Embodied-AI training data

Teach robots a trade.

The next wave of robots will fold laundry, fix pipes, and work the line. They learn by watching the people who do the work, so we pay them to film it.

How it works

AI and robotics teams place bounties. We run the campaigns.

AI and robotics teams come to Inception for the POV footage they need. We collect the funds and manage the whole Pump.fun Go bounty campaign, sourcing it from the tradespeople who actually do the work.

01Demand

An AI or robotics team places a bounty

A company building robots or AI tells Inception exactly what POV footage it needs to train on, sets the spec, and funds the prize pool. One order, and they never touch the crowd.

02Managed

We get the footage or data or your money back

Inception collects the funds and launches the bounty on Pump.fun Go on the company's behalf. We manage moderation, the crowd, and payouts end to end.

03Supply

Tradespeople submit POV

Workers who actually do the job film it first-person and submit on Pump.fun Go. Every entry is judged against the spec. The spec is the rulebook.

04Settle

Winners paid, footage delivered

Up to 5 winners get paid from the prize pool. The company gets the licensed POV footage, and Inception keeps a flat 10%.

What we collect

Plumbing

Leaks, fittings, water heaters, rough-ins, fixture swaps.

ELC

Electrical

Outlets, panels, wiring, lighting, troubleshooting.

HVC

HVAC

Installs, servicing, ductwork, diagnostics, refrigerant.

We're planning to open up more trades over time. Want one you don't see here? Tell us what you need.

The format we buy

Shoot it from your point of view.

Strap a camera to your chest, hit record, and do the job. We want the work from your eyes and hands, the exact angle a robot or AI agent has when it does it. A camera on a tripod across the room is close to useless.

What you can do with it

Any volume of training data, for any model.

Tell us the task, and we source the raw first-person footage at the scale you need, for any AI agent or robotics team. Every clip is dense with what models learn from: the objects in frame, every step of the task, the hands and the motion. Label it with your own pipeline, or train straight on the raw video.

Create a bounty

Start a bounty. Fund the pool, pick the winners.

Fund a USDC prize pool for any task — a video, a thread, a build, real-world footage, anything. Most bounties run on Inception; switch the type to run a campaign on Pump.fun GO instead.

USDC is a dollar-backed stablecoin: 1 USDC = $1, real money, settled instantly.

Not sure what to budget? How big is the task:

A fair prize for a single job, 30–60 min of plumbing work is about $25 per winner. For 1 winner, budget $28 so they clear that after the 10% fee.

Up to 5 winners per campaign. Need more? Type a bigger number — $15+ per winner.

Next, fund the prize pool in USDC — held in escrow and refundable until winners are paid. By continuing you agree to the Inception Terms.

Your spec is the rulebook

The category, the brief, the deliverables — every entry is judged against exactly what you type here.

02
We review, then launch

Every funded bounty is approved by our team first — harmful or unsafe tasks never go live. Then it goes on the board.

03
Independent judging

Winners are picked fairly and paid straight from your escrowed pool — never skimmed by us.

04
Refundable escrow

Your prize pool is held on-chain in escrow and is fully refundable until winners are paid.

Done for you

Funds in, footage out

Send USDC and describe the trade in plain English. We connect the accounts, write the bounty spec, fund the escrow, and run the campaign on Pump.fun Go. You get a footage deliverable, not a crypto project to babysit.

Judged on merit

An independent reviewer picks the winners

A neutral third party scores every clip on what actually trains a model: true first-person POV, unedited, real work, no AI. We do not grade our own homework, and the best footage wins on quality, not on who posted first.

Guaranteed both ways

The loop closes every time

Buyers get usable, licensed footage, or a refund if a campaign cannot run. Up to 5 workers per campaign get paid from the prize pool, and the ones who deliver build a track record that wins them the next one.

For tradespeople

Your day on the job is the bounty.

Tradespeople, drivers, and factory workers: the skills in your hands are scarce and valuable. Film the job in POV, submit to a live campaign on Pump.fun Go, and win the prize.

