BOUNTY TEMPLATE
Robot foundation model eval bounty
Create a compact, rights-cleared evaluation bundle for comparing VLA or robot foundation models on target tasks.
DIRECT ANSWER
This template is designed for model-evaluation buyers who need vendors to quote against specific capture, metadata, QA, rights, and delivery requirements.
Timeline
Assumes scoped capture, sample QA, and buyer-hosted delivery.
Tags
Capture requirements
- fixed task taxonomy
- balanced success/failure cases
- golden sample review
- held-out environment set
QA criteria
- no training-set leakage
- consistent labels
- model-blind task ordering
- clear pass/fail rubric
Metadata fields
- model target
- task ID
- success condition
- failure class
- environment split
Risk flags
- benchmark leakage
- small-sample overfitting
- unclear acceptance rubric
TEMPLATE RESEARCH PATHS
Use templates with datasets, tools, and specs
A bounty template should not be a standalone prompt. It should connect to source research, expected formats, budget estimation, baseline specs, and provider choices so the buyer can defend every field in the eventual request.
Before a team posts a template, it should compare public datasets, decide which fields are truly required, and specify how samples will be accepted or rejected. That turns the template from generic procurement copy into an auditable data contract.
The links below keep each template connected to the operational surfaces that make it useful: source discovery, cost estimation, format requirements, glossary definitions, and marketplace routing.

Bounty templates hub
Compare adjacent bounty patterns before committing to one capture plan, review cadence, or budget range.
Data spec generator
Turn the template into a structured intake with modality, task, geography, rights, metadata, and QA fields.
Robotics data cost estimator
Stress-test the planned hours, geography, exclusivity, and QA strictness before asking suppliers for quotes.
Dataset catalog
Use public datasets to calibrate what already exists, what is missing, and where custom data must be cleaner.
Format guides
Convert the template from plain English into file, schema, manifest, and validation requirements.
Specs and FAQ
Use the shared capture, delivery, consent, and quality baseline before writing template-specific overrides.
Training data task hub
Map the bounty to the model behavior it should improve instead of only naming a data modality.
Vendor alternatives
Decide whether the template needs a marketplace bounty, a managed service, or a specialist data partner.
