I figure that, as they are volunteers, they are not paid, and that is OK
with them, otherwise, they would not have volunteered.
As for where they are gotten from, when you first install and open the app,
you choose whether you are a blind person or a volunteer.

Because the app developer is in Europe, most of the helpers are in Europe. I
have never read anything about how the helpers are compensated, but they do
have a funding stream at least until September. I believe that at some point
there will have to be a revenue generating model, perhaps similar to
Taptapsee.

What is in it for the volunteers? how are they recruited, and where from.
I thought some of the other previous apps had sighted volunteers out back to
answer, or type the answer to questions.

Finally had a reason to use Be My Eyes. I wasn’t sure what temperature the
thermostat was on, so thought I’d try to use the app. Got someone in about a
minute or so, and had my question answered quickly. It was pretty awesome.
Seems to be getting more popular, because there are now 112,000 sighted
users and almost 10,000 blind. I just wanted to talk about my first
experience with it.

I'm not wearing a diaper, so don't try to change me.