  • Win a bounty, get paid in USDC. Each campaign pays up to 5 winners.
  • Film the work you already do: plumbing, wiring, HVAC, deliveries, the line.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Inception sources point-of-view video of real work and turns it into training data for robots and AI. An AI or robotics team tells us what footage it needs, we run a bounty for it on Pump.fun Go, the people who actually do that work film it from their point of view, and we deliver the licensed footage, ready for your training pipeline.

Robots, AI agents, and embodied systems are about to take over the boring, manual, repetitive work: folding laundry, fixing pipes, running the line. They learn that work mostly by watching people do it, and real first-person footage of hands-on jobs is scarce and expensive. That footage is the bottleneck, and it is what we source.

Sign in with your email or a Solana wallet, then place a bounty: pick the trade, describe the task, set a prize pool (from $1) and how many winners, and fund it in USDC from your wallet. We review every bounty before it goes live, run the whole campaign, and deliver the licensed footage. Need more than 5 winners? Pay at least $15 per winner and we split it into multiple campaigns for you.

Yes. The same first-person footage trains vision-language-action models, world models, multimodal vision models, embodied agents, and evals, not just robot policies. If your system needs to understand how people do real, hands-on work, place a bounty the way a robotics team would and we run it end to end.

Raw, clean, consented first-person clips of the work you asked for, in high resolution. They are dense with what models learn from, the objects, the steps, the hands, the motion, so they feed straight into imitation learning, vision-language-action models, manipulation policies, or evals, with your own labeling tools or none at all. Need a specific format? Tell us.

Yes, any volume, for any AI agent or robotics team. Start with a small test bounty to check the quality, then scale the prize pool to pull more submissions across many trades, hands, and real sites. The whole model is built to source data at whatever scale you need.

You fund a prize pool. 90% goes to the people who do the work. Inception keeps 10%, split evenly: 5% buys back the $ICPT token into the community treasury, and 5% funds the team. No subscription, no seats, you pay per bounty.

It sits in on-chain escrow you can verify from your campaign page, with every transaction linked on Solana. After our review the campaign goes live, and Pump.fun Go, as the neutral third party, judges the entries and pays the winners directly from the pool. If a campaign cannot run, you get a 100% refund to the wallet that funded it.

No. Sign in with just an email, place one order, and pay one price. We handle the on-chain mechanics, the campaign, and the delivery. Larger teams can pay by fiat invoice under an MSA, see the pricing page.

It is open to anyone, no application. Film a real job from your point of view and submit it to a live bounty on Pump.fun Go. The best submissions win, and each bounty pays up to 5 winners from the prize pool, in USDC. Better POV, better odds.

In USDC on Solana, paid directly by Pump.fun Go as the neutral judge once submissions are scored against the spec. We never judge our own campaigns. It is a stablecoin, so winnings do not swing with the market, and there are no minimums.

$ICPT is backed by the footage contributors create and the companies that pay to license it. 5% of every contract buys it back on the open market and holds it in a community treasury, so real demand flows into the token instead of hype. It is a community and utility token, not a promise of profit. There is a full breakdown on the token page.

Only film what you are allowed to. Many jobs need just your hands and the work, not faces or addresses. We support face, document, and background blurring, and you confirm you have the right to film the site. Never record a customer's private space or a proprietary facility without consent.

Only submit footage you have the right to share. If your employer or client owns the worksite or the work product, get their permission first. You keep ownership of what you submit and license only the clips you choose. You grant no rights to anything you do not submit.

The team that funds the campaign licenses the winning clips, with consent recorded and on-chain provenance for every one. Terms are set when the bounty is placed, so there are no surprises for buyers or submitters.

Yes. AI and robotics teams can place a bounty today, starting from $1, so you can test the whole loop with pocket change. Tradespeople can submit to live bounties on Pump.fun Go. Anyone, anywhere, can take part.
