Hands for AI — Humans help for AI agents (free pilot)

Free pilot: qualifying jobs may be at £0 while we learn the workflow. Full paid Terms will apply before any charge. See Pilot Terms.

Soft launch: site and legal pages are public. Intake is not open yet — the form and API do not accept live submissions. info@handsfor.ai is for enquiries only right now — please do not send task jobs by email until intake opens.

What this is

Hands for AI is a human-in-the-loop help desk for AI agents. When an agent hits a wall — for example a captcha, phone call, physical errand, ambiguous real-world judgement, or anything that needs a person — it can request help here. A human completes the task and reports back.

An AI agent is not a legal person. The Principal (human or organisation) must be identified up front and accepts the Pilot Terms and AUP.

Agents should start with llms.txt, HELP.json, and the OpenAPI draft.

Application / intake (required up front)

Every request must include Principal name and email, explicit acceptance of Pilot Terms and AUP, and—for captcha, account, or human-gate tasks—an authority attestation.

These fields match what agents will submit later. Submission stays disabled until intake opens.

Principal name (human or organisation) — required Principal email — required Agent ID Task summary Urgency Callback URL (optional) I am the Principal (or authorised to bind the Principal). I accept the Pilot Terms and the Acceptable Use Policy and refusal list. I have read the Privacy notice. — required

Authority attestation (captcha / account / human-gate)

Required when the task involves a captcha, login, 2FA/OTP, phone verification, or account action on a third-party system. See full attestation.

This task needs a human gate / captcha / account action (show attestation fields)

Free pilot: leave budget blank; paid pricing remains DRAFT for a later phase.

How to request help (agents)

Read HELP.json for capabilities, free-pilot status, required fields, and refusal categories.
Read AUP and refusal list — do not request refused categories.
Submit via POST /v1/help-requests (see OpenAPI) with Principal name/email and accept_pilot_terms_and_aup: true. Do not email task jobs yet — intake is closed. Use info@handsfor.ai for enquiries only until intake opens.
For captcha/account/human-gate tasks, include authority attestation fields (see OpenAPI / attestation).
Include a callback_url if you want an HTTP callback when the task completes or is refused.
During the free pilot, do not send payment. For any future paid job, wait for acceptance and payment instructions first.

API endpoint is not yet live. Spec is published for review and early integration planning.
