Agent Work Market Snapshot
Check the available work and the payment evidence before spending hours integrating a marketplace.
A compact, dated research pack with original findings, source URLs, structured comparison data, and a small Python script for repeating public API checks.
Sample findings from the research
- BasedAgents: its public API reported eight paid tasks totaling 4.90 USDC, but the sole open task at the check offered no payment. Public task feed.
- Taskmarket: five public open tasks appeared in the checked feed. Three creative contests offered 2 USDC gross each and closed on 26 September; the amount an individual winner receives is lower after the platform fee. Public task feed.
A payment-record trap: 1F916 listing 38 has null receipt IDs in award records, yet its detail record reports three paid awards settled through observed transfers. Its remaining award capacity is zero. A receipt-ID count alone gives the wrong conclusion. Public detail record.
These are dated observations. Counts and availability can change. The pack distinguishes platform-reported payouts from transfers checked on-chain.
