A steady income for your group.
Your members record the work they already do: farming, tailoring, cooking, repairs. The videos help train AI and robots, and we pay the group every week for every hour that passes our check.

Questions
Asked often.
Q01Can any group join?
Yes, if members do real work with their hands, anywhere in Kenya: chamas, co-ops, youth groups, women’s groups and more.
Q02How is the money shared?
We pay the group. The group decides how to share it among members.
Q03Do members need smartphones?
Each member who records needs a phone with a 0.5× wide camera. Use our phone checker to see which phones work.
Q04Do we pay to join?
No. There are no fees of any kind. If anyone asks you to pay to join, it is not us.
