A US tax document issued by payment platforms to payees who exceed IRS reporting thresholds for payments received through the platform.

Form 1099-K is issued by payment processors like Stripe to US persons who receive above the IRS reporting threshold (currently $600 per year under new IRS rules, though thresholds may vary). For quiXzoom Zoomers who are US persons, a 1099-K may be issued by Stripe for their annual earnings. Non-US Zoomers (who have completed a W-8BEN) are not subject to 1099-K reporting. Zoomers should retain their quiXzoom earnings summaries for local tax reporting regardless of 1099-K status.

The middle Zoomer tier — 8–12 missions per week with 85%+ approval rate — balancing flexibility with consistent engagement.

Active tier represents Zoomers who use quiXzoom as a regular supplemental income source. To qualify, a Zoomer must sustain 8+ completed missions per week and maintain an approval rate above 85% over the qualifying window. Active Zoomers access a broader mission pool than Supplementary tier, including most premium mission types and higher-paying specialisation missions. Active tier is the threshold for most specialisation programme eligibility.

Automated quality and specification check run on every submission before payment is triggered.

AI review is the first gate a submitted set of photos passes through. The system checks geo-accuracy (is the submission within the mission geofence?), image quality (sharpness, exposure, occlusion), specification compliance (correct angles, required elements present), and EXIF integrity (timestamp within time window, GPS data present and consistent). The result is either an approval — triggering payout — or a rejection with a reason code that the Zoomer can act on.

Anti-Money Laundering — the regulatory framework that requires payment platforms to verify the identity of anyone receiving funds.

AML regulation obliges financial institutions and payment platforms to implement controls that prevent the platform from being used to launder illegally obtained money. In practice, this means platforms like Stripe — which powers quiXzoom's payouts — must verify Zoomer identity (KYC) before processing disbursements. AML requirements vary by jurisdiction but are broadly harmonised across the EU under the Anti-Money Laundering Directives (AMLD).

Adaptive Autonomous Multi-Agent Operating System — the AI capability platform that powers Landvex intelligence products.

AMOS is not an AI system. It is an AI Capability Platform — a suite of specialised engines that process observations into structured intelligence. AMOS ingests raw field data from quiXzoom, applies computer vision, pattern recognition, and cross-referencing, and produces outputs: indices, scores, change flags, and predictive signals. AMOS is the analytical layer between reality and decisions. It is developed and sold by Landvex Inc, Houston, TX.

Detects changes between observations over time.

The AMOS Change Engine compares current observations against historical baselines to identify additions, removals, and modifications. It powers change detection at scale, enabling proactive maintenance and early problem identification. The engine operates across multiple time scales from hours to years.

Regulatory control, documentation verification, and compliance checking engine.

AMOS Compliance verifies that assets, processes, and documentation meet regulatory requirements. It checks for required signage, accessibility features, fire safety equipment, and other compliance markers. The engine maintains up-to-date regulatory rule sets for multiple jurisdictions.

Creates traceable evidence chains for audit, insurance, and legal proceedings.

The AMOS Evidence Engine maintains an immutable, auditable chain of custody for every observation. It records capture metadata, processing history, analysis results, and access logs in a tamper-evident format suitable for legal admissibility. Evidence packages include cryptographic hashes and timestamps.

Skimming detection, manipulated ATM/utility meter detection, and insurance fraud prevention engine.

AMOS Fraud detects fraudulent manipulation of physical devices and systems. It identifies skimming devices on ATMs, tampered utility meters, falsified insurance claims, and other physical fraud vectors. The engine combines visual analysis with pattern matching against known fraud signatures.

Identity verification, document control, liveness detection, and fraud prevention engine.

AMOS Identity verifies that a person is who they claim to be. It processes government-issued IDs, performs liveness checks, and detects document tampering or synthetic identity fraud. The engine is used for KYC processes, access control, and high-trust verification scenarios.

Road, bridge, pole, sign, and property condition monitoring engine.

AMOS Infrastructure monitors the built environment: roads, bridges, utility poles, traffic signs, buildings, and other fixed assets. It detects deterioration, damage, and changes over time, producing condition indices and maintenance prioritisation scores. The engine is the core capability behind Landvex's infrastructure intelligence products.

General quality control and industrial inspection engine.

AMOS Inspection provides general-purpose quality control and inspection capabilities for industrial applications. It detects manufacturing defects, assembly errors, and quality deviations from specification. The engine is configurable for specific industry standards and can be trained on custom defect libraries.

Estimates likely future development based on current observations and historical patterns.

The AMOS Prediction Engine uses historical data, environmental factors, and deterioration models to forecast future asset conditions. It estimates remaining useful life, predicts failure probabilities, and identifies optimal intervention timing. Predictions include confidence intervals and are updated as new observations arrive.

Verifies that an image shows actual reality, not manipulated or synthetic content.

The AMOS Reality Engine detects image manipulation, deepfakes, and synthetic content. It analyses EXIF data, pixel-level artifacts, and lighting consistency to verify that an observation depicts real physical reality. This is critical for legal admissibility and insurance validity.

Converts observations into risk scores and prioritisation rankings.

The AMOS Risk Engine transforms raw observations into actionable risk assessments. It combines condition data, environmental factors, historical failure rates, and consequence analysis to produce risk scores that prioritise maintenance and intervention. Risk scores are normalised and comparable across asset types and geographies.

PPE detection, workplace hazard identification, and risk assessment engine.

AMOS Safety analyses visual data to detect personal protective equipment (PPE) compliance, identify workplace hazards, and assess safety risks. It can detect missing hard hats, unsafe scaffolding, blocked emergency exits, and other safety violations from standard photographs.

