Why your work matters. The client is training AI models to produce senior-level business work from incomplete, ambiguous files. Your Golden Output shows the model what excellent looks like, and your rubric is the ruler that grades every AI attempt.

⏰ Every task must be fully signed off by Fri, Nov 13 · 11:59 PM ET.
The Basics

Key Concepts in 5 Minutes

No AI background needed. This page explains the 3 ideas the whole project is built on: the User Prompt, the Golden Output and the Rubric. Everything else in this brief builds on them.

1. The big picture: think of an exam

AI models improve the way students do: they get a question, write an answer and are graded. The client needs senior experts like you to write the answer key and the grading sheet for professional-grade work.

❓
In an exam: the question
User Prompt
The request a business user gives the AI, plus the files it should use.
Already written · don't edit it
⭐
In an exam: the model answer
Golden Output
The best answer a senior expert would deliver. It shows what excellent looks like.
You write it
✅
In an exam: the grading sheet
Rubric
A list of yes/no rules used to grade any answer, including the AI's.
You check and improve it

2. How the client uses your work

Your 3 pieces become a test the client runs on its AI models again and again.

1User Prompt + filesThe AI receives the request
→
2AI writes an answerA deck, a memo, a sheet…
→
3Rubric grades itEach rule: ✓ pass or ✕ fail
→
4Score shows the gapsThe model learns where it falls short
⭐
Where your Golden Output fits: it is the reference the AI is measured against. It must pass 100% of the rubric rules, which proves the test is fair and achievable.
💡
Why it has to be excellent
If your Golden Output has an error, the AI is taught that the error is right. If a rubric rule is vague or wrong, good AI answers fail and bad ones pass. Your expert precision is what makes the test trustworthy.

3. The User Prompt

A realistic request, written the way a busy manager would ask for it: often short, sometimes vague, with files attached. You'll find it on the first tab of your rubric spreadsheet.

Consulting
"I've got a call with the CEO tomorrow. Put together a short deck comparing the two expansion sites in the P&L model."
Legal
"Can you tell me what changed between the 2023 and 2024 supplier agreements before I sign the new one?"
Controllership
"Why is March payroll so much higher than February? I need a short note for the CFO."

Notice what's missing: no format details, no list of what matters, and files that may contain noise or errors. That ambiguity is intentional. A senior expert knows what a great answer needs anyway.

4. The Golden Output

The answer a top expert in your field would hand to a demanding executive. It must be:

AccurateEvery figure and clause traceable to the files CompleteAnswers everything the User Prompt asks Executive-gradeClear structure, bottom line first, client-ready GroundedNothing invented that the files don't support
✕ Weak answer
"Payroll went up in March, mostly because of overtime and some new people."
Vague, no figures, and the wrong main driver.
⭐ Golden Output
"March payroll rose $18,600 (+6.2%) vs. February. Two new Sales hires drove most of it ($11,200), followed by annual merit increases ($5,900) and overtime ($1,500)."
Exact, explains the cause, ranks the drivers, and the drivers add up to the total.

5. The Rubric

A checklist of rules. Each rule checks one thing and is answered pass or fail. Together the rules describe everything a great answer must get right.

Criterion"The note states the total increase as $18,600."What is checked
Accepted values$18,600 · $18.6K · 18,600Every valid way to say it
Evaluation methodProgrammatic CheckHow it's graded (see glossary)
SeverityCritical RequirementHow much it matters

What makes a good rule? Compare these pairs:

✕ Weak rule✓ Strong ruleWhy
"The memo is good.""The memo opens with a 1-paragraph Executive Summary."Objective: two graders would agree
"The memo mentions cell F118.""The memo says the total omits Insurance ($3,000)."Business language a real expert would use
"States the total and the drivers and recommends next steps."Split into 3 rules, one per itemOne thing per rule
"States the total as $48,000." (only)"Accept $48,000, or $46,500 with the error flagged."Fair to every valid expert answer

6. Try it: grade an AI answer

Pick your field, read the AI's answer, decide whether each rule passes, then reveal the grading.

