Commissioned capture
$2.50 per accepted clip. Nothing for the rest.
Buying an existing dataset is the 25/75 split above. Asking for footage that does not exist yet — a named task, filmed in real homes, to your spec — is priced per clip instead. You commit the full amount before anyone films, and it is drawn down only by clips that pass the published acceptance criteria.
- You pay, per accepted clip
- $2.50
- Flat, published, identical at 10 clips and 10,000. Committed up front and drawn down one accepted clip at a time.
- The household earns, per accepted clip
- $1.00
- Paid to the family that filmed it — into a parent's account for a kid capture — as soon as the clip is accepted.
- A rejected clip costs
- $0
- Every clip is scored the moment it lands against criteria published before you spend anything. Your bar is 70% or higher, and a clip below it is never delivered.
- Clips nobody captures
- Refunded
- When the set closes — filled, closed by you, or past its deadline — the unspent remainder goes back to the card that funded it.
Frequently asked
- Are there any hidden fees?
- No. Marketplace sales are a flat 25% to Node Data; commissioned capture is a flat $2.50 per accepted clip. Stripe payment processing fees (typically 2.9% + $0.30) come out of the gross price before the split — see the math in Pricing & revenue.
- Is uploading free?
- Yes. Anyone can upload a model or dataset and publish it for free. Open-source listings are not charged storage fees.
- How fast do payouts arrive?
- Payouts run on a rolling 7-day clearing window via Stripe Connect. Cadence (daily, weekly, monthly) is configurable in the dashboard. A capture reward is paid when the clip is accepted, not when the set closes.
- Can I set my own price per clip?
- No, and that is deliberate. $2.50 is fixed platform-wide so households never have to compare offers and buyers never bid each other up. What you choose is the volume, the number of distinct homes, and the quality bar. Volume changes the size of the commitment, not the rate.
- Do I get the clips exclusively?
- Under the standard terms you are the only buyer while the set is running and you take delivery first; afterwards the clips may be licensed by other developers, which is why the rate is what it is. Genuine exclusivity is a separate negotiation and a different price — ask before you fund, not after. The full text is in the buyer terms.
- Can I negotiate a lower platform fee?
- On marketplace sales, yes — volume sellers, marketplace partners, and long-tail catalog providers should reach out to sales. The per-clip capture rate is not negotiable in either direction.
- What about hosted inference?
- Hosted endpoints are billed per active replica-second and per inference call, passed through at our cost plus the standard 25% if you are selling access to others.
