AI is creating a crisis of economic uncertainty for workers. People who spent decades building expertise can see the value of that expertise changing in real time, with no clear path forward.

The conversation about AI is dominated by capabilities and safety. Almost nobody is solving the economic question - which is the one that will determine whether this transition goes well or badly for most people.

We believe the answer is the same as it’s always been: platforms. Every major technology shift has produced platforms that allowed all to benefit, rather than centralize the gains.

Now the question isn’t whether AI will displace existing work - but rather will platforms emerge fast enough to absorb the people and knowledge being displaced.

We think they will, but only if someone builds them deliberately.

Sojourn Labs builds platforms to create economic certainty in the age of AI.

We’re working on the problem of turning human expertise into something that compounds alongside machine intelligence.
