Handshake 一年做到 10 亿美元估值:给前沿实验室卖专业数据的生意

What Frontier Labs Buy: A Data Deep Dive with Handshake AI — Garrett Lord & Team

Why we picked it

Latent Space 第一次拆数据实验室,主角是 Handshake 的 Garrett Lord。他们一年从零做到 10 亿美元估值,靠的是给 OpenAI、Anthropic 这类实验室供金融、生物、对齐领域的专家数据。做数据服务或评测创业的人能从中学到定价和交付的真实玩法。

Handshake 在一年内估值达到 10 亿美元,是 Latent Space 首次深入报道数据实验室。Handshake 的核心业务是为 OpenAI、Anthropic 等前沿实验室提供专业领域的训练数据。节目以 Finance、Bio、Alignment 三个领域的具体案例,展示了数据生产如何匹配实验室的评测与对齐需求。

内容拆解了这家公司的工作方式:Handshake 依托其校园招聘业务积累的专家网络,招募金融分析师、生物学者等专业人士编写和校验训练数据,而不是用众包平台的无差别标注。Garrett Lord 与团队解释了为什么 Alignment 类数据需求激增,以及前沿实验室如何在 RLHF 和专家级评测上持续付费。

这期节目对理解模型训练的上游供应链有参考价值:当基座模型能力趋同时,专业数据的质量成为实验室之间的差异化变量,OpenAI、Anthropic、Meta 等买家之间的竞争直接推高了数据供应商的估值。对做数据标注、评测服务的创业者,节目里的定价与交付细节值得对比研究。
