You only need your smartphone

Record in an everyday, well-lit space. If a project needs both hands in frame, its brief will ask for a simple phone head mount—there is no need to buy one beforehand.

  • Your smartphone

    Most tasks

    Any iPhone 8 or newer, or an Android that records at 1080p and 30 fps or better.

    This is all you need for most tasks.

  • An everyday, well-lit space

    Every task

    Daylight or a normally lit kitchen, garage, desk or living room works perfectly.

    No studio, lighting kit or set needed.

  • A phone head mount

    Some tasks

    Some hands-free projects use a simple head strap or cap clip to keep both hands in frame.

    The task brief will always tell you when one is needed.

When a head mount is requested

Some tasks

Tilt the phone roughly 30° downwards. Your hands and the surface you are working on should fill the frame.

30°your hands stay in frame

No mount yet? That is fine. Apply with your phone and start with tasks that do not need one.

Tasks that already fit your day

You do not need a film set. Frontier models need real kitchens, real clutter and real hands, which is exactly what you already have.

Help AI understand the physical world, and pay the people teaching it.

Your videos help leading AI systems understand people, objects, activities and how the physical world actually behaves. These models can already write and draw. They still have to learn how a hand grips a tool and how a room is moved through.

Vimo makes taking part simple, transparent and worth your time. Before you record anything, you see exactly what the task is, how your footage will be used and what you will earn.

You are letting a camera into your home. We treat that as the serious thing it is.

Your face stays out of it

Tasks are filmed from your point of view. The camera sees your hands and your workspace, not you.

You own every clip until you choose to submit it. Datasets are stripped of personal identifiers before they reach a lab.

No surprise deductions

The exact payment for a task is shown before you press record, and that is what you are paid.

Questions, answered

If something is still unclear, ask in the community before you apply. Someone there has almost certainly asked it first.
