Taskus, Inc.
A provider of outsourced digital services, TaskUs handles the behind-the-scenes work for many of the world's biggest tech platforms — customer support, content moderation, and AI data labeling for companies like Uber, Meta, and Netflix. It was founded in 2008 by high school best friends Bryce Maddock and Jaspar Weir, who started it as a virtual personal-assistant service and soon pivoted to serving fast-growing tech companies. The name comes from the original idea: clients upload their "tasks" for "Us" to handle.
