Neon operates a mobile application that enables users to sell their anonymized phone call data to artificial-intelligence companies for model training. The app records calls between Neon users, strips all personally identifying information, and sells the resulting conversation data to vetted AI data partners. In return, users receive payouts ranging from 15 cents to $1 per minute of recorded conversation.
The company's technical work spans data anonymization, speech data processing, mobile application development, and the construction of an AI data marketplace. Its core industry verticals are consumer data monetization, AI training data, and mobile applications.
Neon positions itself as a consumer-first platform, emphasising user control over personal data and a fair compensation model. The company has relaunched its payout system and offers additional incentives such as referral bonuses and prize opportunities, including up to $100,000 for a "Caller of the Year" award.
