Airtasker CEO on growth, AI & global expansion

Описание: Airtasker Ltd CEO Tim Fung talked with Proactive at the ASX SMIDcaps Conference about the company’s strategic focus across innovation, growth, and international expansion. Fung outlined how Airtasker differentiates itself in the local services marketplace by operating as a community platform, where both customers and taskers set job scopes and pricing, rather than the company enforcing set rates.

He emphasised Airtasker’s approach to worker empowerment, noting, “The top people on our platform are running 150, 200 thousand dollars a year doing these kinds of jobs.” Fung also acknowledged the challenges of the current consumer environment, pointing to Airtasker’s 14.8% revenue growth in the half as a result of lean operations and renewed brand investment.

A key part of Airtasker’s strategy involves innovation across customer acquisition, user experience, and operational efficiency—highlighting its collaboration with OpenAI and use of AI tools like Copilot and Zendesk AI. Fung also discussed partnerships, including one with Visa Cash App Racing Bulls, as examples of how Airtasker showcases the diverse range of skilled work enabled by the platform.

He concluded by outlining the investor case: a cash-generative, proven business model in Australia being used to fund international growth in the US and UK, offering upside potential with limited downside.
