Kitchen & Cooking Video Capture — United States

As a Kitchen Capture contributor, you record first-person video of cooking, meal prep, cleanup, and kitchen tool use in your home kitchen. The footage trains AI systems used in cooking assistants, recipe tools, and kitchen robotics.

Scenes include knife work, stovetop cooking, oven loading, dishwashing, and food storage. Each capture is one full cooking task (a single recipe or meal prep block), typically 20–60 minutes.

This is one of our most popular sub-categories — flexible scheduling, work-from-home, and the cooking you'd be doing anyway.

This variant is open to contributors based in the United States. Pay is $15/hour USD, fixed flat rate, paid via direct deposit (ACH) on a bi-weekly cadence. US contributors typically run two to four captures per week and complete the first paid batch within 7–10 days of approval.

Claru contractors are independent — no fixed hours, no minimum commitment. You take captures that fit your schedule and skip the ones that don't.