Object recognition, anomaly detection, and damage assessment engine.

AMOS Vision is the computer vision engine that identifies objects, detects anomalies, and assesses damage in visual data. It powers infrastructure inspection, property condition monitoring, and safety compliance checking. The engine can detect cracks, corrosion, vegetation encroachment, and other physical defects from standard photographs.

The processing tier where raw observations are transformed into structured intelligence by AMOS.

The Analysis Layer sits between the Observation Layer and the Decision Layer. Here, AMOS ingests verified field observations and applies analytical models: object detection, condition scoring, change analysis, pattern recognition, and anomaly detection. The outputs are normalised indices, confidence scores, and contradiction flags. The Analysis Layer is where data becomes insight — where thousands of individual observations are synthesised into coherent, actionable intelligence.

Application Programming Interface — the programmatic interface through which orderers access mission data, submission results, and platform services.

The quiXzoom API is a REST-style HTTP API that allows orderers to submit mission briefs, monitor mission status, retrieve completed submission packages (images, metadata, GeoJSON), and receive real-time updates via webhooks. Responses are in JSON format. The API uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication and HMAC-SHA256 for webhook signature verification.

A positive outcome from AI review, confirming a submission meets all mission requirements and triggering Zoomer payout.

When AI review determines that a submission satisfies all specification, quality, and location requirements for a mission, the submission is marked as Approved. This event is the trigger for payout to the Zoomer and for delivery of the submission package to the orderer. Approval also counts positively toward the Zoomer's approval rate and rating.

The percentage of submitted missions that pass AI review, calculated over a rolling 30-day window.

Approval rate is the primary quality signal on the quiXzoom platform. It is calculated as approved submissions divided by total submissions over the preceding 30 days. A Zoomer's approval rate directly determines their tier eligibility and access to premium and surge missions. Professional tier requires maintaining above 92% approval; Active tier requires above 85%. Zoomers below 70% receive coaching and may be temporarily restricted from claiming new missions.

The automated identification of differences between current observations and historical baseline data — surfacing what has changed in the physical world.

Change detection is a core AMOS capability that compares new observations against prior data to identify additions, removals, or modifications to physical assets. It powers infrastructure monitoring, property condition tracking, and environmental surveillance. Change detection operates at multiple scales: from pixel-level differences in repeated photographs to structural changes identified through computer vision. Each detected change is scored by confidence and severity, and flagged as a Contradiction when it represents an unexpected deviation.

The act of reserving a mission — locking it exclusively for you within a defined time window.

When a Zoomer claims a mission, the mission is removed from the available pool and assigned exclusively to that Zoomer for the duration of the time window. No other Zoomer can claim the same mission while it is held. If the Zoomer does not submit within the time window, the mission is automatically released back to the pool. Frequent abandonment (claiming without submitting) negatively affects a Zoomer's rating and may trigger restrictions.

A statistical measure of certainty attached to an observation or analysis output, expressed as a percentage.

The Confidence Score quantifies how certain the system is about a specific observation or derived insight. It is computed from multiple signals: EXIF integrity, GPS accuracy, image clarity, cross-validation against historical data, and agreement with other observations of the same asset. A high confidence score (90%+) indicates strong reliability; a low score triggers manual review or additional observation requests. Confidence scores are essential for decision-making — they tell the customer not just what was observed, but how much to trust it.

A mismatch between observed reality and expected or previously recorded reality — a signal that something has changed or requires attention.

A Contradiction is flagged when an observation deviates significantly from the expected state: a building that was intact now shows damage, a road that was clear now has a sinkhole, or an asset that was present is now missing. Contradictions are not errors — they are valuable signals. They trigger alerts, escalate priority, and often indicate the most urgent decisions a customer must make. The Contradiction engine cross-references observations against historical data, design specifications, and regulatory baselines.

Descriptive intelligence that tells you the current state of your physical assets — what is, not what to do.

Control Intelligence answers the question: 'What is the current condition of my assets?' It is the foundational layer of insight derived from observations, describing reality as it exists today: which bridges are sound, which buildings have damage, which roads need repair. Control Intelligence is objective, measurable, and verifiable. It is the raw material from which Decision Intelligence is forged — you cannot decide what to do until you know what is.

Comma-Separated Values — a plain-text tabular data format available as a bulk export option for orderers.

CSV exports from quiXzoom contain one row per submission, with columns for mission ID, submission timestamp, GPS coordinates, approval status, Zoomer tier (anonymised), and other metadata fields. CSV is suitable for bulk import into spreadsheet tools, BI platforms, or legacy claims systems that do not support JSON or API integration. CSV exports are available on demand via the orderer dashboard or API.

The entity that determines the purposes and means of processing personal data — under GDPR, quiXzoom acts as data controller for Zoomer and orderer data.

Under GDPR, the data controller is the legal entity responsible for deciding why and how personal data is processed. quiXzoom is the data controller for data collected from Zoomers (name, contact details, bank details, submission metadata) and from orderers. As data controller, quiXzoom must maintain a Record of Processing Activities (RoPA), appoint a Data Protection Officer where required, and respond to data subject rights requests within statutory timeframes.

An entity that processes personal data on behalf of the data controller, under a Data Processing Agreement (DPA).

Data processors act on the instructions of the data controller and cannot use the data for their own purposes. quiXzoom's data processors include Stripe (payment processing), the KYC provider (identity verification), and cloud infrastructure providers. Each processor relationship must be governed by a Data Processing Agreement that complies with GDPR Article 28, specifying the scope, nature, purpose, and duration of processing.

The geographic location where data is stored — quiXzoom stores all data in the EU (Stockholm, eu-north-1).

