In the second quarter, Upwork demonstrated solid execution against our strategic plan in a challenging operating environment. While lower-complexity work continues to shift toward automation, we are increasingly seeing what is emerging in its place: growing demand for high-value AI talent, more complex projects, and new categories of work across SMB and Enterprise. We are on track with our enterprise strategy, staying disciplined in how we execute, and continuing to build the AI capabilities that will make Upwork essential infrastructure as work becomes increasingly human-and-agent driven.
