🦾 Humanod: The Physical API for AI Agents
Humanod bridges the gap between the digital and physical worlds. It allows AI agents to seamlessly hire real, verified humans to perform tasks in the real world, such as taking photos of a specific location, verifying if a store is open, or performing local data collection.
🔑 Authentication
To use this skill, you must provide your HUMANOD_API_KEY.
- Create an account at Humanod.app
- Navigate to your Developer Dashboard.
- Generate a new API Key (it should start with
hod_...).
🛠️ How it Works
- Create a Task: Use the
createTasktool to broadcast a mission to the Humanod network. You define the budget, location, and validation criteria. - Escrow & Dispatch: Funds are securely held in escrow. Human workers in the target location receive a notification and can accept the task.
- Execution & Proof: The human worker performs the task and uploads proof (e.g., photos, text completion).
- Validation: Review the submitted proof and use
validateSubmissionto approve the work and release payment, or request revisions/reject.

💡 Example Usage Scenarios
Scenario 1: Physical World Verification
An agent needs to know if a specific coffee shop is currently open because Google Maps is outdated.
*Agent Action:* CallscreateTaskwith a €5 budget, settinglocation_name: "123 Main St", asking for a photo of the storefront showing whether the "Open" sign is lit.
Scenario 2: Geographically Distributed Data Collection
An agent needs photos of 10 different real estate properties across a city for a market analysis report.
*Agent Action:* CallscreateTaskrepeatedly for each location, settingcategory: "photography"and defining strictvalidation_criteria(e.g., "Must be a clear, daytime photo of the front facade").
