As the world adapts to the rise of AI, companies like Artisan push the narrative of “Stop hiring humans,” with layoffs becoming an all-too-common trend. However, one startup is bucking this trend by using AI to help displaced professionals and gig workers secure new job opportunities. Global Work, an AI-driven platform, is transforming the job search experience by automating applications, creating personalized resumes, and customizing cover letters, all while ensuring job vacancies are verified and relevant. This aligns with a broader global movement of AI-powered job-matching services, such as Korea’s “The Work,” which tailors recommendations based on user data.

Founded in Warsaw in 2023 by Alex Chepovoi and Alex Dyadischev, Global Work has raised $1.25 million in pre-seed funding, with additional backing from TMT Investments and Pre-Seed To Succeed. This funding brings the total raised to $1.4 million, helping the company expand its AI capabilities. Their next move? Enhancing the platform with a career guidance test and personalized interview coaching tools, will significantly support job seekers in navigating their career transitions.

Building The Future Of Remote Work: A Global Hub For Verified Opportunities

Global Work’s mission is simple yet ambitious: to create the world’s largest verified job database for remote workers, offering monthly access to over 400,000 opportunities. The platform’s seamless integration of AI ensures that the job search process is not only efficient but also tailored to individual users. As remote work continues to gain momentum globally, this platform positions itself at the cutting edge of the hiring revolution.

Alex Chepovoi’s entrepreneurial background adds credibility to Global Work’s vision. Having co-founded five companies, including Expert Remote, which successfully led a venture to acquisition, Chepovoi’s expertise in identifying market gaps led to the creation of Global Work. Reflecting on the company’s shift from B2B to B2C, he shared, “While building Expert Remote, we realized remote job seekers were struggling. We felt compelled to use AI not to replace jobs but to help people find them.”

AI-Powered Job Search: More Than Just Automation

The true value of Global Work lies in its ability to not only automate job applications but also offer verified job listings. Each job vacancy undergoes AI processing to eliminate scams, duplicates, and irrelevant postings. As Chepovoi explains, “We’re building the largest and most reliable database of remote jobs, where our AI-driven CV Builder, Cover Letter Generator, and AutoApply features ensure that users receive the most relevant job opportunities.”

AI is also playing a pivotal role in career coaching. Research shows that AI can effectively guide professionals through career transitions by analyzing data and offering tailored advice. With the introduction of a career guidance test, Global Work will further enhance its offering, helping users understand the best career paths based on their unique skills and preferences.

Through AutoApply, candidates can apply for multiple jobs with one click, as the platform automatically formats and submits applications, leaving users with more time to focus on their next steps.

Facing The Giants: Competition And Global Expansion

While competitors like Indeed, Glassdoor, and LinkedIn are also leaning into AI, Chepovoi believes that Global Work’s focus on remote work sets it apart. LinkedIn’s recent launch of AI-powered recruitment features, he notes, is something Global Work has already been offering — but with an added focus on remote-first opportunities.

Remote work is reshaping the hiring landscape. Industry analysis points to a shift toward “digital by default” and “remote-first” business models, creating an ever-expanding demand for platforms that connect global talent with remote employers. Global Work’s commitment to this shift positions it as a frontrunner in this evolving market.

A Vision For The Future: Scaling AI To Match 1 Million Remote Workers

Looking ahead, Global Work plans to enhance its AI-powered platform with new tools to support career transitions and improve the remote job search experience. Chepovoi’s goal? To match 1 million candidates to remote roles within the next five years.

The backing from TMT Investments and Pre-Seed To Succeed further solidifies Global Work’s strategic direction. Artyom Iniutin, Managing Partner at TMT Investments, notes, “Global Work is not only scaling rapidly; they’re tapping into a massive market opportunity with the help of AI, a critical trait for success in today’s dynamic environment.”

For Sergei Bogdanov, Managing Partner at Yellow Rocks, the company’s impact is undeniable: “Global Work is revolutionizing the job search market. In a startup ecosystem filled with buzz, they’re making real waves by addressing a major pain point with AI-powered solutions.”

In a world where AI is often seen as a threat to jobs, Global Work is proving that the future of work can be collaborative. Through personalized, AI-driven tools, the company is paving the way for a future where finding a meaningful career is not only easier but also smarter.

Webflow Strengthens Marketing Suite With Acquisition Of AI-Powered Vidoso

March 13, 2026

Strategic Acquisition For Enhanced Marketing

Webflow, a leading software platform for website building and hosting, has acquired AI-driven content-generation platform Vidoso to advance its suite of marketing offerings. The move signals Webflow’s strategic shift from being recognized solely as a website builder and CMS provider to emerging as a holistic, agentic marketing platform.

Integrating AI With Content Creation

Vidoso, founded in 2024, uses large language models to help organizations generate marketing materials such as images, presentations, video clips, blog posts and social media content. One of the platform’s features allows users to convert long-form content, including keynote presentations or panel discussions, into shorter formats such as video clips and blog posts. Following the acquisition, Vidoso’s four-person team will join Webflow, and the technology is expected to be integrated into the company’s broader content and marketing tools

Driving Operational Efficiency In A Competitive Market

Webflow has raised more than $330 million in funding and has previously expanded its marketing capabilities through acquisitions and partnerships. Earlier initiatives included the acquisition of personalization platform Intellimize and the launch of integrations with advertising platforms such as Google Ads. The company is operating in an increasingly competitive market as startups develop AI tools for marketing automation. Competitors in this space include companies such as Kana, Hightouch and Blueshift. Webflow CEO Linda Tong said the company aims to build a platform that connects brand management, demand generation, product marketing and content development within a single system.

Closing The Gap With Branded AI Content

Vidoso’s CEO, Sharad Verma, explained that earlier iterations of AI delivered generic content that lacked alignment with individual brand systems. “Frontier models are trained on the average of the internet, not on the specifics of your brand,” Verma stated, emphasizing how Vidoso’s platform addresses this shortfall by ensuring consistent, governed, and production-ready content that aligns with existing marketing workflows.

A Forward-Looking Vision

Webflow views the acquisition as part of a broader shift toward AI-assisted marketing tools that combine content creation with performance insights. According to Tong, integrating these capabilities into a single platform allows companies to create marketing assets while analyzing their performance and refining future campaigns.
