About Mercor
Mercor is training models that predict how well someone will perform on a job better than a human can. We use our platform to source, vet, and onboard expert contractors who help train AI models in a wide variety of domains. Our technology is so effective it's used by all of the top 5 AI labs.
We scaled from $1-500M in revenue run rate in the last 17 months, making us the fastest growing company in the world. Our growth is accelerating. We averaged 11% week over week growth in July, 18% WoW growth in August, and 19% WoW growth in September. The team is small and we remain profitable because we can't hire great people as quickly as revenue is growing.
