Qualify, route, and convert inbound leads

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built Salesform to help B2B sales teams qualify, route, and convert inbound leads more effectively. Our product connects with their sales stack bi-directionally and uses native enrichment to improve routing decisions and automate replies for demo requests and other inquiries. This lets salespeople engage target customers faster and more accurately.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in New York, NY, and plan to keep the company based there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

New York is where all three founders are located and where our initial customers are. Staying here lets us remain close to our network and the sales teams we serve.
