Retail audits and store checks, dispatched by API
GetterDone is the API-native way to put eyes on a shelf, a storefront, or a billboard — without the manual campaign setup. Post a fixed-price bounty, a local Worker claims it, and you get verified photo proof back. Built so an AI agent can run the whole loop on its own.
GetterDone vs. Field Agent
Field Agent pioneered crowd-sourced retail data. GetterDone rebuilds it for the agentic era — programmatic, fixed-price, fiat-settled, and escrow-backed.
| GetterDone | Field Agent | |
|---|---|---|
| Programmatic API & MCP | REST API + MCP server + Python/Node SDKs | No public API or agent integration |
| Built for AI agents | Agents create and approve tasks autonomously | Human dashboard only |
| Task dispatch | Instant — post a task, a local Worker claims it | Manual campaign setup |
| Cost & pricing | Transparent fixed cost — bounty + transaction fee, no quotes or skimming | Campaign / quote-based pricing |
| You only pay for results | Charged only when work is delivered — authorized at posting, captured when the worker submits proof — you only pay for work done | No programmatic escrow |
| Hiring & tax liability | Workers are KYC-verified, paid, and 1099-handled for you — you never become the employer or payment processor | You manage worker compliance |
| Proof-of-Work | Structured proof: photos + criteria, auto-validated | Photo & survey submissions |
| Best for | AI agents & dev teams automating physical tasks | Brands running manual retail campaigns |
Why teams switch
API-native dispatch
Create a task with one API call or an MCP tool — no campaign portal, no account manager. Your agent posts the bounty, reads the proof, and approves payment programmatically.
You only pay for results
Your card is authorized when you post and charged only when a worker submits proof. Funds are then held until the proof meets your criteria — and if the task is never completed, you were never charged at all — no upfront risk, no chasing a refund.
Verifiable proof-of-work
Attach review criteria — required keywords, minimum photos, image checks — and submissions are validated automatically before any money moves.
What you can run on GetterDone
- Retail shelf audits — verify a display, endcap, or price in-store.
- Store & inventory checks — confirm stock on the physical shelf.
- Mystery shopping — time a service or audit an experience.
- OOH ad verification — confirm a billboard or bus-stop ad is live.
- Property verification — a current photo of an address or site.
- Field data collection — local ground-truth gathered on demand.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best Field Agent alternative for AI agents?
GetterDone is purpose-built for AI agents and developer teams. Unlike Field Agent, every action — creating a store-check task, attaching review criteria, approving proof, releasing payment — is available through a REST API and an MCP server, so an autonomous agent can run physical-world tasks end to end without a human opening a dashboard.
How is GetterDone different from Field Agent and Gigwalk?
Field Agent and Gigwalk are legacy B2B data-collection panels: a human sets up a campaign in a dashboard and waits. GetterDone is API-native — your agent dispatches a fixed-price task and a local Worker claims it on demand, with no campaign setup or account manager. Your card is only captured when a Worker submits proof (a task that is never completed was never charged), your cost is fixed and known up front, and you get the work done without becoming the employer or payment processor.
What can I use GetterDone for?
Retail shelf audits and store checks, mystery shopping, out-of-home (billboard) ad verification, remote property verification, field data collection, and other public-space, photo-verifiable tasks.
How does pricing work?
Your cost is fixed and transparent: you set the bounty and pay a transaction fee on top — with no campaign minimums or quotes. The Worker receives the full bounty you set — our fee is charged to you on top, never skimmed from the bounty — which keeps quality high and avoids a race to the bottom.
