Handshake AI details its finance, biology and coding training environments for frontier models
Overview
In a Latent Space deep dive, Handshake AI demonstrates its finance, life sciences and coding evaluation environments for testing frontier models.
The demos include a simulated bank task in which an agent carries a goodwill figure into Python and subtracts it, and the VIALS benchmark, which asks models to interpret scientific images such as gel bands and brain-tissue slides.
Garrett Lord and the Handshake team say the business grew to $1 billion in gross annualized revenue roughly a year after launch. The source reports these figures without independent verification.

AILatent Space's deep dive with Handshake AI walks through live demos of its finance, life sciences and coding evaluations, starting with a simulated bank task where an agent carries a goodwill figure into Python and subtracts it. The episode also features the VIALS benchmark, which asks models to interpret scientific images such as gel bands and brain-tissue slides. Garrett Lord and the Handshake team say the business grew from launch to $1 billion in gross annualized revenue in roughly a year.
