About the role

What you will do

  • Perform unscripted, improv-style scenarios of everyday household activities: cooking, tidying, folding laundry, and similar tasks in a staged home environment.
  • Interact conversationally with a voice assistant while you work through each scenario. Natural, spontaneous dialogue is the core of the job.
  • Bring the skills you already have. Improvisation, character work, and comfort performing without a script are exactly what we are hiring for.

Who we are looking for

  • Age 18 or older, located in or near Columbus, Ohio.
  • Improv training or performance experience at any level: classes, student troupes, community theatre, open mics, voice work, or live entertainment. Aspiring and amateur performers are encouraged to apply.
  • Comfortable being recorded on camera and audio for a full session.
  • Reliable and able to arrive on time for scheduled shifts.

We welcome performers of all backgrounds and experience levels. A wide range of voices, speech patterns, and physical presence makes the resulting AI more representative of the real world.

Compensation and logistics

  • Pay: $50 per hour in 4-hour sessions ($200 per session), paid same day. Rates are flexible upward for performers with significant improv, voice, or stage experience.
  • Time: 4-hour shifts. Book one session or work recurring shifts through the summer. Repeat performers are welcome and prioritized for scheduling.
  • Location: Discovery District, Columbus, OH. The exact address is confirmed when your session is scheduled.
  • Dates: Sessions start the week of July 27 and through September 2026. Both weekday and weekend slots available.
  • Referral bonus: Refer a performer who successfully completes a session and earn $100. No limit on referrals.
