For advertisers & AI labs

The most targeted audience in crypto already exists. It's in Telegram groups.

Canvas puts your task in front of verified humans who are already in the community you want to reach. You pay per verified completion, not per view. No wasted budget.

Start a campaign →

A DeFi trader answering a question about lending protocols is a categorically different signal than a banner click. Canvas is the only channel that combines verified identity, community context, and task completion in a single touchpoint.

Your task runs inside the join verification flow, the moment a person is most engaged, most identifiable, and most willing to answer a question. That's a window advertisers can't buy anywhere else.

User acquisition

Pay for verified leads, not impressions.

Target Telegram groups by topic and member profile. Your sponsored task runs inside the join verification. Every person who completes it is a verified human with demonstrated interest in your product area. You pay only when they engage.

Choose groups by topic, size, and member demographics
Budget held in escrow, drawn down per verified completion
Preference signals from task responses included with every lead
Post-verification agent handoff: the bot offers your agent link to every verified member immediately after they're admitted, turning joins into warm leads

RLHF training data

Context-verified training data from the humans who matter.

Generic annotation pipelines give you random workers. Canvas gives you verified domain experts, DeFi traders ranking DeFi responses, gamers evaluating gaming content, professionals assessing professional outputs. The demographic context is baked in, not estimated.

Annotators are verified members of topic-specific communities
Response quality scored before payout releases
Scale across hundreds of groups simultaneously
Pay per high-quality completion, not per annotation attempt

Campaign flow

From budget to completion in four steps.

Choose your groups

Select from the Canvas group registry filtered by topic, member count, and engagement profile. You see the group's community context before you commit any budget.

Groups are organized by topic category: DeFi and trading, gaming, NFTs and collectors, professional networks, local communities, and more. The registry grows as more group owners register.

Set your task and budget

Write your task (or use a Canvas template), set your bid per verified completion, and lock your USDC budget in escrow. You only pay as completions happen.

Tasks are short: a ranking, a preference question, or a choice between options. Most run 2 to 4 choices. The Canvas team reviews each task for clarity before it goes live.

Members complete the task

When a new member tries to join a group in your campaign, they receive your task in a private DM. Their response is scored by AI before the completion is counted and the payout releases.

The AI scoring layer filters out non-genuine responses before any budget is drawn. You never pay for a bot click or a random keystroke. Only scored, genuine completions count.

Receive completion data

After each completion, you receive the anonymized response, the group context, and the timestamp. Unused budget is fully refunded when your campaign ends.

For RLHF campaigns: ranked, labeled responses ready for training pipeline ingestion. For user acquisition: preference signals alongside the verified lead, plus agent handoff click-through data if enabled.

Task formats

Three ways to engage your audience.

Every task format is designed to take 10 to 15 seconds. Members answer in a Telegram DM before they're admitted to the group.

Ranking

Best for RLHF data collection

Members rank two to four options from most to least preferred. Generates labeled comparison data for model training. The community context of the annotator is the differentiator.

"Rank these responses from most to least helpful. Reply with the order, e.g. B, A, C."

Multiple choice

Best for user acquisition and preference mapping

Members select from two to four options. No wrong answer for acquisition campaigns. The choice reveals genuine preference, not a correct answer. The advertiser receives the selection signal with every completion.

"You have 10,000 USDC to allocate. What would you do? Reply A, B, or C. Sponsored by Aave · no wrong answer."

Open response

Best for qualitative research and brand feedback

Members write a short free-text response. Scored by AI for genuine engagement before payout releases. Best for open-ended research questions and brand sentiment collection from specific audience segments.

"What's the biggest challenge you face when trying to manage yield across multiple protocols? One sentence is fine."

Agent handoff

Turn every verification into a conversation

After any task type, the bot can offer verified members a direct link to your brand's AI agent, right in the DM where they just completed the task. No friction, no redirect, no cold outreach. The member is already engaged, already verified, and already in context. Add-on to any campaign format.
