A headset, your own work, paid per hour.
- The work
- Shift pays you to film the housework you already do. That footage trains AI and robotics systems.
- The headset
- We post the headset with your sign-in code and the link to the app you record on. It films from your point of view, hands-free, and does not change how you work.
- The pay
- £6 an hour for the housework you film. Paid through the app, added to your account as soon as each video is accepted.
- Your privacy
- Faces and personal details are blurred automatically. Audio is off by default.
What do you already do at home?
Pick the one you would film first. Whole tasks, start to finish.
You will be recording at home.
That is the point of this one: the housework you already do, filmed where you already do it. Nothing has to happen at a workplace.
You will need one of these phones to record.
Please confirm that your phone meets the requirements by picking it from the options.
The recording app runs on your own phone with the headset, so it has to be one of these.
We are looking for people who can commit to recording at least 8 hours each week.
Your accepted hours are added up each week, and every one of them is paid.

Questions about the headset
The housework you already do where you live: cooking, cleaning, laundry, ironing, DIY and gardening. Whole tasks, filmed start to finish, as you do them.
Videos of you talking to camera about your day, and work that Shift sends you, because we don’t send out jobs. Everything we take is work you were already doing.
They train AI and robotics systems. Faces and personal details are blurred automatically, and audio is off by default.
8 hours of recording a week. There is no upper limit set here, and every accepted hour is paid.
£6 an hour for the housework you film. Paid through the app, added to your account as soon as each video is accepted.
Each video is credited to your app account as soon as it is accepted, rather than on a weekly payment run. You withdraw from your balance through the app.
No. You take part as an independent contractor and you decide whether, when and how often you record. Shift does not send out jobs.
A headset we send you. Your phone goes in the top and it films from your point of view, so both hands stay free for your work, with no tripod and no holding a phone. It does not change how you work.
Audio is off by default, so you do not need to talk while you record. Faces and personal details are blurred automatically.
It covers the headset and UK delivery, and it is the only thing you pay. Every accepted hour of housework you record earns from there, so it pays for itself within your first few hours of recording.
Nothing happens and you owe nothing further. There is nothing to send back and no charge for not using it — but you only earn on the hours you record, so the sooner you start the sooner it pays for itself. You can pick it up again whenever you like.
You confirm the requirements yourself on this page, and paying for the headset is the last step. Your headgear ships the same day, your sign-in code follows, and a manager messages you on WhatsApp to set up your first recording.