Data residency is increasingly important for enterprise customers in regulated industries, who may have legal or policy obligations requiring that data stays within a specific jurisdiction. quiXzoom's infrastructure runs on AWS eu-north-1 (Stockholm), keeping all data within the European Economic Area. This satisfies GDPR third-country transfer restrictions and is a key requirement for public sector and financial services customers.

Actionable recommendations derived from observations through AMOS — the end product of the Landvex ecosystem.

Decision Intelligence is not data. It is not reports. It is the answer to a specific question: Which asset should I repair first? Where should I open my next store? Which claims are fraudulent? Landvex delivers Decision Intelligence by combining quiXzoom observations, AMOS analysis, and domain expertise into structured recommendations that directly enable decisions. Every output includes a confidence score and traceable source data.

The top tier of the ecosystem where structured intelligence is translated into actionable decisions for customers.

The Decision Layer is where Landvex delivers intelligence products to end customers. It takes the indices, scores, and contradictions from the Analysis Layer and contextualises them for specific use cases: prioritising maintenance budgets, assessing insurance risk, evaluating property investments, ensuring regulatory compliance. The Decision Layer is customer-facing — it speaks the language of business, not technology. Every output is designed to answer one question: 'What decision does this help me make?'

The technical transfer of earned funds from the platform escrow to a Zoomer's linked bank account.

Disbursement is the formal payment term for the outbound transfer of earned mission compensation. In quiXzoom's architecture, approved submission earnings accumulate in a Stripe Connect account (held on behalf of the Zoomer), and disbursements are processed on a rolling basis to the Zoomer's linked IBAN. Disbursements are distinct from the mission approval event — there may be a short settlement window between approval and disbursement depending on Stripe's payout schedule.

Euro — the secondary currency used in quiXzoom platform and Landvex products, primarily for European markets.

EUR is the secondary currency in the quiXzoom and Landvex ecosystem, used primarily for European markets and SEPA-zone transactions. Zoomers in Eurozone countries receive payouts in EUR via SEPA. Orderers in Europe may be invoiced in EUR. Like USD, EUR is a customer-facing currency — SEK is never shown to customers.

Exchangeable Image File Format — metadata embedded in image files, including GPS coordinates, capture timestamp, device model, and camera settings.

EXIF metadata is written into image files at capture time by the device camera. For quiXzoom, EXIF is the primary evidence layer: it carries the GPS coordinates where the photo was taken, the precise timestamp, and device identifiers. AI review cross-validates EXIF GPS coordinates against the mission geofence, and EXIF timestamps against the mission time window. EXIF data is preserved in delivery packages to orderers as part of the chain-of-custody record.

A structured data collection event performed at a physical location by a verified contributor, producing an observation record.

A field observation is the complete act of capturing reality data on location: travelling to the mission site, following the observation protocol, capturing required imagery from specified vantage points, and submitting the observation package. It is more than the photos — it is the verified, time-stamped, geo-located record of what was observed. Field observations are the foundational input to the entire quiXzoom–AMOS–Landvex pipeline. Without field observations, there is no data, no intelligence, and no decisions.

General Data Protection Regulation — the EU framework governing how personal data is collected, stored, and processed.

GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) applies to any organisation processing the personal data of EU residents. For quiXzoom, this covers Zoomer identity data, GPS submission metadata, and orderer contact details. Key obligations include lawful basis for processing, data minimisation, purpose limitation, storage limitation, and honouring data subject rights (access, erasure, portability). All quiXzoom data is stored in EU (Stockholm, eu-north-1) to avoid third-country transfer complications.

The closeness of a recorded GPS coordinate to the actual physical position — typically expressed in metres of error radius.

Geo-accuracy is determined by GPS signal quality, which is affected by urban canyon effects, tree canopy, atmospheric conditions, and device hardware. Consumer smartphone GPS typically achieves 3–10 metre accuracy in open conditions. quiXzoom's mission geofences are sized to account for realistic geo-accuracy limits — a mission for a specific building typically uses a 30–50 metre compliance radius. AI review evaluates whether the recorded GPS position is within the mission's accepted tolerance.

An image embedded with GPS coordinates at capture time, proving where the photo was physically taken.

Geo-tagging writes latitude, longitude, and altitude data into the image's EXIF metadata at the moment of capture. All quiXzoom submissions must be geo-tagged — this is a technical requirement enforced by the app. Submissions from devices with disabled location services are rejected before upload. Geo-tagging is the foundation of quiXzoom's location verification: without it, there is no way to confirm the photo was taken at the correct mission location.

A virtual geographic boundary defining where a mission must be completed — submissions outside the geofence are automatically rejected.

A geofence is a digitally defined perimeter around a mission location, typically represented as a circle with a radius of 30–100 metres or as a GeoJSON Polygon for complex shapes. When a Zoomer submits photos, AI review checks the EXIF GPS coordinates against the mission geofence. If the submission was captured outside the geofence, it is rejected with a location mismatch reason. Geofences ensure data integrity by guaranteeing that observations were physically captured at the correct location, preventing fraudulent or mistaken submissions.

An open standard format (RFC 7946) for encoding geographic data structures using JSON.

GeoJSON is used by quiXzoom to define mission boundaries (geofences), to encode submission GPS paths, and to deliver location data to orderers in a format compatible with GIS platforms, mapping tools, and geographic analysis software. A mission boundary is represented as a GeoJSON Polygon; individual submission GPS points as GeoJSON Point Features with properties including timestamp, approval status, and submission ID.

Global Positioning System — the satellite-based navigation system used to determine precise geographic location of submissions.

