Colby's camera program: a guide for owners

Colby pays companies for video of their crews' real work. A crew member wears a phone on a headband, tipped down at their hands, and records the job they are already doing. AI and robot teams use the video to learn how hands-on work is done.

How it works

  • You sign Colby's Order Form and agreement. Your rate for each accepted hour is in your Order Form.
  • Colby sends camera kits: a phone, a headband and a battery pack, set up and ready.
  • Your crews record their normal work and upload over Wi-Fi after each shift.
  • Colby checks each video within 24 to 48 hours. You see your hours at colby.ing/portal.
  • Colby pays you for every accepted hour, as your Order Form says.

What it costs you

  • Nothing to join, and the kits come at no charge.
  • If a kit is lost or damaged at a job site, your Order Form says what you pay.
  • There is nothing to buy and no software to install.

What gets recorded

  • The hands, the tools and the work in front of the person recording.
  • Only accepted tasks. See the list at colby.ing/accepted-tasks.
  • Never offices, papers, screens or other people. Crews pause when someone walks in.

Your crew

  • Recording is each person's choice. Anyone can say no or stop any time.
  • Each person signs up in the recording app with your company's invite code, so their hours count for you.
  • Before they record, give each person the crew sheet and the keep-out card (colby.ing/learn).

The places you work

  • If you work in a building you don't own, ask the building manager first.
  • Use the letter at colby.ing/learn/building-letter, and keep the signed copy.

The video

  • Colby owns the video and may share some of it with AI and robot teams.
  • The video is about the work. It is not a test of your crew.

Getting started

  • Talk to the person who gave you this, or sign up through the link they sent you.
  • Questions? Call or text Colby at (480) 542-7526.
