Quests by Normal connects CAD engineers with paid modeling challenges that help build data for advanced mechanical engineering AI. Contributors choose open challenges, recreate parts from dimensioned engineering drawings in Onshape, and submit a complete recording of their modeling session for review. Each challenge displays its bounty and estimated time upfront, with examples ranging from $30 to $60. Submissions are checked against automated criteria, including target mass and bounding-box tolerances, and then reviewed by a person for accuracy against the drawing. Accepted work earns the stated bounty; rejected work is not paid, but reviewers explain what did not match, and contributors can try another challenge.

Normal says it uses the models and recorded sessions as training data for its CAD systems. Participation requires an Onshape account, drawing-reading skills, and agreement to session recording. New accounts may be reviewed before receiving access. Payments are made through Stripe, with payouts scheduled weekly; Quests says it covers Stripe fees and does not take a cut.
