Time/week spent: 5h - 20h

Initially, more time was spent learning the tools and understanding the guidelines, which could take up to 20 hours a week. As proficiency increased, the time spent decreased to around 5-10 hours weekly, focusing on actual annotation work. The time was not consistent week to week, as it depended on the availability of projects and personal efficiency. This side hustle is generally part-time, with more time required upfront for learning. Online, people often mention that the demand can vary, with some weeks being busier than others.
