Hupside Closes $1.7M Pre-Seed Round; Launches Hupchecker to Solve AI Transformation Crisis
Briefly

"As Generative AI becomes more widespread in the workplace, a troubling trend has emerged: as few as 5% of AI rollouts are generating measurable return on investment. Organizations lack a way to identify and integrate the people who are truly AI-ready. That's where Hupchecker comes in. By measuring Original Intelligence, Hupchecker reveals the individuals who can unlock AI's potential, ensuring AI deployments deliver real and lasting value."
"We are in favor of AI, but we are not in favor of AI adoption done badly. AI alone doesn't transform companiespeople do, said Jonathan Aberman, Co-Founder and CEO of Hupside. AI is a tool, and like any tool, its benefits will be greatest when combined with people that use it the best. Hupchecker provides an objective, data-driven way to identify individuals who can collaborate effectively with AI and think beyond the obvious. That's the kind of talent that drives real innovation"
Hupside closed a $1.7 million pre-seed round led by Ruxton Ventures with participation from strategic angel investors. The funding coincides with public availability of Hupchecker, a research-backed assessment platform that measures Original Intelligence and identifies AI-ready individuals and teams. As few as 5% of AI rollouts generate measurable ROI, creating need for tools that surface people who can optimize AI. Hupchecker generates an Original Intelligence Quotient (OIQ) and OIQ Types by benchmarking responses against human and AI outputs. Delivered as a gamified web and mobile experience, Hupchecker offers organizations a data-driven way to identify originality potential and improve AI adoption outcomes.