User Prompt
"Short deck for the CEO comparing the two expansion sites in the P&L model."
AI's answer (slide 2)
Site comparison
• Site A: startup $120K, payback 22 months
• Site B: startup $160K, payback 14 months
• Both sites look viable
Rubric rules
1. States Site B payback as 14 months✓ Pass
2. Slide title states a conclusion (action title)✕ Fail: "Site comparison" is a topic, not a conclusion
3. Site figures shown in a native Slides table✕ Fail: bullets, not a table
⭐ Golden Output title: "Site B pays back 8 months faster despite $40K higher startup cost", followed by a native comparison table.
User Prompt
"What changed between the 2023 and 2024 supplier agreements before I sign the new one?"
AI's answer (excerpt)
The 2024 agreement reduces the liability cap from 12 months of fees to 6 months of fees. Payment terms remain Net 30. The rest of the agreement is largely unchanged.
Rubric rules
1. States the liability cap fell from 12 to 6 months of fees✓ Pass
2. Flags the new auto-renewal clause (Section 9.2)✕ Fail: missed entirely ("largely unchanged")
3. Opens with an Executive Summary of the risk shift✕ Fail: no summary
⭐ Golden Output opens with: "The 2024 terms shift risk to us: liability exposure is halved and the contract now auto-renews unless cancelled 90 days ahead (Section 9.2)." It follows with a clause-by-clause table.
User Prompt
"Why is March payroll so much higher than February? Short note for the CFO."
AI's answer (excerpt)
March payroll increased by $18,600, mainly due to overtime. New hires and merit increases also contributed.
Rubric rules
1. States the total increase as $18,600 (accept $18.6K)✓ Pass
2. Identifies new hires as the largest driver✕ Fail: says overtime ($1,500 is the smallest)
3. Breaks the increase into drivers that add up to the total✕ Fail: no amounts per driver
⭐ Golden Output: "+$18,600 (+6.2%): new hires $11,200 · merit $5,900 · overtime $1,500." The drivers add up to the total.

This is exactly why the rubric matters: the AI got the headline number right but still failed 2 of 3 rules a senior expert would care about.

The files are messy on purpose
Some [Source] files hold what you need; others are noise or contradict each other. That's deliberate: the client wants models that perform well even when information is incomplete and context is thin. Your expert judgment is the point. Decide what matters and resolve conflicts the way you would for a real client.

Module C: building the Golden Output

The first tab's Step 2 tells you exactly what to build for your task. The standards below apply on top.

1
Create the fileA new Google Doc, Slides or Sheet in your task folder, next to the [Current Reference] draft.
2
Upgrade the contentStart from the draft, verify every figure against the [Source] files and rewrite it in your own words.
3
Call out discrepanciesShow the corrected figure, the displayed figure and the exact cause (e.g., a SUM range that skips a row).
4
Link itPaste the file's link in Link to Finalized Reference Deliverable on the first tab.
Strategy & Management Consultants
Executive deck in Google Slides
  • 4–6 slides, max 110 words and 5 bullets per slide
  • Action titles: the bottom line first
  • Comparisons in native Slides tables, never pasted text tables
  • An audit callout with the corrected figure, the displayed figure and the cause
Legal Counsel & Controllers
Audit memo in Google Docs
  • Native heading styles (Heading 1, 2, 3), never typed # symbols
  • Opens with an Executive Summary: 1 paragraph plus key takeaways
  • Comparisons in native Docs tables, never pasted text tables
  • Both the reconciled and the displayed total wherever a file has an error
🔁
Prefer Word, Excel or PowerPoint?
Draft there if you like. Then upload the file to your task folder and open it as a Google Doc, Sheet or Slides file (in Drive: File › Save as Google Docs / Sheets / Slides). Re-check accuracy, content and format line by line, since conversion can break formulas, numbers, tables and layouts. The Golden Output you link must be the native Google version.

Module D: deciding on each rubric rule

Ask these questions in order for every rule on the second tab, Grading Rubric Rules.

1. Is the rule a duplicate of another rule, or does it grade a document or tab the User Prompt didn't ask for?
Yes → REMOVE
No ↓
2. Does it need a fix so that it matches the [Source] files and every valid expert answer passes?e.g., accept the corrected figure or the displayed figure with the error flagged; accept plain business wording instead of cell references like "F118"; accept standard formats like $5.79K or ($3,190)
Yes → EDIT
No ↓
KEEP AS-IS
Finally, across the whole rubric: is anything essential not tested? → ADD a new row at the bottom of the tab.
✍️
Every rule gets a justification
Whatever you choose (KEEP AS-IS, EDIT or REMOVE), write one line in Expert Justification / Notes. For EDIT, also write the new wording in Updated Criterion or Acceptable Alternative Values.

Examples

📎 Fictional task: "Write a memo for the CFO reconciling the Q3 marketing budget." The budget sheet shows a $46,500 total because its SUM skips the Events row ($1,500). The real total is $48,000.
Rule"The memo names the Events line ($1,500) as the row missing from the sheet's total."
Expert ActionKEEP AS-IS
JustificationMatches the sheet's formula, specific and easy to grade.
Rule"The memo states the Events line as $1,500.00."
Expert ActionEDIT
Updated criterion"Accept $1,500, $1,500.00 or $1.5K."
JustificationStandard formats were being rejected.
Rule"The memo states the Q3 total as $48,000."
Expert ActionEDIT
Updated criterion"Accept $48,000, or $46,500 when the memo flags that the sheet's total skips the Events row."
JustificationAn expert could validly present either figure, as long as the error is called out.
Rule"The memo corrects the $2,000 travel line."
Expert ActionEDIT
Updated criterion"The memo explains the $1,500 gap between the sheet total and the real total."
JustificationNo travel line exists in any [Source] file. Rewritten to test the real discrepancy instead of inventing one.
Rule"The memo includes speaker notes."
Expert ActionREMOVE
JustificationThe User Prompt asks for a memo, so speaker notes are out of scope.
New row"The memo recommends fixing the sheet's SUM range before the Q4 close."
Expert ActionADD (new row)
JustificationA senior controller would insist on it, and no existing rule tests it.

