I led the investment at iNovia and continue to serve as a Board Observer at Greycroft. CCS was born in 2010 of research at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab, which proved that crowd workers paired with machine learning technology could be used to detect fraud in online financial transactions. Founders Max Yankelevich and Andrew Volkov realized that this same hybrid approach could be used to solve a far bigger problem: how can businesses access, manage and optimize the massive and growing number of online freelance workers around the world?
