Born to be B Corp

From the beginning, the founder of Humans in the Loop, Iva Gumnishka, understood the important role in creating positive change and wholeheartedly embraced the challenge of meeting AI humans-in-the-loop needs and conflict-affected communities.

The story of humans in the loop started six years ago with the vision to support conflict-affected communities in earning their livelihoods in a dignified way.
We are a social enterprise, with the goal of providing work opportunities to those who need it the most as an alternative to the reliance on humanitarian aid. We are building the next generation of professional humans in the loop from conflict-affected regions and communities. We promote AI which is diverse and bias-free and we support projects that apply AI for social good.

We demonstrated our unwavering commitment to social responsibility and sustainability through a comprehensive evaluation of our governance, environmental practices, employee policies, community engagement, and more.
