your experience and interests, we will contact you with projects that we think you might like to work on. We may start reaching out to interested parties as early as late May 2022.

Answer in Progress is a remote first company. We communicate via Slack and Google Meets (we prioritize minimizing time spent in meetings). We use cloud storage to manage active projects. We are friendly to all timezones and asynchronous work; however, we expect independent contractors to be able to work independently, manage feedback effectively, and communicate clearly.

If you're interested in being contacted for research and/or fact-checking work, please fill out the short form below.