GPS is the primary location technology in smartphones, providing latitude, longitude, and altitude data by triangulating signals from multiple satellites. All quiXzoom submissions depend on GPS for location verification. The system is augmented by network-based location (Wi-Fi and cell triangulation) in environments where satellite signals are weak — combined, these signals provide the geo-accuracy required for mission compliance checks.

A cryptographic signature method used to verify that webhook payloads were genuinely sent by quiXzoom and were not tampered with in transit.

HMAC (Hash-based Message Authentication Code) with SHA-256 works by combining the webhook payload with a shared secret key to produce a unique signature. quiXzoom attaches this signature to every webhook request in the X-QuiXzoom-Signature header. The receiving system recomputes the signature using the same secret and compares — if they match, the payload is authentic and unmodified. This is industry-standard practice used by Stripe, GitHub, and other major webhook providers.

International Bank Account Number — the standardised account identifier required for Stripe Connect payout setup in Europe.

IBAN is the international standard for identifying bank accounts across national borders, defined by ISO 13616. It consists of up to 34 alphanumeric characters: a 2-letter country code, 2 check digits, and the bank-specific account number. IBANs are used throughout SEPA for credit transfers and direct debits. Zoomers in supported SEPA countries link their IBAN during Stripe Connect onboarding — this is the account that will receive payout disbursements.

A one-time process confirming a Zoomer's identity with a government-issued ID and liveness check, required before the first payout.

Identity verification is a legal requirement under AML regulation for any payment platform processing disbursements. For quiXzoom, it involves submitting a government-issued photo ID (passport, national ID card, or driving licence) and a liveness check (selfie). The process is handled by a regulated KYC provider — not by quiXzoom directly — and typically completes within 1 hour. Identity verification is a one-time requirement: once verified, Zoomers never repeat it unless their details change materially.

A normalised score (0–100) derived from thousands of observations, representing the condition, risk, or quality of an asset or area.

An Index is the primary output of the AMOS analysis engine — a single number that summarises complex, multi-dimensional observation data into an intuitive, comparable metric. Different indices serve different purposes: the City Health Index measures overall infrastructure condition; the Infrastructure Risk Index quantifies probability of failure; the Commercial Opportunity Index identifies high-potential investment areas. Indices are computed from aggregated observations, weighted by confidence scores, and updated continuously as new observations flow in.

JavaScript Object Notation — the lightweight data format used for all quiXzoom API responses and webhook payloads.

JSON is a human-readable, language-agnostic data serialisation format that has become the de facto standard for web APIs. quiXzoom's REST API delivers all responses as JSON, including mission details, submission metadata, location data, and approval status. Webhook event payloads are also JSON. The format is natively supported in virtually all programming languages and integration platforms, making it straightforward to process quiXzoom data in any technical environment.

Know Your Customer — the regulatory process of verifying the identity of individuals before processing financial transactions on their behalf.

KYC is a standard compliance process required by AML regulation for payment platforms and financial services providers. In the quiXzoom context, KYC is performed by a regulated third-party identity verification provider (not by quiXzoom internally) on behalf of Stripe Connect. The process collects a government-issued ID and liveness check result, which are verified against government databases and fraud watchlists. KYC data is held by the verification provider, not by quiXzoom — quiXzoom only receives a pass/fail status.

Global intelligence infrastructure company — builds decision intelligence from field observations.

Landvex Inc (Houston, TX) develops and sells IT products powered by AMOS engines. Landvex does not sell AI — it sells intelligence based on AMOS. The company combines quiXzoom field data, AMOS analysis, and domain expertise into decision intelligence products for infrastructure owners, governments, insurers, and enterprises. Landvex has operational presence in Europe and North America.

The Swedish entity (org.nr 559141-7042) that handles development, operations, and accounting in SEK.

LandveX AB is the Swedish subsidiary responsible for development, operations, and local accounting. It handles all Swedish bookkeeping, VAT, payroll, and supplier invoices in SEK using the BAS chart of accounts and SIE4 format. This is correct per Swedish accounting law. LandveX AB operates the technical infrastructure from Stockholm (AWS eu-north-1).

The US entity (Houston, TX) that develops and sells IT products powered by AMOS engines.

Landvex Inc is the US-based company that owns and operates the AAMOS platform and quiXzoom product. It is the legal entity responsible for product development, sales, and operations. Landvex Inc is NOT 'AAMOS Group' — there is no such entity. All products are developed and sold by Landvex Inc.

A selfie-based verification step that confirms a real, live person is presenting the identity document — not a photo or deepfake.

Liveness detection uses computer vision to analyse a short selfie capture and confirm it is a genuine live face rather than a printed photo, screen replay, or synthetic image. It is performed as part of the KYC process to prevent identity fraud — specifically to stop bad actors using stolen ID documents paired with someone else's photo. Modern liveness checks typically involve a brief instructed motion (e.g. blinking or turning the head) to prove liveness unambiguously.

A paid photography assignment with a defined location, scope, and compensation, published by an orderer and claimed by a Zoomer.

A mission is the fundamental unit of work on the quiXzoom platform. Each mission has a geographic pin or geofence, a compensation amount, a mission brief (describing what to photograph and how), a time window within which the work must be completed, and a submission specification defining how many photos are required and from which vantage points. Missions may be standard, premium, or surge, and may be single-submission or multi-submission.

The complete specification for a mission — what to capture, how to capture it, quality requirements, and any special instructions.

A mission brief is shown to the Zoomer after they claim a mission, and is the primary guide for execution. It includes required shot angles, distance from subject, lighting conditions (if relevant), specific elements that must appear in frame, and any contextual notes from the orderer. Mission briefs for specialised mission types (bridge inspection, maritime, infrastructure) include more detailed technical requirements. Zoomers should read the brief carefully before travelling to the mission location.

