Get paid for what you notice: local prices, queue times, shop openings, verified by others nearby.
Ade notices fuel prices daily on his commute. Field Notes pays small USDC rewards for observations that nearby users confirm, building a trusted local data feed.
Pay people for the useful things they already notice, and give every neighbourhood a local feed that is checked by the people who live there.
Useful local facts change every day: what petrol costs at a given station, whether a pharmacy is open, how long a queue is. People who pass these places notice them and share them in group chats for free, where they vanish. Anyone who needs that information has no feed they can trust, and the people doing the noticing are never paid.
Field Notes pays people small USDC rewards for local observations, like fuel prices or queue times, once nearby users confirm them. When you own it, the data feed, the reward pool and the trusted local network belong to you, and you choose who buys access. It turns your neighbourhood's everyday noticing into a feed you control.
10 paying data buyers and 50 active contributors in one area within 60 days.
Three applications submitted to grant or accelerator programs, each with live usage numbers, within 30 days. Funding is never guaranteed; the goal is a strong, honest application.
A verified contract deployed from your wallet, a public builder profile linking to it, and at least 25 real transactions from people other than you.

Two paid data campaigns in 60 days.
DEPLOYR deploys it from your wallet. You run it from admin: choose categories, set reward sizes, fund the pool, review disputes.
At first, you fund a small pool yourself. Over time, businesses and researchers who want the data pay for access, and that refills the pool. Do not promise contributors any income level.
Rewards only pay once nearby users confirm. Start in one area where you know people, keep rewards small, and remove repeat offenders. No system is perfect, so watch the first weeks closely.
Yes. The contract and reward pool sit on your wallet. Data buyers pay you directly.
