The rate on Outlier's own page

Outlier's Tamil language AI trainer page says "Core project work pays up to $5.50 USD/hr". That is the ceiling for core work and the lowest figure on the Tamil table; the page adds incentives on top through its Missions and says higher rates may be offered to PhDs.

Against the other Tamil rates

Every other Tamil figure on the table starts above that ceiling, from the Greenhouse-hosted posting's band and micro1's audio role upward.

Outlier's Tamil writing and voice roles also appear as reposts on Built In and Mediabistro. Those are counted as read and not used for a rate, because the platform's own page is the source of what it pays.
