Humanoid was a technology company specializing in advanced machine learning for distributed workforces.
The firm was acquired by CloudFactory in October 2012, in a strategic move that also included the purchase of SpeakerText. This dual acquisition was a key component of the launch of CloudFactory's 2.0 Platform. Humanoid had attracted investment from prominent venture firms, including Google Ventures and Dave McClure's 500 Startups, indicating its significant technological capabilities prior to the acquisition.
The company's core business centered on providing sophisticated machine learning technology. Following the acquisition, this technology was integrated into CloudFactory's platform to enhance its service offerings. The integration aimed to improve the accuracy, speed, and workflow capabilities for automating business processes. The business model focused on enterprise clients who needed to automate large-scale data entry, collection, and processing tasks, which were broken down into microtasks and handled by CloudFactory's managed, on-demand global workforce.
