Overview

micro1 operates a remote data collection platform that pays people to record everyday household activities from their smartphones. This role involves filming routine chores with a head-mounted camera to help train AI systems, with flexible work from home.

What You’ll Do

Capture household tasks using your smartphone during specified physical tasks
Record synchronized video footage from a first-person point of view
Complete device compatibility check and AI-enabled interview during onboarding

Requirements

Own a compatible smartphone (iPhone 12+, Google Pixel 6-9, or Samsung Galaxy S21+)
Comfortable wearing a phone mount/head strap
Physical capability to perform repetitive movement tasks safely
Eligible to work in the U.S.
Located in one of the 37 specified U.S. states

Who Should Apply

This suits people who are already home, have compatible equipment, and don't mind being filmed doing mundane tasks—think gig workers, stay-at-home parents, or early retirees looking for flexible, low-commitment work. It will frustrate anyone who values privacy, needs predictable scheduling, or wants work that feels like a career investment; this is task-based pay for data collection, not a job with growth.

Salary Insight

The posting shows $15–$15/hr, which appears to be a flat rate—the range notation may indicate regional variation or just how it was listed. This is minimum-wage or near-minimum-wage pay that does not scale with experience. You're paid only for submitted video that meets project guidelines, meaning rejected footage earns nothing; factor in the upfront cost of a head strap (reimbursed after 20 hours), equipment downtime, and the fact that much of your hourly work may not qualify for payment.

Application Tip

Be prepared for fast-track identity verification—you have 48 hours once contacted to complete it, or you lose the slot. Lead with clarity on which compatible phone you own and your location (one of the 37 states), since eligibility gates everything. Most applications will fumble on the realistic time investment: the $20 signing bonus and head-strap reimbursement only come after 20 paid hours, so confirm upfront that you can commit to that volume without seeing return money first. Mention if you have reliable home internet and a quiet, consistent space for recording.
