Your robot has never met a child. Kids can teach it.
Name what your robot gets wrong around kids. Kids film exactly that in their own homes, with a parent’s consent on every clip, and you pay only for the clips that pass.
Are you a parent? Set up a family household on nodedata.aiNearly all robot training video was filmed by adults.
Robots learn from video, and nearly all of it was filmed by adults, in labs or perfectly tidy rooms. So when a household robot meets a child, it has nothing to go on: not how small they are, how fast and unpredictably they move, or that the thing tugging at its arm wants to play rather than be moved out of the way.
It can’t tell a toy from clutter, a game from a mess, or when to stop and let a kid help. A robot that doesn’t understand children can’t interact with them safely, let alone engage with them.
So kids are going to teach it.
Almost nobody else can collect this. Filming children needs a parent’s consent, and a robotics company has no relationship with families to ask. We built the consent path before the camera: recording, sharing with you, and AI training are three separate parental permissions, checked again on every clip.
From the task your robot fails to the clips that fix it.
You name the failure
Describe what your model gets wrong around kids: the task a child will film, the objects that must be in frame, how many clips, and from how many homes.
You fund it up front
Clips wanted × $5.00, held by Node Data. Nothing is drawn down until a clip passes, and whatever nobody films comes back to you.
Families film it
Alpha School families pick the task up in the ND GO app. A parent approves every clip a child records. No faces, no audio, no location — enforced on the phone.
Every clip is graded
Scored against 4 published criteria the moment it lands. A clip that passes is yours to download; one that fails costs nothing. Disagree with a grade and you can dispute it.

Kids will grow up with robots at home.
Node Data’s job is to make sure robots understand kids and can interact with them.
