We were thrilled to feature Joe and Jonathan from Upwork at March's Chat8VC in San Francisco. We covered their journey from teams like Google Brain and Cruise, and their own startup, to leading AI efforts at Upwork—building Uma, a suite of specialized LLMs powering workflows for freelancers and clients across the platform.
Human-quality workflows need human-quality data, an axiom that has only grown truer in the AI-first enterprise. However, access to complete, high-signal data remains a limiting factor, given steep data provider fees, inflexible schemas, AI hallucinations, and scattered, inconsistent, and mutating sources. Customers don’t need to be data scientists to recognize shovel-ready datasets, but if they need to be data scientists to generate them reliably, data will always be rate-limiting.
