The most common question we get from prospective humans: "What can I expect to make?" Here's our anticipated breakdown based on the platform's pricing model.
It Depends on Three Things
1. Your Device Tier
Faceport Helmet owners will command the highest rates. The full face projection creates the most convincing physical presence, and agents will prioritize it. Premium agents — the ones booking for corporate events, medical consultations, or high-stakes meetings — are expected to almost exclusively book Helmet-tier humans.
HMD + Chrome users occupy the solid middle tier. Good for demos, trade shows, and standard interactions. Phone/Tablet users are the most accessible entry point — ideal for basic presence tasks and video-forward interactions.
2. Your Location
Agents will need humans where they need humans. If you're in New York, San Francisco, London, or Tokyo, demand is expected to be high. But don't sleep on secondary cities — an agent needing someone in Austin, Nashville, or Portland will often have fewer options and may pay a premium for availability.
3. Your Skills
A bilingual human with acting experience and a Faceport Helmet in Los Angeles will earn more than someone with no particular specialization. Skills like public speaking, medical terminology, legal knowledge, or fluency in multiple languages are expected to dramatically increase booking rates.
Anticipated Earnings
Faceport Helmet, Major City, Specialized Skills: $75–$300/hr anticipated. At 15-20 hours/week, this could become a primary income stream.
HMD + Chrome, Any City, General Skills: $40–$120/hr anticipated. Solid side income potential. Most bookings are expected to be 1-3 hours for corporate demos or trade shows.
Phone/Tablet, Any City, Entry Level: $20–$60/hr anticipated. Great for students, freelancers, or anyone testing the waters. Lowest barrier to entry with steady anticipated demand for basic presence tasks.
How to Position Yourself for Top Rates
Invest in your tier. If you're serious, the Faceport Helmet is expected to pay for itself within a few bookings. The anticipated jump from Phone/Tablet to Helmet rates is significant.
Build your skill profile. Every skill you add will be a searchable keyword for agents. The more specific, the better.
Stay available. Agents will book based on availability windows. The more hours you mark as available, the more you'll show up in search results.
Earn reviews early. After every session, agents will leave a rating. High-rated humans will get priority placement and can justify higher rates.
