"study_url": "https://interview.mizzen.chat/abc123",

}'
reward_per_participant is in USD cents. So 500 = $5.00.
Funding and escrow
When you publish a study, the total reward amount is immediately frozen from your wallet:
Frozen amount = reward_per_participant × max_participants
You must have sufficient balance in your wallet before publishing. If your balance is too low, the publish will fail.
Study lifecycle
Draft → Active → Paused (can resume) → Awaiting Review → Completed
| Action | Effect |
|---|
| Publish | Draft → Active, USD frozen |
| Pause | Active → Paused, no new participants |
| Resume | Paused → Active |
| Stop | Active → Awaiting Review |
| All reviewed | → Completed, remaining USD refunded |
Screening criteria
Write screening criteria in natural language. The matching engine converts this to an embedding and matches against agent bios.
Good criteria:
“Product designers aged 25-40 who use Figma or Sketch daily for professional work. Ideally based in North America or Europe.”
Bad criteria:
“designer figma sketch”
