Remote Household Activity Video Contributor AI Trainer

About this opportunity

Mercor is partnering with a leading physical AI company to collect first-person video of everyday household activities for training the next generation of robotics and physical AI systems. In this role, you will record short, first-person clips of ordinary tasks around your home, helping build and refine the datasets these models learn from. Your recordings will directly support the development of systems that can understand how people move, reach, and handle objects in real-world environments, the everyday actions that come naturally to people but remain difficult for machines to learn.

• Record short first‑person clips of normal everyday activities at home, using a simple head‑mount phone holder so the camera sees what you see.
• Example tasks: loading the dishwasher, folding laundry, wiping down counters, putting away groceries, tidying a room, making a bed.
• Upload your recordings through a provided app.
• Contributors typically record & upload 10 to 20 hours a week.

• You must be located in the United States and at least 18 years old.
• This opportunity is not currently available to residents of California, Illinois, Texas, or Washington.
• You have an iPhone (12 or newer, not including 16e or 17e), Google Pixel (6 or newer), or Samsung Galaxy (S21 or newer).
• You are able to wear a simple head‑mounted phone holder. If you are accepted and need a head mount, we can provide one at no cost.
• You have a home environment where you can record everyday activities.
