I’m excited to announce micro1 has raised a $35M Series A, valuing us at $500M. This round was led by 01A with @adambain joining our board of directors. We’re grateful to be partnering with leading AI Labs & fortune 10s, such as Microsoft, to train frontier LLMs. We’re just getting started building the infrastructure layer for AGI, with the ultimate goal of answering the very fundamental question: “where should humanity spend its time?”
At micro1, we believe the future of AI will be built on human brilliance. Our mission is to connect thousands of world-class experts, from PhD level academic researchers to industry leaders, and transform their knowledge into high-quality human data that fuels model post-training. Excited to be collaborating with @Microsoft to advance this mission by embedding expert insights directly into AI training loops and strengthening the quality, safety, and performance of frontier models.

.@DanWestgarth, @shuoshuooshuooo, @Bouazizalex, and the rest of the deel team are unreal. Best product & experience. HUGE congrats.
Deel has raised $300M at a $17.3B valuation We started about 6 years ago, struggling to even make $10K. I've never shared this before because of how embarrassing our start was. The story of how we went from $1K to $1B and the advice I'd give to my younger self:

Excited to announce micro1’s new 'on-the-fly' exercise generation 2.0 model. Simply describe how you’d like to assess candidates, and our model will instantly generate an entire frontend that simulates real-world, on-the-job scenarios — whether that’s debugging code, labeling data, crafting rubrics, or assessing sales performance in live customer scenarios. This helps predict how candidates will perform in complex, real-world environments, enabling teams to measure true expertise and contribution potential rather than just conversational interview performance.

FINALLY, something I can be hired as an expert in. @micro1_ai is paying up to $50/hour to do tasks you already do at home: folding laundry, loading dishes, making coffee. Waiting for them to add “replacing batteries in smoke alarm at 2am” - I’d crush it. businessinsider.com/ai-start…

was a pleasure for @M12vc to host & hear from the team at @micro1_ai @cartesia_ai @amazon @Microsoft @radicalvcfund on the importance of human data x intelligence. a key takeaway is that human intelligence is imbued in each step of the data curation process, including designing strong RL environments, given that agents must mirror human behavior

"Fears that AI will overshadow human ingenuity overlook an important fact: the best systems are increasingly shaped by human creativity." Very well said, Ray. Human brilliance is needed now more than ever. ❤️