The number of active missions available per geographic area — a key factor in a Zoomer's earning potential by location.

Mission density varies significantly between urban and rural areas, between regions, and over time. High mission density zones (dense urban areas, coastal regions with infrastructure) allow Zoomers to complete more missions per hour of activity — increasing hourly earnings. Mission density is influenced by orderer activity in the area and by platform growth. Zoomers can view mission density maps to understand the earning environment in different zones before setting their zone preferences.

A mission type where multiple Zoomers can submit, with compensation decreasing for each successive approved submission.

Multi-submission missions are used by orderers who want several independent documentation sets of the same location — typically for comparison, validation, or higher confidence. The first Zoomer to submit receives the highest compensation; subsequent approved submissions receive progressively lower amounts. The orderer sets the maximum number of submissions they will accept and the compensation schedule. Multi-submission missions remain claimable by additional Zoomers until the orderer's submission limit is reached.

Open Authorization — the industry-standard protocol used by quiXzoom's API for secure, delegated authentication.

OAuth 2.0 allows orderers to authenticate API requests without sharing credentials. Orderers obtain access tokens through the OAuth flow, which are then included in API request headers. Tokens can be scoped (read-only, write, full access) and have configurable expiry periods. OAuth 2.0 is also used for third-party integrations — for example, allowing an orderer's claims management platform to connect to quiXzoom on behalf of their organisation.

A verified field record captured through quiXzoom — the fundamental unit of reality data.

An observation is not a photo. It is a structured, verified record of physical reality at a specific place and time. Every observation includes: geolocation (GPS coordinates with accuracy estimate), timestamp (when it was captured), media (images or video), and metadata (device, conditions, mission context). Observations are quality-checked by AI before entering the dataset. They are the raw material from which all Landvex intelligence is derived.

The field data collection tier where Zoomers capture verified observations of physical assets and infrastructure.

The Observation Layer is the foundation of the ecosystem — the interface between physical reality and digital intelligence. It encompasses the quiXzoom mobile app, Zoomer network, mission management system, and AI review pipeline. Its purpose is to produce high-quality, trustworthy observations at scale. The Observation Layer guarantees data integrity through geo-tagging, timestamp verification, and automated quality checks. Without a robust Observation Layer, everything above it — analysis, indices, decisions — is built on sand.

The standardised set of instructions defining what to capture, from which angles, and under what conditions for a given mission type.

The observation protocol is the rulebook for field data collection. It specifies the number of photos required, the vantage points (distance, angle, height), the elements that must be in frame, lighting conditions, and any safety or access constraints. Protocols are mission-type specific: a bridge inspection protocol differs from a property documentation protocol. Following the protocol is essential for approval — AI review checks compliance against the protocol, and deviations result in rejection. Protocols are developed by domain experts and refined through feedback from AI review outcomes.

An organisation that creates and funds missions on the quiXzoom platform to obtain field documentation.

Orderers are the demand side of the quiXzoom marketplace. They can be insurance companies, infrastructure asset owners, public sector bodies, logistics operators, or any organisation with a need for verified on-location photography. Orderers define mission briefs, set compensation, and receive approved submissions via the dashboard or API. Orderers pay the Zoomer compensation plus a platform fee to quiXzoom.

The internal platform architecture that powers quiXzoom, AAMOS, and Landvex — a self-referential system where the platform monitors and improves itself.

Ouroboros is the internal name for the technical architecture that underpins the entire Landvex ecosystem. It encompasses the microservices, data pipelines, AI models, and infrastructure that enable quiXzoom field data collection, AMOS analysis, and Landvex intelligence delivery. The name reflects the system's self-monitoring nature: observations feed analysis, analysis drives decisions, decisions generate new observations. Ouroboros is not a customer-facing product — it is the technical foundation.

The transfer of earned mission compensation to a Zoomer's linked bank account, triggered automatically by submission approval.

Payouts are processed via Stripe Connect and deposited to the Zoomer's linked IBAN. Earnings from approved submissions accumulate in the Zoomer's Stripe Connect balance and are disbursed on a rolling schedule. Payout frequency and minimum threshold are configurable within the app. Payouts require completed identity verification (KYC) and a linked bank account. Zoomers receive an in-app notification and email confirmation for each payout.

Personally Identifiable Information — any data that can directly or indirectly identify a specific individual.

PII encompasses obvious identifiers (name, email, address, IBAN) as well as indirect identifiers that, in combination, could identify someone (GPS traces, device fingerprints, submission patterns). Under GDPR, quiXzoom treats PII with strict controls: it is collected only where necessary, retained only as long as required, and never shared with orderers in identifiable form. Zoomer submissions are delivered to orderers without attached Zoomer identity — orderers receive field data, not person data.

The service fee paid by orderers to quiXzoom on top of Zoomer compensation, covering platform operations and AI review.

The platform fee is charged to the orderer and covers quiXzoom's infrastructure, AI review system, Zoomer management, customer support, and margin. Zoomers receive their full stated mission compensation — the platform fee is paid by the orderer separately and does not come from Zoomer earnings. Platform fees are calculated as a percentage of mission compensation, with enterprise volume pricing available for high-volume orderers.

A high-threshold mission type requiring specific Zoomer qualifications and a high approval rate, offering significantly elevated compensation.

Premium missions are reserved for experienced, high-performing Zoomers. Qualification requires Professional tier (or Active tier with relevant specialisation) and an approval rate above 92%. These missions typically involve technical infrastructure documentation — bridges, power facilities, maritime assets — with precise specification requirements. Compensation for premium missions reflects both the technical difficulty and the high-value use cases they serve, typically ranging from €20 to €40+ per submission.

