Upwage is an AI startup that helps jobseekers find (and thrive in) roles they love. The problem is simple: companies screen on arbitrary criteria that don’t actually predict fit. Upwage helps by providing interviewing agents that lead candidates through thoughtful, nuanced conversations meticulously designed to measure mutual fit. Their philosophy holds that AI shouldn’t replace human-to-human conversations, but it can help candidates think through career decisions and share the right information during early-stage interviews.
We began working with Upwage in November 2023 and later took on product ownership through the engagement. For much of the partnership, Foundation was the company’s design partner, helping drive growth from $120K to over $2.3M ARR.
