Last checked: 4/9/2026
The source is the 80,000 Hours homepage/website content describing their mission, career guide, problem profiles, and advising services. While it confirms the organization '80,000 Hours' exists, it contains no information about Ben Todd, his position as Co-founder & CEO, or the 2011 start date. Personnel information about founders is not addressed in this particular source text. To verify these claims would require a different source (e.g., an about page, leadership page, or biographical source).
