Turing was founded in 2018 by CEO Jonathan Siddharth, a scientist and entrepreneur who had been building AI systems long before the ChatGPT era. A Stanford AI Lab alumnus who left a PhD track to start his first company, Jonathan saw early that AI could identify and unlock global talent at scale, giving startups access to world-class engineers in overlooked regions who were otherwise priced out of reach.

He built the world's largest AI-powered talent platform, with over four million engineers, data scientists, and PhDs. As frontier AI has advanced, so did Turing. In 2022, OpenAI tapped Turing to provide coding data for ChatGPT. Recognizing the frontier labs' urgent need for high-quality training data, Jonathan leaned into his AI research roots and Turing became the world's leading research accelerator for frontier AI. Today, Turing partners with the leading labs to train superintelligence and is the largest and longest-running provider of coding data in the category.

Based in San Francisco, California, Turing’s mission is to accelerate superintelligence to drive real economic progress. Turing supports customers in two ways: first, by accelerating frontier research with high-quality data, advanced training pipelines, plus top AI researchers who specialize in coding, reasoning, STEM, multilinguality, multimodality, and agents; and second, by applying that expertise to help enterprises transform AI from proof of concept into proprietary intelligence with systems that perform reliably, deliver measurable impact, and drive lasting results on the P&L.

Turing’s leadership team includes AI technologists from industry giants Meta, Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Twitter, McKinsey, Bain, Stanford, Caltech, and MIT.
