Proof of Work as a Service
A model in which verification of the completion of physical tasks is offered as a paid service, providing completion evidence that is difficult to forge through timestamped photographs, geolocation, and human visual judgment, thereby addressing trust problems in the gig economy.

In the storm drain scenario, 'Proof of Work as a Service' means that after the clearer finishes unclogging, a second person independently verifies with timestamped photos that the grate indeed drains, thereby providing the commissioning party (municipality, property manager or AI agent) with proof of completion.
The 'Proof of Work as a Service' model can be extended to any offline task requiring after-the-fact confirmation, such as cleaning, repairs and delivery, becoming the trust infrastructure when agents hire humans.
