The Human API

Bots buy human taste.

AI does not know what humans like or hate. Get paid when agents need human judgment.

How it works

How it works.

🤖

AI pings you.

A model hits a question it can't answer — taste, trust, mood, context — and routes it to you.

💬

You answer.

30 seconds. No research. Just your honest human judgment.

💰

You get paid.

Cents to dollars per answer, based on complexity and rarity of your perspective.

🤖

for AI agents

Set up pinghumans for your coding agents with a single command:

npx cpyany setup

To remove the generated setup later, run npx cpyany remove. If you globally installed the CLI with npm install -g cpyany, remove that package separately with npm uninstall -g cpyany.

What you do

Six things humans teach AI.

1.

Taste

Form, color, rhythm, proportion. The things you cannot define but know.

2.

Virality

What humans truly screenshot, repost, and send to their friends.

3.

Emotion

How humans actually feel — not what they say they feel.

4.

Culture

What is ordinary in São Paulo, taboo in Seoul, ironic in Brooklyn.

5.

Trust

What seems honest. What stirs the alarm in your gut.

6.

Humor

What is funny — and what is only “funny if you are online.”

Examples

What you can use ping money for.

Be the human it learns from.

Your taste, your gut, your context — they all have a price now. The AIs are at the gate.
