Submission form

Please send up problems using this form, and our mathematicians would evaluate how difficult they are relative to what we’re looking for, and we’ll compensate you $300-$1000 based on those assessments. We will contact you via the email you provide.

Note that we reserve the right to decline purchasing a question even if it fits the criteria, due to high submission volume or other processing constraints such as limitations in contracting in certain countries.

We will also ask you to sign a light NDA agreement before we purchase your question, to ensure the questions remain confidential.

Problem requirements

• The problems should be exceptionally challenging, with a strong emphasis on research-like questions. We’re particularly seeking problems that mirror those encountered in actual mathematical research, requiring deep specialized knowledge and potentially taking experts hours to solve. Please try to see if models like GPT-4 can solve the problem, because if it can, it is certainly not challenging enough.
• The questions should have a clear answer that can be automatically verified. Ideally this answer is an integer or a rational number, but we can accommodate more general type signatures of answers so long as the model can write a Python script that computes the answer and that can be checked for correctness using test cases. Consequently, e.g. questions of the type “Prove that…” should be avoided.
• Guessing the right answer to the question with a > 1% chance should be as difficult as solving the problem. As a result, true/false questions or questions where most of the difficulty is in proving that a conjectured answer is correct should be avoided.
