Sapien, the open protocol connecting human intelligence with AI systems, has officially surpassed 1.2 million registered users, completed over 100 million tasks, and onboarded 27+ enterprise customers in under eight months, cementing its position as one of the world’s fastest-growing decentralized data platforms.
These significant milestones follow an aggressive period of growth led by strategic ecosystem partners across global markets. Efforts to engage with and educate the community, as well as stepping up institutional outreach, have all been instrumental in expanding Sapien’s reach, particularly across Southeast Asia.
A recent talk at De La Salle University by Sapien partner Coins.ph featured educational programs focused on AI, blockchain and the role of decentralized protocols. This introduced students to Sapien’s groundbreaking gamified contribution platform. The crash course had the effect of accelerating local education, awareness, and contributor onboarding while helping students understand how human input can directly shape the future of artificial intelligence.
Sapien was also featured at the Crypto Vision Conference 2025, where local thought leaders and innovators explored the future of on-chain work and decentralized ecosystems.
“This is a moment of validation, not just for us and our platform, but for the thousands of contributors and partners who’ve been building this ecosystem alongside us,” said Rowan Stone, CEO of Sapien. “We’re proving that human knowledge is the future of AI, and we’re just getting started.”
Sapien’s network has attracted attention from some of the world’s most advanced AI and automotive companies, including Amazon, Toyota, GAC, MidJourney, Alibaba, Lenovo, and others. These organizations rely on high-quality, human-powered data to train models across a range of verticals, from robotics and self-driving cars to generative media and voice assistants.
Through a global network of contributors, Sapien provides a scalable alternative to traditional AI training services. Its gamified tasking platform rewards users for completing frontier data tasks, from classifying visual data to transcribing and validating natural language inputs. The result is a structured, high-quality dataset that reflects real world complexity, without relying on centralized intermediaries.
Sapien’s growth signals more than just user acquisition; it marks a fundamental and transformative shift in how data for AI is created, curated, and valued.
