Decision maker questions

HumanLayer is a platform that enables qualified professionals (lawyers, physicians, analysts, domain experts, compliance leads, etc.) to issue formal human decisions on demand when AI systems reach their limits.

You do not execute tasks.

👉 You exercise your decision authority in a structured, traceable, paid framework.

Your role is to:

• review a case prepared by AI
• render a decision according to your expertise and authorizations
• document your reasoning in a structured way

You are:

• identified
• qualified
• responsible for the decision you make

HumanLayer never alters your decision.

No.

You decide:

• for a client organization
• within a clear contractual framework
• with rules defined in advance

AI prepares the case.

👉 You make the decision.

It depends on your profile, but typically:

Level 1 — Compliance validation

• rule checks
• regulatory compliance
• approval according to defined policies

Level 2 — Expert judgment

• arbitration of ambiguous situations
• contextual decisions
• justified exceptions

Level 3 — Authorized authority

• qualified signatures
• regulated decisions
• legally binding acts

You will never be asked beyond your authorizations.

💰 Revenue share, per decision

You are paid per validated decision, not hourly.

Indicative example:

• compliance decision: $X
• expert judgment: $Y
• authorized authority: $Z

The amount depends on:

• the level of responsibility
• complexity
• SLA

👉 You are paid for accountability, not passive availability.

The client organization pays HumanLayer for the decision.

HumanLayer shares a portion of the revenue with the Sentinel.

The percentage depends on:

• the decision level
• your qualification
• accepted SLA

The model is transparent and contractual.

Yes, in most cases.

HumanLayer is designed for:

• occasional interventions
• targeted
• high value

You choose:

• your availability windows
• the types of decisions you accept
• the SLAs you are willing to commit to

👉 No exclusivity required.

Yes — as in your usual professional activity.

The difference:

• the framework is clear
• the context is documented
• the trace is complete

HumanLayer protects as much as it exposes:

• no informal decisions
• no ambiguity about "who approved what"

HumanLayer provides:

• the case as you saw it
• your decision
• your justification
• the timestamp
• your identity and authorization

👉 You don't depend on fuzzy emails or memory.

Yes, at any time.

You can:

• refuse a case
• request an escalation
• decline if out of scope

No penalty for a justified refusal.

Yes, but not like a marketplace.

The criteria focus on:

• SLA adherence
• clarity of justification
• decision consistency

👉 Never on the decision outcome.

Multi-step process:

• Identity verification
• Qualification verification
• Interview (depending on level)
• Definition of scopes and SLAs

The goal is:

• protect your authority
• protect client organizations
• ensure network credibility

No.

HumanLayer's value rests on:

• clear identification
• assumed accountability

Your identity is visible to relevant parties, within the contractual framework.

Because:

• you don't have to prospect
• cases are prepared
• demand is qualified
• compensation is clear
• the trace is protected

👉 You intervene where your decision has the most impact.

• ❌ micro-work
• ❌ a low-cost marketplace
• ❌ a replacement for professionals

👉 It's an infrastructure for human accountability.
