The Supahands Story

Innovating the way people work with the most scalable hybrid human-machine system

We’re obsessed with giving AI companies the best experience and quality. Preparing training data is a crucial part of a Data Scientist and Machine Learning Engineer’s life. We act as your extended brain, doing the work on your behalf, exactly how you want it to be done.

Supahands focuses on preparing clean and accurate datasets at scale with our fully managed, fully handpicked SupaAgents. We want to innovate the way people work and provide high quality services to the world’s most gamechanging companies.

Early days

Supahands launched in 2014 to take on non-core work for clients while they focus on strategic work that drove value for their businesses. We did this with a handful of fully managed individuals called SupaAgents. As the team and our operations scaled, we successfully raised a seed round with Axiata and 500 Startups.

Refocusing the business

2017 saw us refining our service offerings to tackle large-scale data-related projects for some of the most innovative companies from around the world like Uber and Rakuten.

We were carving a niche as the sole provider of such services in Southeast Asia and we also started exploring AI enablement work in the form of preparing training data.

Growing from 120 to 2,000 SupaAgents

A pre-A funding round with Axiata and Cradle Seed Ventures allowed us to grow our tech stack even further and we launched our first in-house product - Supahands Workplace.

Our SupaAgent community also grew from 120 to 2,000 talented individuals from around Southeast Asia by the end of 2017.

Specialists in Retail AI and Agritech

As Supahands' presence grew in the AI industry, so did our expertise. Our extensive experience working with clients in retail, e-commerce and agritech allows us to create incredibly efficient workflows for clients.

This consisted of constant upskilling of the growing SupaAgent workforce and perfecting our tools to provide clients with quality at scale.

A SupaFuture

Under the leadership of our co-founders, Mark (CEO) and Susian (COO), we raised a Series A round, led by Patamar Capital in 2019.

Together with an advisory board that's highly experienced in the field of AI and Computer Vision, Supahands has grown from a small Tech startup in Malaysia, to a globally recognized brand in AI enablement that promises speed, scale and accuracy to all our clients.
