“@joinHandshake’s revenue from AI training has risen to nearly $1 billion up from $550 million in January and $5 million a year ago…”
Handshake and @GarrettLord’s team started as a successful early career job marketplace but will now probably be known as the best AI reset company story of all time.

www.theinformation.com Handshake, Mercor Revenue Surges on Demand for Human Contractors to Train AI AI firms’ voracious appetite for more data has lifted sales for obscure startups doing the industry’s unglamorous work: contracting with lawyers, PhDholders and medical doctors who grade the answers... Excited to join the boards of Autotrader and Oxford University Press. While in some ways the organizations couldn't be more different (a FTSE 100 marketplace, a 500 year old publishing powerhouse) they share three traits:
Both organizations have demonstrated decades / centuries of embracing new technologies with great success - AT was a fan-favorite car lookbook turned AI-powered marketplace. OUP was, well, the second printer on the planet but also an early champion of closing the digital divide with online resources & tech-driven adaptive learning. Neither are done evolving - both companies are leaning in to meet the AI moment.
Both organizations are clear leaders in their categories, not through innate incumbency but sustained focus & effort on being the very best business built around a critical service.
Related and finally, AT and OUP have excellent leadership teams who are hungry, humble, and relentlessly curious. There are no laurels being rested on. It's a privilege to be involved!
