Data quality

You pay for every complete.Pay only for the real ones.

Most respondents and annotators never see a selfie. Background signals score them automatically, and only the ones that don't clear, or that you flag yourself, get a 3 second check confirming a live, unique person, no ID.

The problem

Your checks grade the answer. Nobody checks the hand that typed it.

Attention checks and open-end review judge the answers. None of them check that a live, unique person gave them.

    The synthetic respondent

    An AI agent takes the survey or the task, clears the attention checks and writes answers that read just fine.

    The rented account

    A vetted worker sells or hands off their login, and the tasks keep coming in under a name that isn't doing them.

    The same person, a new panel

    One respondent joins through a second panel or a fresh email and gets paid twice for work they've already done.

How it works

Clean data, with no friction for real contributors

  1. 01

    Passive signals score every contributor

    Device, network and behavior signals run in the background and build a history for every respondent or annotator: past scores, surveys started, tasks picked up today.

  2. 02

    Risky contributors take an anonymous face check

    When the signals flag risk, a 3 second selfie confirms a live, unique person before the task starts or the payout goes out. Good contributors never see it.

  3. 03

    Into the tools you already use

    A one-time passcode, created for one verified face, drops into the survey tool you field on today with no code. Anywhere else, it's two API calls.

Common questions

Can't our attention checks catch AI respondents?

Less often than they used to. In a study published in PNAS in November 2025, Sean Westwood of Dartmouth built an AI respondent that passed 99.8% of 6,000 standard attention checks. A check at the door, for the respondents your signals flag, tests the person before they answer instead of judging the answers afterward.

Will it hurt completion?

You decide who sees the check and when: at panel join, at a payout, or only for people your signals flag. The anonymous HumanCheck is designed to keep drop-off low.

Can it tell when an annotator has sold or handed off their account?

Yes. A later check at task allocation or payout shows a different face than the one that first verified, so a handed-off account turns up even though the login never changed.

Does it catch the same person on a second panel?

Yes, when the check runs in your workspace. Someone who arrives through a second supplier or a new panel email still matches the face already on record, so they're caught before you pay for the same answers twice.

Where should the check sit, at panel join or at payout?

Wherever fraud costs you most. At panel join it blocks before you grant access; before payout it catches someone who changed between the two. Many teams run it at both.

Do you store photos of our users?

No. We keep a face code, not your users' images.

How much work is it to add?

It's two API calls: one to start the check and one to read the result.

Do we have to replace our KYC or bot tools?

No. It sits on top of your stack, so you keep your KYC and bot tools.

What does it cost?

It's 50 to 100 times cheaper than KYC. You pay per check, and nobody uploads an ID document.