The highest Zoomer tier — 15+ missions per week, 92%+ approval rate — granting access to all mission types including premium and unrestricted surge.

Professional tier represents quiXzoom's most engaged and highest-quality Zoomers. Qualification requires sustaining 15+ completed missions per week over the qualifying window, maintaining an approval rate above 92%, and having completed identity verification. Professional tier Zoomers receive priority access to new mission types, higher compensation caps, dedicated support, and early access to specialisation programmes. They form the backbone of supply for high-value, time-critical orderer requests.

A composite rating of an observation's technical fitness — sharpness, exposure, framing, and protocol compliance — distinct from the confidence score.

The Quality Score evaluates the technical and aesthetic properties of submitted media independent of location or metadata verification. It measures image sharpness (absence of motion blur or focus issues), exposure (neither under- nor over-exposed), framing (subject completeness and composition), and protocol compliance (correct angles, required elements visible). Quality Score is a component of the overall Confidence Score but is computed separately to give orderers visibility into the technical standard of their data. Low quality scores trigger coaching for Zoomers and may result in rejection if minimum thresholds are not met.

Global field data collection platform — 'Uber fast för foton'.

quiXzoom is a standalone product and business with its own brand, separate from AAMOS. It is a marketplace where anyone can take photo missions and earn money. Orderers post missions; Zoomers (anyone) complete them and get paid. quiXzoom uses AAMOS infrastructure under the hood but is never presented as 'AAMOS'. The platform provides verified, geotagged, timestamped field observations on demand.

Standalone authentication product sold via AAMOS — includes Auth Foundation, KYZ Engine, Company Registry, and Payout Engine.

quiXzoom Auth Core is a standalone authentication and identity product that can be integrated into any application. It includes: Auth Foundation (email/Google + phone + password), KYZ Engine (Know Your Zoomer — identity verification), Company Registry (sole proprietorship / registered company), and Payout Engine (Stripe Connect, Frilans Finans, bank transfers). Auth Core is sold as a product via AAMOS and is used by quiXzoom and other Landvex products.

Payout product for freelancers without a company — handles taxes and fees across 8 markets.

quiXzoom Frilans Payout is a payout product designed for freelancers who don't have a registered company. It operates across 8 markets (SE, NO, DK, FI, DE, NL, US, GB) and automatically handles source tax per country. Features include weekly/monthly payouts, 15% platform fee + 6% processing fee, and automatic tax reporting. The product integrates with quiXzoom Auth Core and uses the Payout Engine.

quiXzoom internal token — 1 QZ = 1 USD, used for platform transactions and rewards.

The QZ Token is quiXzoom's internal transaction token with a fixed exchange rate of 1 QZ = 1 USD. It is not a speculative cryptocurrency — it is a simple ledger entry used for platform transactions, rewards, and internal accounting. QZ Tokens are created when missions are approved and stored in Zoomer accounts. They can be converted to USD payouts or used for platform services.

A Zoomer's accumulated quality score on the platform, reflecting submission quality, consistency, and reliability over time.

Rating is a composite metric calculated from approval rate, submission volume, claim-to-completion ratio (how often claimed missions are actually submitted), and any policy violations. Rating is displayed as a numerical score and determines mission access filtering — high-rating Zoomers see more mission types, receive surge notifications earlier, and are prioritised for specialisation programme invitations. Unlike approval rate (a rolling 30-day window), rating incorporates a Zoomer's full history, weighted toward recent activity.

The physical world itself — the assets, infrastructure, and environments that the ecosystem observes, analyses, and optimises.

The Reality Layer is everything physical: roads, bridges, buildings, coastlines, forests, power lines, water pipes. It is the domain that exists independently of any observation system — the ground truth that the ecosystem seeks to understand and improve. The Reality Layer is not digital; it is the actual world that customers own, manage, insure, and invest in. Every observation is a measurement of the Reality Layer; every index is a summary of its state; every decision is an intervention upon it.

A measurable, verifiable observation that describes a specific aspect of the physical world.

A Reality Signal is any observation that carries information about the state of physical reality: a photo of a cracked bridge deck, a GPS-tagged image of flood damage, a timestamped record of a building's facade. Reality Signals are the raw inputs to the Analysis Layer. They are distinguished from synthetic or inferred data by their direct connection to physical measurement — a Zoomer was there, the camera captured light from the actual scene, the GPS recorded the actual coordinates. Reality Signals are the antidote to assumptions and desk-based estimates.

A negative outcome from AI review, indicating a submission does not meet mission requirements — no payout is issued for rejected submissions.

Rejections occur when AI review identifies one or more disqualifying issues: location mismatch (GPS outside geofence), timestamp violation (submitted outside time window), image quality failure (blurred, overexposed, or heavily occluded), specification miss (required element absent), or EXIF anomaly (GPS data absent or inconsistent). Every rejection includes a specific reason code that the Zoomer can view in-app. Zoomers can review rejection reasons to understand and correct issues on future missions.

Landvex's coding pipeline for automated software development, testing, and deployment.

REXO is Landvex's internal coding pipeline that automates software development tasks. It runs via /opt/amos/rexo-build/, with tasks defined in plan/PLAN.json and executed by parallel workers. REXO orchestrates code generation, testing, and deployment across the ecosystem. All coding tasks should be routed through REXO rather than manual file uploads or direct server modifications.

A GDPR right allowing individuals to request deletion of their personal data from a platform's systems.

Under GDPR Article 17, individuals have the right to request erasure of their personal data when it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, when they withdraw consent, or when they object to processing. For quiXzoom, this means Zoomers can request deletion of their account and all associated personal data at any time via the app settings. Certain data may need to be retained for limited periods to satisfy legal obligations (e.g. financial records under tax law) even after an erasure request.

