Participants say they earn up to R$5,500 selling chore videos for AI
🎧 Listen to this story
Platforms including KGen, Hub Data, Mimix AI, Flambra, Crowtado and Claru offer tasks in which users record videos of activities such as washing dishes, sweeping, cooking and shopping. Some participants interviewed by g1 say they received up to R$5,500 in a month; Yasmin Prado, 33, says she made about R$2,000 in September and that the activity has become her main source of income. Part of the earnings may come from commissions for referrals.
As the work has grown more popular, users report that payments have fallen and that they were banned for allegedly violating platform rules. The platforms do not disclose which companies buy the videos or explain in detail how they are used for training. Requirements include being at least 18, recording through one’s own account and avoiding faces, documents, screens, photos, vehicle license plates and outdoor areas. Participants must also follow rules on framing, lighting, duration and natural movements.
Why it matters · editorial interpretation
The activity provides a source of income for some participants, but reports of falling payments and bans point to the instability of this type of work. Because the platforms do not clearly disclose who buys the videos or how they are used for training, questions about transparency and privacy also remain.