Module E: the sign-off on the first tab

At the bottom of the first tab, Task Brief & Sign-Off, fill in all 4 fields:

Certification Status: Approved As-Is, Approved With Updates or Flagged (see below)Fill in
Link to Finalized Reference Deliverable: the link to your Golden OutputFill in
Verified Reconciled vs. Raw Figures Summary: each corrected figure next to the displayed oneFill in
Summary of Rubric Rules Edited or Removed: which rules you changed or added, and whyFill in
Approved As-IsThe rubric needed no changes, and your Golden Output passes every rule.
Approved With UpdatesYou edited, removed or added rules, and the task is now correct.
FlaggedAn issue remains that you can't resolve within the files. Explain it in your summary.
⚖️
The golden rule: judgment yes, invention no
Where the files are ambiguous, use your expert judgment. Where a rule or the draft refers to something the [Source] files don't contain, don't invent it: EDIT the rule to test what the files actually show, and explain why in Expert Justification / Notes.
📌
Submission Platform
Work only in your task folder in Google Drive. Never edit the [Source] files or the User Prompt. When modules A to E are done, tell Human Edge on Slack right away.
⏰ Both revisions and the final QA check must be done in time for sign-off by Fri, Nov 13 · 11:59 PM ET.

  • Fix every point in one revision round (Revision 1)
  • Unclear point? Ask on Slack before you revise
Step 6
Peer review
You review another expert's task, and another expert reviews yours. The review covers 2 things only: the Golden Output and the rubric.
  • Leave comments directly in their files (Google Docs / Slides / Sheets comments)
  • Comment; don't edit their work
  • Be specific: what's wrong, where, and how to fix it
  • 2-hour cap for your review
✓
Revision Rounds
1 revision round only after the automatic QA check (Revision 1) and 1 after the peer review (Revision 2). Make each one count.

Can I use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) for any part of this work?⌄
Only to brainstorm. Everything you create and deliver (the Golden Output, rubric changes, justifications and peer review comments) must be your own work. Any AI-generated content is flagged, not delivered to the client and not paid.
How many revision rounds do I get?⌄
Two in total: 1 after the automatic QA check (Revision 1) and 1 after the peer review (Revision 2).
When and how will I be paid?⌄
By bank transfer, within 15 business days of Human Edge sign-off (when your task is delivered to the client), for the time logged in Insightful. Submit the tax form before sign-off; Human Edge will ask for your bank details at sign-off.
What happens if I miss a deadline?⌄
Every task must be fully signed off by Fri, Nov 13 · 11:59 PM ET. Turnaround times for each step are shared when your task is assigned. A task that isn't signed off by the deadline isn't delivered to the client and isn't payable.
Who do I contact for questions during the project?⌄
Message us on Slack first, since we reply fastest there. If Slack isn't working, email Esteban Toro (Lead PM) at esteban.toro@humanedgetech.ai or Thomas Manser (PM) at thomas.manser@humanedgetech.ai.
Which time is paid?⌄
Only time Insightful logs as productive time: work in the apps this project needs plus web research for your task. AI apps are flagged. Time with Insightful switched off can't be counted, so start it every time you work on your task, its revisions or a peer review.
Where exactly do I work?⌄
In your task folder in Google Drive. The rubric spreadsheet [00 Task Brief & Grading Rubric] has 2 tabs: the first, Task Brief & Sign-Off, holds the User Prompt, your task-specific instructions and the sign-off fields; the second, Grading Rubric Rules, is where you calibrate the rubric. Your Golden Output is a new Google file next to the [Current Reference] draft.
What is the Golden Output?⌄
The best-possible version of the deliverable the User Prompt asks for: accurate, complete and executive-grade, as a native Google Doc, Sheet or Slides file. You create it by upgrading the [Current Reference] draft.
What if a rule asks for something that isn't in the [Source] files?⌄
Don't invent it. EDIT the rule so it tests what the files actually show, and explain why in Expert Justification / Notes. If the issue can't be resolved within the files, set the Certification Status to Flagged and explain it in your sign-off summary.
Can I edit the [Source] files or the User Prompt?⌄
No. Use them as evidence only.
Can I draft in Word, Excel or PowerPoint?⌄
Yes. Then convert the file to Google format in your task folder and re-check accuracy, content and format line by line, since conversion can break formulas, numbers, tables and layouts. The Golden Output you link must be the native Google version.
What does the peer review cover?⌄
Only the Golden Output and the rubric. Leave comments directly in the other expert's files, without editing them, within the 2-hour cap.
What if I might not finish within the 10-hour cap?⌄
Tell us on Slack as early as possible, before you reach the cap. Time beyond the cap isn't paid.