Amazon Simple Storage Service — the object storage platform used to store all quiXzoom submission images, securely and at scale.

S3 (AWS eu-north-1) is quiXzoom's primary file store for submission images. Uploaded images are stored with server-side encryption, access is controlled via IAM policies, and orderers receive time-limited signed URLs to retrieve submission packages — images are never publicly accessible by default. S3's durability (99.999999999%) and scalability make it appropriate for a platform expecting high submission volumes during surge events.

Single Euro Payments Area — the European bank transfer network used for EUR payout disbursements to Zoomers.

SEPA covers 36 European countries and enables fast, low-cost euro bank transfers using IBAN identifiers. SEPA Credit Transfers (SCT) typically settle within 1 business day; SEPA Instant Credit Transfers (SCT Inst) settle in under 10 seconds where supported. quiXzoom uses Stripe Connect's SEPA infrastructure for EUR disbursements to Zoomers in SEPA-member countries. For Zoomers in countries outside SEPA, SWIFT transfers apply, which may have longer settlement windows and additional fees.

Service Level Agreement — the delivery timeline and quality commitments quiXzoom makes to orderers, governing mission fulfilment and submission delivery.

quiXzoom's SLAs define expected fulfilment times (how quickly a claimed mission produces an approved submission), platform uptime commitments, API response time guarantees, and escalation procedures when commitments are not met. SLA terms vary by orderer plan — standard, professional, and enterprise tiers have different guaranteed fulfilment windows. SLA performance is monitored and reported monthly to orderers, with service credits applicable in cases of sustained underperformance.

A certified competency that unlocks access to specific advanced mission types requiring domain-specific knowledge or technical skill.

Specialisations are earned through a training and assessment programme administered within the quiXzoom app. Each specialisation covers the technical requirements, safety considerations, and documentation standards for a specific mission domain. Available specialisations include Maritime (marina and harbour documentation), Bridge & Civil (infrastructure inspection), Energy Infrastructure (substations, wind turbines), and Retail Audit. Completing a specialisation assessment unlocks the corresponding premium mission category in the Zoomer's feed.

A global payments platform — quiXzoom's underlying payment infrastructure provider for all Zoomer payouts and orderer billing.

Stripe is a regulated payment institution used by millions of platforms worldwide. quiXzoom uses two Stripe products: Stripe Payments for orderer billing, and Stripe Connect for Zoomer payout disbursements. Stripe holds regulatory authorisations across the US, EU, and other jurisdictions, which is why AML/KYC compliance requirements flow through Stripe Connect's onboarding process. Stripe's infrastructure provides the payment settlement, fraud detection, and payout mechanics that quiXzoom's marketplace depends on.

Stripe's multi-party payment product that enables quiXzoom to distribute earned mission compensation directly to individual Zoomer bank accounts.

Stripe Connect is designed specifically for marketplace and platform models where a platform collects money from one party (orderers) and distributes it to another (Zoomers). It handles the regulated aspects of marketplace payments: identity verification (KYC), payout scheduling, tax form collection (where required), currency conversion, and compliance with local financial regulations. Each Zoomer has a Stripe Connect account created during onboarding, linked to their verified bank account.

A completed set of photos uploaded by a Zoomer after executing a mission, submitted for AI review and potential payout.

A submission is the output of a claimed and completed mission. It consists of the required number of geo-tagged images, their EXIF metadata, a GPS trace (if required), and any optional notes from the Zoomer. Submissions are uploaded through the quiXzoom app and enter the AI review pipeline immediately. The submission event locks the mission as completed — a Zoomer cannot resubmit after an initial submission without contacting support. Submission quality directly impacts approval rate and rating.

The entry-level Zoomer tier — 2–4 missions per week — for contributors using quiXzoom as occasional supplemental income.

Supplementary tier is the starting tier for all new Zoomers. It provides access to standard missions in the Zoomer's zone, with no minimum weekly commitment. Supplementary Zoomers earn the standard mission rates and can access surge missions in their area. To progress to Active tier, a Zoomer must demonstrate sustained volume (8+ missions/week) and maintain an approval rate above 85% over a qualifying period.

High-urgency missions deployed after acute events — storms, floods, accidents — offering 2–5× standard compensation for rapid on-site documentation.

Surge missions are created by orderers (typically insurers or infrastructure managers) in response to time-critical events requiring rapid field documentation. They carry elevated compensation to incentivise Zoomers to prioritise them and accept shorter time windows. Surge alerts are pushed as priority notifications to all Zoomers in the affected zone, with Professional tier Zoomers notified first. Surge missions typically have tighter specification requirements and stricter AI review thresholds given their legal and claims significance.

Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication / Bank Identifier Code — used for international bank transfers outside the SEPA zone.

SWIFT (the network) and BIC (the identifier standard) together enable international bank-to-bank transfers for currencies and countries outside SEPA. Zoomers in non-SEPA countries (e.g. the UK post-Brexit for GBP, or non-EU markets quiXzoom may expand to) require a SWIFT/BIC code in addition to their account number for payout setup. SWIFT transfers typically settle in 1–5 business days and may incur intermediary bank fees — terms disclosed to Zoomers during onboarding.

A Zoomer's platform level — Supplementary, Active, or Professional — reflecting activity volume and quality, and determining mission access.

The tier system is quiXzoom's primary mechanism for matching mission complexity and compensation to Zoomer reliability. Higher tiers require more submissions per week and higher approval rates; in return, they unlock premium missions, higher compensation caps, priority surge notifications, and specialisation programmes. Tier is calculated on a rolling basis — a Zoomer can move up by improving performance, or drop if activity or quality falls below threshold for a sustained period.

