Get paid for my data
Your clicks, spare internet and judgement are worth money to AI builders. Label data on Perle Labs, share idle bandwidth on Grass, and teach AI agents by browsing on Action Model. All three are free to join. Rewards are points or payouts, so treat them as a bonus, not a salary.

Chapter 1
Who knew?
Your idle home internet can be shared with AI data collectors while you sleep.
Grass paid its Stage 2 rewards in USDC, not its own token, for epochs running from October 2024 to June 2026.
Your everyday web clicks can train an AI agent instead of only feeding ad trackers.
Careful labelling is rewarded more than speed.
You need special skills or expensive equipment.
All three are free to join with a phone or laptop. Payouts vary by region and activity and may be zero; Grass rewards depend on its Rewards Program terms and regional eligibility.

Turn spare time into labelled data
Free to join, and careful work beats fast work.
Cost Free; you spend time.
- The bold play
Own a slice of the dataset
Labelling pays once. Pooling your own app history in a Vana DataDAO gives you the dataset's token, so you share in every later use.
- Pool your data in a DataDAO and share the upside
- Label data that trains AI and get rewarded for accuracy
- Let a DePIN network use your spare internet
Cost Free; read each DataDAO's terms first.
- Build it
Build the one-click data exporter
Built by the HouseMost people never contribute because exports are messy. A tool that cleans an export and sends it to a DataDAO does not exist in simple form yet.
- Own a working onchain app with your name on it
- Parse one app's export and submit it to a Vana DataDAO.
Cost Build time.

Combos nobody marketed
- Perle Labs+a second language=
Labelling work in a less common language, where careful contributors are scarcer.
Why it works Perle rewards quality, and rarer language skills face less competition.
- Grass+an old laptop=
Idle hardware that earns while you sleep instead of sitting in a drawer.
Why it works Grass routes public web requests through spare bandwidth.
- Action Model+your normal browsing=
Everyday clicks that teach an agent instead of only feeding ad trackers.
Why it works Action Model records only the browsing actions you allow.
- Vana DataDAO+Perle Labs=
Your raw data and your careful labels both earn, from two different buyers.
Why it works Vana pays for owned data; Perle pays for labelling skill.

Where it matters most
- students in Nigeria, India and the Philippines
Many cannot get formal online work without paperwork.
- people with old laptops
Spare hardware can run a bandwidth node.
- bilingual speakers
Labelling in less common languages is often scarcer.

Questions
Is Grass really free?
Yes. Grass, Perle Labs and Action Model are free to join; you only spend time and bandwidth.
How much can I earn from Grass or Perle Labs?
There is no fixed amount, rewards depend on activity and region, and they can be zero.
Is it safe to install Grass?
Install Grass and the others only from their official sites, and read what each app collects before you run it.
Do I need crypto to get paid for my data?
Usually you only need a wallet to receive rewards, which Grass paid in USDC for Stage 2.
What do you know, in a language or a skill, that an AI still gets wrong?
Some links are referral links; they never change what we recommend.
