Workhelix Secures $15M to Assist Organizations Turn AI Hype into Business Value
Workhelix, a tech-enabled services company, announced it has secured $15 million in Series A funding, enabling the company to create data-driven roadmaps for AI deployment with various organizations.
The funding round was led by AIX Ventures, with participation from Andrew Ng’s AI Fund, Accenture Ventures, BGV, Bloomberg Beta, Future of Work Partners, Telesoft, Zetta Ventures, Paul Daugherty, Jeff Dean, Reid Hoffman, Yann LeCun, Mira Murati, Sebastian Thrun, and Jeff Wilke.
Workhelix shows companies their top opportunities to create value with AI, then measure its impact. This approach has drawn customers that include Wayfair, Coursera, BAYADA, and more than a dozen publicly traded companies.
To create its roadmaps, Workhelix analyzes over 250,000 tasks for the typical client to determine exactly where AI can create value.
Using proprietary methodologies developed over a decade of research, the platform helps C-suite leaders prioritize AI investments based on real business needs, not hype, the company said.
Workhelix then deploys engineers with a combination of data science, AI, and econometrics skills to help customers establish cadences for measuring progress and understanding the ROI and performance impact of each AI effort.
“We’re in the first inning of a multidecade transformation of global enterprises from primarily human-powered to AI-powered,” said Shaun Johnson, founding partner of AIX Ventures, who is joining Workhelix’s board of directors. “The companies that most effectively adopt AI will outcompete their rivals for customers, top talent, and investors. Workhelix helps them do that.”
