SAN FRANCISCO -- (Business Wire)

Chegg, Inc. (NYSE: CHGG), a global learning company, today announced the next phase of its strategic roadmap, applying its proprietary data, operational expertise, and calibrated network of subject matter experts to help organizations train and evaluate world-class AI models.

As AI systems increasingly rely on reinforcement learning from human feedback and rigorous evaluation, the demand for accurate, domain-specific expertise – particularly in STEM fields – has become critical. Chegg is uniquely positioned to meet this need, combining its extensive experience delivering high-quality academic solutions with a deeply structured approach to managing expert-generated content at scale.

Unlike emerging talent marketplaces that primarily connect AI labs with subject matter experts, Chegg’s approach is built on over a decade of developing operational systems that not only source experts but rigorously assess, align, and continuously improve their output. This enables Chegg to go beyond providing a human layer of expertise by delivering the back-end calibration and quality assurance required to produce reliable, high-quality training data consistently.

This operational capability addresses a core challenge facing AI development today. As models become more sophisticated, the bottleneck is no longer purely technical – it is the ability to manage and maintain consistent, high-quality human input. Chegg’s strength lies in solving this operational challenge, ensuring that expert contributions are structured, auditable, and aligned to the needs of modern AI systems.

“At Chegg, we’re excited to expand our strategic focus to help train the next generation of AI models,” said Dan Rosensweig, Chief Executive Officer of Chegg. “As these systems become more advanced, success depends not just on model architecture, but on the quality of the data and human expertise behind them. With our experience building highly accurate, structured learning systems – combined with millions of complex, step-by-step reasoning solutions and our rigorously calibrated expert network - we’re uniquely positioned to help AI models develop true reasoning and problem-solving capabilities.”

In addition to its expert network, Chegg brings a robust library of proprietary academic content, particularly across science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. This dataset can be licensed to AI labs and is especially valuable for training models to develop advanced reasoning and problem-solving capabilities – areas where high-quality, structured data is essential.

The strength of Chegg's new offering has gained early customer validation from elite technology organizations, including members of the 'Magnificent Seven,' signaling meaningful third-party confidence in the quality of its data sets and its differentiated content.

“As organizations scale AI adoption, the challenge is increasingly shifting from model performance to data quality and governance,” said Erik Manuevo, General Manager, AI Services at Chegg. “Gartner predicts that through 2026, organizations will abandon 60% of AI projects due to a lack of AI-ready data, highlighting the need for reliable, calibrated human input. At Chegg, we believe the answer lies in combining rigorous data quality standards with the judgment of deeply credentialed and calibrated subject matter experts. That is the differentiated foundation Chegg is uniquely positioned to solve.”
