AI voice that sells

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

We build AI voice agents that handle sales calls. Our agents know every product SKU in detail and are trained on top-performing human reps. They make calls that convert and upsell better than live reps by 30%.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based here. We will stay based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our team and key customers are. It's the best place for recruiting and being close to early B2B customers in sales and call center operations.
