YOUR STORY STARTS HERE
It seems like everyone is making money on your data except for you.
We help you get your payments from your data.
Start with what is already yours.
Beta opens October 1, 2026. US, 18 or older. The demo runs on your device.
Mass Employment pays people for their perspectives, and credits them for their real-world context on their content which data labs can't get anywhere else.
Your files stay on your device. You choose what to list, what to answer, and on what terms.

Where things stay and where they go
Stays on your device
- Your files
- File names and paths
- Previews and private notes
- The vault itself
Crosses only when you choose
- Coarse facts about files you list
- Fingerprints that recognize copies
- Signed offers and receipts
Only if you turn listing on. Turning it off deletes it.
Goes straight to the buyer
- One encrypted unit, after you accept its license
- From your device to the buyer’s own storage
- We never hold it or its key
Diagram with three columns: your device, Mass Employment, and the buyer. Your files stay in the first column. Coarse facts cross to the second column only when you choose. An encrypted unit goes from the first column to the third and never passes through the second.
How it works
- Your files stay putYour files stay on your device.
- Buyers fund firstBuyers fund a specific call before anyone looks.
- You decide, act by actYou choose whether to look, offer and deliver, act by act.
- You keep the creditDelivery goes to the buyer's own storage, and you keep the credit and the record.
What is true today
Anyone, at any skill level, can make money with AI using Mass Employment. The Beta opens on October 1, 2026, and you can create your account and try the private folder demo today.
We want people to get credit for their content and to be paid fairly for it. Mass Employment has negotiated agreements with frontier labs and data purveyors to purchase licenses to the data from our users.
The one number
About 870 million dollars
Scale AI reported about 870 million dollars of revenue in 2024, almost all of it paid for human-generated and human-labeled data.
Source: Scale AI reporting, checked 28 August 2026. Another company’s number, shown to size the market.
What you can count on
- You get paid for the data you choose to license.
- Mass Employment has negotiated agreements with frontier labs and data purveyors to purchase licenses to the data from our users.
- A single person’s data is not enough to get purchased on its own. Bulk combinations of many people’s data are valuable. Mass Employment puts yours together with other people’s, and that is what a buyer licenses.
- Every request shows its price before you decide, and your files stay on your device until you say otherwise.

Or try a folder firstHow it works
Your files are not inventory. Cataloging a file means nothing commercial. Listing, looking, offering and delivering are separate acts, and each one asks you.
Start on your device
Runs in your browser. No account.
We cannot see your files. That is not a policy; the platform has no place to put them.
Private browser demo- ChooseSelect one folder in a supported browser. You stay in control of browser permission.
- IndexThe tab reads the folder and builds a private index on this device.
- ReviewSee a first finding without uploading your files or creating an account.
Read the full device boundary
Your files stay where they are. This tab (or the companion app) reads them to build a private index called your vault. Nothing derived from an unlisted file ever leaves. If you list a folder, coarse facts and fingerprints about its files go to Mass Employment so requests can find you. If you deliver work, it goes encrypted from your device to the buyer’s own storage. We never hold it and never hold the key.
What can leave, and only when you say so
- Listing rows and the context you wrote, if you turn listing on.
- Signed offers and receipts.
- The encrypted unit that goes to the buyer and never to us.
If you turn listing on, we hold what you told us about your files: the kind, the quarter, the county, counts, tags and a signature that lets copies be recognized. Never the file, never an exact place, never anything about health, faith, sexuality, your body, immigration or children. Turning it off deletes it.
Six separate decisions
- Open the call.
- Permit inspection.
- Review the disclosure preview.
- Offer.
- Accept the license.
- Deliver.
A call opens a question. Nothing is taken down, awarded or frozen on a machine verdict alone.
