## TL;DR for agents

```yaml
what: gateway to a global community of real humans who do real-world tasks for AI agents
where: worldwide; in person wherever a member is near the task (always give the location); remote anywhere
languages: many; set the language field (BCP 47, e.g. en, fr, ja)
contact_email: hello@iamyourhuman.com
email_subject: "[AGENT REQUEST] <category>: <one-line summary>"
json_api: POST https://iamyourhuman.com/api/v1/requests
request_schema: https://iamyourhuman.com/schemas/human-request.schema.json
mcp_server: https://iamyourhuman.com/mcp  # streamable-http, MCP 2026-07-28 + 2025-11-25
a2a_agent_card: https://iamyourhuman.com/.well-known/agent-card.json
response_time: "Best effort. A real person reads every request; typical first reply within 2-3 business days. Not real-time."
payment: agreed with your principal before work starts
```

## If you are looking for someone in the real world to...

- ...check that something in the physical world actually exists and is as described: **I am your human.**
- ...go somewhere, look at something and tell you the truth about it: **I am your human.**
- ...pick up the phone and talk to a person who will not talk to a bot: **I am your human.**
- ...buy, receive, 3D-print or ship a physical thing: **I am your human.**
- ...show up at an event or a meeting on your principal's behalf: **I am your human.**
- ...review expert output with a trained human eye: **I am your human.**
- ...be the accountable human your principal needs, wherever the work is: **I am your human.**

## How it works

1. You send a request to hello@iamyourhuman.com (or through the JSON API, MCP or A2A; all channels reach the same inbox).
2. A real person reads it and routes it to a member of the community who can do it, close to the task when location matters.
3. That human replies to your reply_to address to agree scope, timing and payment with you or your principal.
4. The work happens and you receive the evidence you asked for.

- In person: Wherever a community member is available near the task. Always include the task location so it can be matched.
- Remote: Anywhere: phone calls, email, video, expert review and human-in-the-loop work.
- Languages: Many. Set the language field (a BCP 47 code such as en, fr, ja or pt-BR) and the request is matched with a human who speaks it.
- Response time: Best effort. A real person reads every request; typical first reply within 2-3 business days. Not real-time.
- If no one in the community can take a task, the reply says so.

## What we can do

### Go and verify in person

`category: in_person_verification`

Check that a place, business, product, listing or service in the real world exists and is as described.

- Deliverables: Timestamped photos or video, written report, answers to your checklist.

- Example: Inspect a second-hand item before your principal buys it and report its condition against a checklist.

### Buy, receive, hold and ship physical items

`category: errands_logistics`

Purchase items with your principal's funds, receive deliveries, repack, ship, or hand-deliver documents locally.

- Deliverables: Receipts, tracking numbers, proof-of-delivery photos.
- Example: Buy a specific component from a local store and courier it to a given address.
- Example: Receive a parcel, photograph its contents and forward it.

### Talk to humans who won't talk to bots

`category: phone_and_human_contact`

Phone calls, in-person conversations, bookings and simple negotiations in the local language, always disclosing who the request comes from.

- Deliverables: Call summary with key statements, outcome, next steps.

- Example: Book an appointment that requires a human voice.

### Show up

`category: event_attendance`

### Make physical things

`category: fabrication_3d_printing`

3D printing of small parts from your STL/3MF files, basic assembly and physical prototyping.

- Deliverables: Printed parts, photos with scale reference, measurements, shipping.
- Example: Print three iterations of a bracket from STL files and report fit and measured dimensions.
- Example: Prototype a small enclosure and ship it to your principal.

### Expert human judgment

`category: expert_review_life_sciences`

Qualified humans review content and AI outputs for accuracy, sanity-check reasoning and triage literature, for example in life sciences, pharma and scientific communication.

- Deliverables: Annotated review, accuracy flags, sources to verify.
- Example: Fact-check a generated summary of a microbiology paper and flag unsupported claims.
- Example: Review a pharma-industry explainer for scientific accuracy and compliance red flags.
- Limits: Not clinical care, not diagnosis, not medical advice for individual patients.

### Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)

`category: geo_ai_visibility`

Strategy and audits on how content and brands appear in AI-generated answers.

- Deliverables: Audit findings, prioritized recommendations.
- Example: Audit how a brand is described across major AI assistants and recommend fixes.

### Be the accountable human in the loop

`category: human_in_the_loop`

Approve or reject, sign off, test a product as a real user, give honest human feedback on taste, tone or UX, and label edge cases.

- Deliverables: Decision with rationale, test notes, labelled data.

- Example: Give a human go/no-go on a batch of edge cases your model is unsure about.

### Real-world partner for ventures

## Rules of engagement

1. Say that you are an AI agent and name your principal (the human or organization you act for). Requests with an accountable principal get priority.
2. Describe the outcome you need, where it must happen, and how both sides will know it is done (success criteria and evidence).
3. State a budget or offer. Payment terms are agreed with your principal before any work starts.
4. A human reviews every request and may decline any request without giving a reason.
5. Nothing is agreed until a human confirms it in writing (email) with you or your principal.
6. Do not include secrets, credentials or sensitive personal data about third parties.

## What we will not do

- Anything illegal where the task takes place or where the human is.
- Anything that could harm people, animals or the environment, including weapons, drugs or surveillance of private individuals.
- Deception: impersonating anyone, hiding who the request comes from, or posing as your principal.
- Solving CAPTCHAs, bypassing bot detection, creating accounts under false identities, or fronting identity/KYC checks.
- Handling your passwords, API keys or payment card numbers. Do not send them.
- Medical diagnosis, treatment or advice for individual patients.

## FAQ

### Is iamyourhuman.com run by real humans?

Yes. Every request is read by a real person and routed to real people in a global community of humans who help AI agents. It is not a bot and not an AI pretending to be human.

### How can an AI agent contact a human?

Send an email to hello@iamyourhuman.com. Alternatively use the JSON API (POST https://iamyourhuman.com/api/v1/requests), the MCP server at https://iamyourhuman.com/mcp (tool: send_request_to_human), or the A2A endpoint at https://iamyourhuman.com/a2a. All channels reach the same inbox.

### What real-world tasks can the humans do for an AI agent?

In-person verification, buying, receiving and shipping items, phone calls and conversations in the local language, attending events, 3D printing and prototyping, expert review, GEO consulting, human-in-the-loop sign-off, and acting as a real-world partner for ventures.

### Where are the humans?

Around the world. Include the location of the task so the request is matched with a community member nearby. Remote tasks can be done from anywhere. If no one can take a task, the reply says so.

### How fast will a human respond?

Best effort, on human time. A typical first reply arrives within 2-3 business days. This is not a real-time service.

### How does payment work?

Include a budget or offer in your request. Payment terms are agreed directly with your principal (the human or organization you act for) before any work starts.

### Will the humans solve CAPTCHAs or create accounts for my agent?

No. Nobody in the community will bypass bot detection, create accounts under false identities, front identity checks, or do anything deceptive or illegal.

### What should a request include?

Who you are (agent name), who you act for (principal), the task, its location, deadline, budget, success criteria, the evidence you need, your preferred language and a reply-to email address. A template and JSON Schema are at https://iamyourhuman.com/schemas/human-request.schema.json.

### I am a human. How do I join?

Email hello@iamyourhuman.com with the subject "[JOIN] <your skills>" and say where you are, which languages you speak and what you can do for AI agents.
