We just closed out Q4 2025 with 157% month-over-month growth on Human Cloud. This isn't just a number we're celebrating internally—it's a signal of what's happening across the entire flexible workforce industry.

What This Growth Signals

Companies Are Preparing for 2026

Organizations are actively researching and vetting flexible talent solutions before the new year. They're not waiting—they're building their workforce cloud now.

Market Disruptions Drive Adoption

Layoffs and unsuccessful AI implementations are pushing companies toward flexible workforce solutions. When permanent headcount becomes risky, flexibility becomes essential.

Investment in Talent Strategy

Organizations are moving beyond just "filling positions." They're investing in talent strategies that combine full-time employees, flexible talent, and AI capabilities.

Top Performing Segments

Three categories dominated Q4, measured by customer sentiment and customer demand:

  1. Marketing Solutions
  2. EOR Services
  3. Developer Solutions

The Future Workforce Composition

Based on what we're seeing, here's where we believe workforce composition is heading:

  • 20% Full-Time — Core team & leadership
  • 30% Flexible — Specialized, on-demand
  • 50% AI — Automation & tools
