RentAHuman Launches for AI-to-Human Gig Work as Questions Mount Over Real Usage

Founder-reported signups vastly exceed what the site currently shows in profiles, agents, and completed work.

Overview

  • Built by crypto engineer Alexander Liteplo, RentAHuman.ai lets autonomous agents use an MCP integration to search, book, and pay people to perform offline tasks.
  • The platform promotes crypto and stablecoin payments and requires users to connect wallets to receive funds.
  • While the site claims tens of thousands of registrants, reporters observed roughly 83 browseable profiles and about 70–82 active agents, with only 13% of users linking a wallet.
  • Early listings include errands, package pickups, sign-holding promotions, and product tests, though several remain unfilled or are structured as contests that pay only a few winners.
  • Coverage highlights security, verification, and labor concerns alongside hype, and notes the site’s rapid, AI-assisted development and a brief outage during reported early traffic spikes.
