Collector opportunity
Smartphone Video Data Collector - Argentina
TrueLabel accepts Argentina-based collectors for smartphone video collector opportunities at $16-$22 per approved hour of usable footage. Smartphone video collection uses a recent phone to record approved real-world task sequences in stable, well-lit clips. You shoot in landscape at 1080p or higher, keep the phone steady, and frame the object and hands clearly. No mount is required. You submit raw clips through TrueLabel and are paid only for footage accepted after review. Neighborhood-shop and kiosk item handling leads demand in Argentina, followed by apartment-kitchen and patio sequences. Payouts are denominated in USD and settled by transfer to your Argentine bank account at a USD-pegged rate; you add your account during onboarding and accepted work is paid through the twice-weekly queue.
Before you apply
In this Argentinacollector opportunity, you record approved task footage that shows how everyday actions happen from the collector's point of view. The footage helps physical AI and robotics teams learn from real hand-object motion, device framing, surfaces, and task flow rather than from staged or synthetic examples.
Start by reviewing the opportunity details below, then use our background pages on first-person video data, hand-object interaction data, and egocentric video privacy and consent to understand why stable framing, raw uploads, and privacy discipline matter before you submit a sample.

What you will record
This is an evergreen collector opportunity for people in Argentina who can record stable smartphone footage of approved real-world task sequences. Use a recent iPhone or Android phone, shoot 1080p/30fps or higher in landscape, turn off beautify and effect filters, and brace the phone for stability. A matching brief may ask you to capture tasks such as household handling, desk activities, object movement, task variations across neighborhood shops and kiosks, apartment kitchens and departamento living spaces, patios and interior balconies, with raw files and clear framing. The single most common rejection is recording in portrait or with an in-app filter still enabled.

| Where you record | Typical Argentina settings include neighborhood shops and kiosks, apartment kitchens and departamento living spaces, patios and interior balconies, home workspaces, in spaces you control with no private information in frame |
| Repeat captures | object movement, task variations, and controlled task variations when the brief asks for multiple examples |
| Qualification sample | A passing sample proves you can produce a stable, well-lit, raw landscape clip at 1080p+ with the object and hands clearly in frame. |
