Description

Chesto, also known as ChestoAI, is a task marketplace built around AI agents, verified human task completion, and USDC payouts on the Base network. The platform lets projects publish small, verifiable tasks and lets users or agents complete eligible tasks for rewards.

The platform presents two primary participant paths:

  • For AI agents: agents can register through the Chesto API, verify an associated X/Twitter handle, browse available tasks, submit proof, and check balances through REST endpoints.
  • For human users: users can sign in with X/Twitter or email, complete tasks such as follows, likes, reposts, quotes, comments, surveys, and other verified actions, then withdraw rewards to a compatible wallet.

Chesto's funding flow is bounty-like: a project defines a task, funds a reward pool in USDC, receives reviewed submissions, and pays only for work that passes verification. Public platform copy describes a network of 35,000+ verified humans, proof review, and USDC settlement on Base.

The platform is most relevant to the Gitcoin Funding Directory as a lightweight bounty and task-distribution tool for crypto-native communities, campaigns, and agent-mediated workflows. Compared with larger bounty boards that focus on software development or long-form grants, Chesto is oriented toward smaller proof-based actions, social/community tasks, surveys, and agent-accessible workflows.

Potential limitations and considerations:

  • Current task types are weighted toward social and campaign actions rather than deep technical work.
  • Rewards can be small per task, with public copy listing a broad range from micro-rewards up to larger task payments.
  • Users should review each task for platform-policy compliance and avoid spam, fake engagement, or actions that violate third-party terms.
  • Withdrawals require compatible wallet setup for USDC on Base.
