How it works.

Find a task that fits.

Tell us about your site and typical work. Together, we identify the right tasks and opportunities for your site.

Agree on a plan.

Before filming, we agree on what to record, your team’s role, and payment terms, along with how the recordings may be used.

Record and receive payment.

Our operators help you record the agreed tasks. We review the footage against the agreed requirements and pay for recordings that meet them.

Questions?

What will this involve for our team?

Episode operators guide your team through onboarding, equipment setup, and recording. Together, we plan a schedule that fits your site and agree on responsibilities and costs before starting.

What about confidential work and employee privacy?

We agree on areas, processes, and information to keep out of the recordings, including customer details. Employee consent and any details that need to be hidden or blurred are addressed in the project plan before filming.

How is payment decided?

Each project has its own rate, recording requirements, and payment schedule, agreed in advance. Payment covers footage that meets those requirements; recording time alone does not determine payment.

What are the recordings used for?

Recordings may be used to train and test AI and robotics systems. Before filming, the agreement defines who may receive the footage and how they may use or share it.

Who owns the footage, and how long is it kept?

The project agreement sets out ownership, usage rights, how long footage is kept, and when it can be deleted. These terms are settled before recording starts.

Let’s work
together.
