Mercor is an American company founded in 2023 by three Thiel Fellows that recruits and pays domain experts to produce the training and evaluation data frontier artificial intelligence labs need. Its business shifted quickly from general talent matching to expert data work: as models became competent at ordinary tasks, the scarce input became judgement from practising doctors, lawyers, bankers and engineers, and Mercor sources, vets and pays those people at very large scale. Headquartered in San Francisco and valued in the billions within two years of founding, it pays out enormous sums annually to a contributor network rather than employing them.

About Mercor

Mercor's mission is to organize human intelligence to power the AI economy. We're a leading AI data company, building the layer between human expertise and frontier models. Millions of domain experts on the platform are paid over $4 million per day to train frontier AI models. Mercor's APEX benchmark family measures AI's real-world impact on professional work. Mercor Enterprise brings this same infrastructure to Fortune 500 companies: helping companies capture how their best people actually work, translating that expertise directly back into agents.

Mercor is creating a new category of work where expertise powers AI advancement. Achieving this requires an ambitious, fast-paced and deeply committed team. You’ll work alongside researchers, operators, and AI companies at the forefront of shaping the systems that are redefining society. Mercor is a profitable Series C company valued at $10 billion. We work in-person five days a week in our San Francisco, NYC, or London offices.
