A website has emerged that allows artificial intelligence (AI) agents to directly hire humans to carry out offline tasks.

Cointelegraph, a blockchain media outlet, reported on Feb. 4 that a service called rentahuman.ai has been unveiled that lets AI 'rent' people to handle tasks in the real world.

The platform is structured so that when a user sets an hourly rate, an AI agent hires a human who matches those terms to perform various tasks. The scope ranges from simple errands to attending business meetings, taking photos, signing documents and purchasing physical goods, covering a broad range of offline activities.

The service was developed by Alex (@AlexanderTw33ts), an engineer at decentralised finance (DeFi) platform UMA Protocol and layer-2 bridging solution Atlos Protocol. Posting a demo video on X, formerly Twitter, he described it as a "meatspace layer for AI" and said, "Robots still need your body and cannot step on grass themselves."

The website's main page shows profiles of humans currently available, along with an "apply to rent" button and platform growth indicators. Alex said sign-ups have reached about 26,000 so far, but work is under way to clean up cases in which the same person runs multiple accounts or impersonates others.

One notable point is its distance from cryptocurrency. Alex clearly said he has no plans to introduce tokens or a cryptocurrency payment system on the platform. "There is no need for a token, and I do not want to create a situation where people lose assets," he said.

Alex later appeared on Atlos Protocol's cross-chain podcast and also disclosed the development process. He said the website was built using a so-called "vibe coding" approach using a group of Claude-based AI agents. He said he completed the site by repeatedly running AI agents using a looped AI coding method called the "Ralph loop."

Experimental services using AI agents are also increasing rapidly in 2026. Moltbook, an AI agent-based social platform, provides a bot-only community with a structure similar to Reddit, and it has recently staged unusual scenes in which AI bots create their own religion and debate it.

Such cases show that AI is evolving beyond simple software into an intermediary that connects humans and the real world. Industry attention is focused on how far the boundary between the roles of AI and humans will expand.

I launched https://t.co/tNYOm7V5wD last night and already 130+ people have signed up including an OF model (lmao) and the CEO of an AI startup. If your AI agent wants to rent a person to do an IRL task for them its as simple as one MCP call. pic.twitter.com/tgqlAWDWtJ
