Unlocking Human Potential in the AI Economy

Knowledge is passed from one person to another. Students learn from teachers. Employees learn from managers. Apprentices learn from masters. Progress is made through people.

Since we founded Mercor almost three years ago, AI has advanced at an astonishing pace. But it still struggles with the subtleties that drive economically valuable work—balancing trade-offs, understanding intent, developing taste, and deciding what should be done, not just what can be done.

That's where our work begins.

Unlocking Human Potential

Mercor sits at the intersection of labor markets and AI research. We connect human expertise with leading AI labs and enterprises that drive the AI economy.

At Mercor, our vast talent network trains frontier AI models in the same way teachers train students: by sharing knowledge, experience, and context that can't be captured in code alone. Each project expands what models understand.

Each advance in AI, in turn, unlocks human potential.

We see this through the progress our experts make every day:

• A doctor shaping how AI recognizes early warning signs that could be missed by the human eye.
• A banker training an agent to do financial analysis far more efficiently than redundantly analyzing data rooms.
• A lawyer refining how models reason through precedent to improve legal judgment.

Defining a New Category of Work

AI is creating opportunity and accelerating human capability.

Millions of people will spend the next decade teaching machines the judgment, nuance, and taste that only humans possess. Instead of doing predictable work repeatedly, they'll teach agents how to do it once, so the agent can do it a million times.

Enterprise value chains are already shifting this way. Professionals can now codify workflows as evaluations that models can learn and improve from.

In turn, our experts are moving up the value chain. They're unlocking their potential by offloading rote tasks to agents and focusing on more economically valuable work that AI can't reliably do.

Investing In Our Future

Today, we're announcing our $350 million Series C funding, led by Felicis with participation from Benchmark, General Catalyst, and Robinhood Ventures. This round values Mercor at $10 billion, 5x our Series B valuation.

The investment accelerates our mission across three focus areas:

• Vast talent network
• Better matching
• Faster delivery

We are uniquely positioned to create this new category of work and shape how human and artificial intelligence create more economic value.
