About Mercor
MERCOR is Hiring: SOFTWARE ENGINEER | APPLY SOON BEFORE APPLICATION CLOSES | HURRY UP!! Mercor is training models that predict how well someone will perform on a job better than a human can. Similar to how a human would review a resume, conduct an interview, and decide who to hire, we automate all of those processes with LLMs. Our technology is so effective it’s used by all of the top 5 AI labs.
We crossed a $100M revenue run rate and have averaged 59% month over month growth for the last 6 months, making us the fastest growing company in the world. The team is small and we remain extremely profitable because we can’t hire great people as fast as revenue is growing.
Last September, the startup was growing 50% month-over-month, with an annual revenue run rate (calculated by multiplying its latest monthly revenue by 12) in the “tens of millions.” Maintaining that pace, it now stands at a $75 million ARR, most of which comes from AI labs. Mercor says it now works with the world’s top five AI labs, including OpenAI.
Mercor’s $2 billion valuation gives it a 27x ARR multiple, a reasonable figure compared to the more inflated valuations seen today. Some investors are willing to pay up to 50 times ARR for the fastest-growing generative AI companies.
Aside from concerns about hiring bias, another debate surrounding Mercor’s technology is its potential to accelerate job displacement as AI advances.
Foody, however, argues that rather than displacing workers, Mercor is automating large parts of the economy, making workers even more valuable in the areas where they are still needed.
According to the chief executive, Mercor helps identify jobs humans should be doing in an AI-driven economy or jobs AI can’t perform — such as training AI models, managing complex decisions, or filling creative and strategic roles.
“If AI automates 90% of the economy, then humans become the bottleneck for the remaining 10%. So there’s 10x leverage on every unit of economic output that humans contribute because the rest has been automated,” Foody explains. “That means the way people work is changing as we move toward a more fractional, gig-like work model.”