The duration a Zoomer has to complete and submit a mission after claiming it — after which the mission auto-releases back to the pool.

Time windows are set per mission type and range from 1 hour (urgent surge missions in dense urban areas) to 24 hours (rural or low-urgency surveys). The clock starts when the Zoomer claims the mission. If no submission is received before the window expires, the mission is automatically un-claimed and becomes available to other Zoomers. Frequent time window expiries (claiming without submitting) negatively affect a Zoomer's rating and may trigger temporary claiming restrictions.

The precise date and time recorded in a photo's EXIF metadata, proving when the image was captured.

Timestamps are a critical element of quiXzoom's chain-of-custody system. The EXIF timestamp records the device's date and time at the moment of capture, and is cross-validated by AI review against the mission's claimed time window. For legal and insurance use cases, the timestamp (combined with GPS data) provides tamper-evident proof that the documentation was made at the right place at the right time. quiXzoom also records server-side ingestion timestamps for each submission to supplement device-side EXIF data.

United States Dollar — the primary currency used in quiXzoom platform and Landvex products.

USD is the main currency throughout the quiXzoom platform and Landvex ecosystem. All customer-facing pricing, payouts, and product fees are denominated in USD (or EUR where specified). This is a locked policy — SEK is never used in customer-facing copy, sites, documents, or communication. The only exception is LandveX AB's internal Swedish accounting.

Value Added Tax — Zoomers are responsible for their own VAT obligations where applicable under local tax law.

VAT treatment of gig platform income varies by jurisdiction and depends on the Zoomer's status (individual, self-employed, VAT-registered business) and the total income thresholds in their country. In most EU countries, Zoomers earning below the VAT registration threshold are not required to charge or remit VAT. quiXzoom provides transaction records suitable for tax reporting but does not provide tax advice — Zoomers should consult their local tax authority or advisor for their specific obligations. For orderers, quiXzoom's service fees are subject to standard B2B VAT rules.

A Zoomer who has completed identity verification (KYC) and maintains an active, good-standing account — eligible for payouts and premium missions.

A verified contributor is a Zoomer who has passed the platform's trust threshold: their identity has been confirmed through government-issued ID and liveness check, their bank account is linked via Stripe Connect, and their account is in good standing (not suspended or restricted). Verification is a one-time process, but good standing is maintained through consistent quality (approval rate above threshold) and compliance with platform policies. Only verified contributors can receive payouts and access Professional-tier missions. Verification status is displayed in the Zoomer's profile.

Visual Infrastructure Monitoring System — a Landvex product for continuous infrastructure condition assessment.

VIMS (Visual Infrastructure Monitoring System) is a Landvex product that uses quiXzoom observations and AMOS analysis to provide continuous monitoring of infrastructure assets. It delivers condition indices, change alerts, and maintenance prioritisation for roads, bridges, buildings, and utilities. VIMS replaces periodic manual inspections with ongoing, data-driven condition assessment.

US IRS tax forms collected by payment platforms from payees to determine tax withholding obligations for US-source income.

W-9 is completed by US persons (certifying their Tax Identification Number). W-8BEN is completed by non-US individuals certifying their foreign status and claiming any applicable tax treaty benefits. Stripe Connect collects these forms as part of its US regulatory compliance. For Zoomers in the EU, W-8BEN confirms they are not subject to US tax withholding on quiXzoom earnings. This is collected automatically during Stripe Connect onboarding for Zoomers in countries where Stripe requires it.

The pre-launch registration list for Zoomers and orderers to secure early access when quiXzoom opens in their region.

The quiXzoom waitlist allows interested Zoomers and orderers to register before the platform launches in their area. Waitlist registrants receive priority onboarding invitations, early-access mission allocations, and launch communications. For Zoomers, waitlist sign-up takes under 60 seconds and requires only basic contact information — full onboarding (identity verification, bank account) is completed when access is granted. The waitlist helps quiXzoom manage geographic launch sequencing and ensure supply matches demand at launch.

An automatic HTTP POST notification sent by quiXzoom to an orderer's system when a defined event occurs — typically submission approval.

Webhooks enable real-time integration between quiXzoom and orderer systems without polling. When a submission is approved (or rejected, or a mission is created), quiXzoom sends a JSON payload to the orderer's configured webhook URL. The payload includes the event type, mission ID, submission ID, GPS coordinates, approval status, and image download URLs. Orderers must verify webhook authenticity using HMAC-SHA256 signature verification. Undelivered webhooks are retried with exponential backoff over 24 hours.

The geographic radius a Zoomer sets as their operational area, determining which missions appear in their mission feed.

Each Zoomer configures one or more zones — defined as a radius around a point (their home, workplace, or preferred operating area). The quiXzoom app displays missions within the Zoomer's active zone. Zoomers can set multiple zones, adjust zone radius, and switch between zones as needed. Zone configuration is used by quiXzoom to target mission notifications — if a surge mission is activated within a Zoomer's zone, they are alerted immediately. Zones do not restrict where a Zoomer can physically travel; they filter the mission feed for relevance.

A verified field data collector on the quiXzoom platform — an individual who claims missions, captures on-location photography, and earns compensation per approved submission.

Zoomers are the supply side of the quiXzoom marketplace. Anyone with a compatible smartphone, a willingness to be verified (KYC), and a linked bank account can become a Zoomer. Zoomers work independently, on their own schedule, within their chosen zone. They earn per approved submission — there is no hourly pay, no minimum hours, and no obligation to work any particular number of missions. Zoomers progress through tiers (Supplementary → Active → Professional) as they build volume and quality.
