Or taskrabbit.

Think of human.io as more of the platform you might build one of these on. We're not reselling a labor pool, we're making it possible to stay engaged with one, especially for folks that have large audiences that aren't particularly engaged (newspapers, etc.)

Or exec. There's a lot of people in this space.

Yes. I'm actually an investor in Exec.

We're aiming at a different use-case though. Lots of people doing short one-off tasks around opinion and circumstance rather than paid specific tasks with a known, trained workforce.
