## What is Quest?

AI can write your emails and plan your trip. It can't queue at the clinic, move your couch, or shoot content for your shop. Hire a real human to do that.

Hire a Human is a marketplace for real-world tasks: errands, deliveries, event staffing, livestreaming, UGC and content shoots, and the long tail of weird jobs only a person can actually do.

Need something done? Post a quest. A human nearby picks it up.
Want to get hired? Browse quests and start earning for showing up.

What people hire humans for:
Errands and deliveries
Queueing (clinics, drops, releases, you name it)
Event and booth staffing
UGC and content shoots
Livestreaming
One-off odd jobs, the stranger the better

Formerly known as Quest - Hire a Hero. Same app, same humans, new name.

As AI gets better at everything else, humans get more valuable at this. Download Hire a Human. Hire one, or become a hero to others.

### 5/5 — Good for teens

*2026-08-01*

Easy to use and there are lots of different quests to choose from. I’ve had a good experience so far and the app runs smoothly. Definitely worth trying if you’re looking for extra income esp if your a teen

### 4/5 — Good customer service

*2026-03-30*

Professional at handling customer complaints

### 5/5 — def the best side hustle app so far in ph

*2025-09-09, version 2.13.0*

found other apps naman like Serbiz, pero this one chef’s kiss! I hope a lot of people use this cause I can vouch that it’s a lifesaver esp for a busy person like me and don’t get me started with the UI/UX 😩🫶🏻 also secure payments???? and whenever I want to earn on the side, I just send offers to posted quests I can do, now I got my preferred hero badge yayy ❤️❤️❤️

like dude if you’re still not using this, you are missing out

### 1/5 — Ads dont stop popping up

*2025-09-07, version 2.13.0*

I wanna browse on quests but the ads doesn’t stop in popping up like you can’t exit it so Im always stuck there and unable to browse o. Quests. What a waste of time!!!

### 1/5 — Not Friendly User

*2025-09-04, version 2.13.0*

This app is good but they are making it hard for both of the Citizen and heroes when it comes to their guidelines and policy. Banning account immediately without giving any warning? That is unreasonable. Dont have any idea also how long they will work on it, no email confirmation nor updates. This is not friendly for first timers especially to those who are still navigating the app. Problem that the posters encounter is - they want to accept the offer and payment will be released after the task is finished but it seems that they cannot accept the offer because it will auto pay. Most of the task cannot be done and no heroes will he selected unless the poster will agree to pay first. Not sure if this is true but overall not good. I would prefer other apps than this. Super strict. Lot of banning accounts. No warnings. No good.

### 5/5 — Many jobs available!

*2025-06-13, version 2.9.0*

As a student if youre looking for flexible jobs, this application is for you! as many of us have tight study schedules and want to earn some pocket money, Quest allows you to find jobs to work remotely or work on site for one day only! depending on some jobs, some may be more long term but like I said there is a variety of jobs!

### 5/5 — Good experience so far, completed a few legit quests in the first week

*2025-04-30, version 2.7.0*

Used the app for a month, experience so far is very nice. There is a great variety of quests from errands to social media to some random stuff, and i was surprised that i completed 2 and got like 20 bucks in the first week. Trust is a key for such platform, at least i am glad (and amazed) that my client are quite nice, and the payment was released fr and arrived quite fast

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2025-04-09, version 2.6.2*

I’ve been using Quest for a while now, & it’s honestly been a game-changer when it comes to finding side gigs. 

As a student, Quest has been perfect. The flexibility means I can earn a little extra without messing up my study schedule. I just pick up jobs when I have free time, & it’s been such a helpful way to make some money on the side!!

One of the things I appreciate most is how safe & reliable the platform feels. Everyone goes through a verification process, & there are even screening questions you can set before hiring someone to help you out!!

The app itself is also super easy to navigate. Everything from chatting with the client to handling payments happens right there in the app, which keeps things smooth & organised.

10/10 would recommend! 💯

### 1/5 — Be careful

*2025-03-31, version 2.6.1*

Be careful! I’ve had multiple quest cancellations over a couple weeks (I have multiple posts hiring) due to heroes not being able to make it, but I’ve only been notified or ONE REFUND today, and it’s not even the full amount! They deducted a portion for god knows what. It literally says in their T&C that a full refund is applicable in the case that the citizen js not at fault. I have written multiple emails but HAVE RECEIVED NO RESPONSE SO FAR. The ridiculous thing is, I have received a few emails from the  founder (probably sent automatically) checking in on my experience with my quests. Apparently the team is not fully dead since there was an update about a week ago. Why are you guys ignoring the important things? You have my money, shouldn’t you prioritise responding to my emails?

### 3/5 — New change Ai bot help not much

*2025-02-19, version 2.4.1*

Found some staff from this app years ago when it launch, team is great and constantly taking feedback. But the interface  with Ai bot coming in and causes many word to be deal as ban , payment gateway as well took long to process. Did hired a few and it’s best as can write review . Mainly student odd jobs but not many bidder nowadays unless place high pice .
