Animai Tech builds and runs data platforms for AI evaluation. Contributors around the world submit original photographs and the reasoning behind them; a person reviews every one, and accepted work is paid weekly.

How it works
From photograph to payout in four steps.
One account, one review process, one weekly payout — whichever project you work on.
Create an account
Sign up and join a project. Each project you join gives you a member ID; the account stays the same.
Photograph and write it up
Submit an original photograph at full resolution with the idea behind it — or build a fully annotated task on it.
A person reviews it
Accepted, sent back for revision, or declined — always with a written reason.
Get paid weekly
Accepted work is paid weekly in crypto, to your own wallet, on the network you choose.
Two ways to contribute
Choose how much of the work you take on.
Both start from a photograph you took yourself, at least 3,000 px on the long edge and never published.
Annotated task
A complete task, ready to grade
$5per accepted submission
- A prompt a frontier model should fail
- One machine-checkable golden answer — an exact string, a number with units ± tolerance, or a closed set
- 2–12 numbered steps — perception steps with boxes drawn on the image, and reasoning steps
- A classification for the task
Referral bonus: $1 per accepted submission by someone you invited.These are ImagePuzzle’s rates; each project sets its own.

When a new project opens, you join it from the account you already have and get a member ID for it. No second sign-up, no second payout address.
For AI teams
Evaluation data you can audit.
We collect, review and keep the record for the images and tasks frontier models are measured against.
Original, unpublished, high-resolution imagery
Photographs taken by contributors and never published before, at full resolution with at least 3,000 px on the long edge.
Kept only when frontier models fail
A task stays in the set only if frontier models get it wrong, and every task has one machine-checkable golden answer.

FAQ
Questions, answered plainly.
Who can contribute?
Anyone, anywhere — no invitation needed. Create an account, join a project, and you get a member ID for that project.
You need a camera that takes photographs of at least 3,000 px on the long edge; most current phones do.
What counts as an original photograph?
A photograph you took yourself that has never been published anywhere, submitted at its full original resolution with at least 3,000 px on the long edge. Downloaded, generated or someone else’s images do not qualify.
How and when am I paid?
Weekly, in crypto, to your own wallet. Each accepted submission is paid at the project’s rate — on ImagePuzzle, $2 for an image and idea and $5 for an annotated task.
Which networks are supported?
USDT (TRC20), USDT (ERC20), USDC (Polygon), USDC (Solana) and BTC. You choose the network and give us your own wallet address. We never ask you for payment or for a wallet seed phrase.
What happens if my submission is declined?
Every decision comes with a written reason from the reviewer. A declined submission is not paid, but the reason tells you what to change next time. If a submission is sent back for revision instead, you can fix it and resubmit.
How does the referral bonus work?
When someone you invited has a submission accepted, you earn $1 for it, on top of their own payment. That is ImagePuzzle’s rate; each project sets its own.
Do I need prior experience?
No. The contributor guide explains what a strong submission looks like, and anything that falls short comes back with a written reason, so you learn the standard as you go.
Who sees my photos?
The reviewers on the project see your submission while it is reviewed. Accepted submissions become part of the AI evaluation datasets Animai Tech builds; by submitting, you grant us the right to use accepted work for that. The privacy notice explains what we store.
Your judgement is the benchmark.
Photograph what a model would misread, write down why, and get paid weekly when a person accepts it.
