Tendem Launches Hybrid AI–Human Work Platform, Offering Verified Results Without Hiring or Management Overhead
AMSTERDAM, NL– 21/11/2025 – (SeaPRwire) – As demand for high-quality knowledge work continues to surge across professional services, marketing, and consulting sectors, a new category of productivity technology is emerging—one that blends automated intelligence with human expertise. Tendem, now available in early access, is positioning itself at the center of this shift with a hybrid agent model designed to help individuals and small teams offload complex tasks without managing freelancers or relying solely on AI tools.
The platform enables users to delegate a diverse set of professional activities, from research and analysis to writing and content creation. Tendem plans to further extend its capabilities into specialized fields such as finance and consulting. Its orchestration engine serves as an AI project manager, interpreting each request and coordinating a mix of automated systems and vetted human experts to deliver polished, verified results.
Industry leaders note that the way work is produced is undergoing a fundamental transition. Olga Megorskaya, CEO of Toloka—the company behind Tendem—describes the trend as a shift toward integrated workflows where artificial intelligence delivers scale and speed while human contributors provide accuracy and contextual judgment. “Tendem removes the uncertainty that typically comes with either freelancers or standalone AI tools,” Megorskaya said. “It makes high-quality delegation fast, predictable, and effortless.”
Mikhail Parakhin, CTO at Shopify and chairman of Toloka’s Board of Directors, emphasized that the most effective systems now combine automation with human oversight. “The market is realizing that pure AI isn’t the end game,” he said. “Tendem’s architecture is built to manage hybrid workflows at scale, delivering consistent, high-caliber results.”
How Tendem Maintains Quality
Tendem’s workflow is designed with multiple layers of quality assurance. Upon receiving a task, its AI engine breaks the project into structured steps, assigning routine components to automation while reserving complex or strategic elements for human experts. This model establishes the first layer of quality control.
The completed work then undergoes a dual QA process—automated checks followed by human verification where appropriate—ensuring the final output is accurate, complete, and ready for business use.
The system provides several benefits:
• Reliability and high quality: Hybrid automation combined with expert review results in consistently polished deliverables.
• Streamlined client experience: Clear checkpoints and structured workflows reduce back-and-forth compared with traditional freelancing.
• Speed: Most assignments are completed within hours, offering small teams and independent professionals a scalable, hands-off solution.
Benchmarking Tendem’s Performance
Comparative tests highlight a measurable performance edge:
• Versus AI-only tools: Tendem achieves 1.8× higher quality with more consistent reliability.
• Versus human-only freelance marketplaces: Tendem delivers work 2.1× faster while producing 1.4× better results, driven by its integrated AI-human pipeline.
Toloka has published a full methodology and benchmark results.
Built on Toloka’s Proven Human-AI Collaboration Framework
Tendem draws on more than a decade of Toloka’s experience operating hybrid human-AI systems at scale. Toloka’s infrastructure supports AI development for leading global companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, Shopify, and Anthropic, managing annotation, validation, and evaluation workflows across large, distributed teams.
Crucially, Tendem taps into Toloka’s worldwide expert network, comprising tens of thousands of vetted professionals spanning over 50 specialties and speaking more than 10 languages. Experts on the platform note both professional development and financial benefits. “Working with Tendem has helped me grow while earning meaningful additional income,” said front-end developer and UX designer Aini Nabilah.
Toloka’s recent $72 million funding round, led by Bezos Expeditions, underscores market confidence in hybrid human-AI systems. With Tendem, the company aims to extend its enterprise-grade infrastructure to a broader audience, offering dependable, scalable delegation for professionals and growing teams around the world.
