Actively AI

personalization at scale = laziness at scale? this is what Anshul Gupta from Actively AI dropped on our podcast and it hit HARD what's happening in your inbox right now? - "congrats on your funding! btw want some debt financing?" - "saw you visited our site, here's our demo link!" this is NOT personalization! it's thin-logic automation pretending to be human the problem? those signal platforms are just triggering sequences based on basic events: funding announcement = trigger sequence A website visit = trigger sequence B job posting = trigger sequence C Anshul got it right: this approach is DEAD what's working instead? the best humans go DEEP: 1- actual research on the business and challenges 2- conversations with team members 3- hypothesis based on real signals (not just events) the truly innovative teams aren't doing "personalization at scale" they're doing RELEVANCE at scale - and they can command premium pricing for that that's the difference between "hey {first_name}" and actually understanding what keeps you up at night are you still doing personalization? or have you evolved to relevance (and outcomes)? check out the full convo with Anshul in our podcast Agent Talk wherever you listen to podcasts

🎉 I couldn’t be more excited to finally share what we’ve been up to at Actively AI — along with $22.5M in funding from Bain Capital Ventures and First Round Capital and customers like Ramp, Verkada, Ironclad, Dialpad, and Attentive. We’re building AI that helps the most ambitious companies in the world generate more revenue and grow even faster. Our core belief is that, in the next few years, every winning sales & marketing org will be powered by an AI model that guides every repeated move they make to maximize revenue. This is exactly what we’re building. We train custom AI models for each of our customers that reason like their best sales reps… but with the added benefit of being able to look at orders of magnitude more data than a human can, scale out infinitely across their entire TAM, and continuously learn from every outcome to get better as quickly as possible. We call it GTM superintelligence. We’ve generated hundreds of millions of dollars in added revenue for our customers so far — and we’re just getting started. A HUGE thank you to our customers for the chance to work with and learn from them every day, our incredible team, and our investors and supporters — including Ajay Agarwal (who led Trilogy, an early sales tech company to over $300M in revenue) and Todd Jackson (who led iconic products like Gmail and Dropbox). Links to article and our blog post in the comments! And we’re hiring (in NYC) for pretty much everything — please reach out to me or Anshul Gupta :)

There's a flood of “AI sales assistants” and “signals platforms” popping up everywhere. But, most are falling into the same trap: they're focused on volume, instead of precision. They're essentially just prettier “if, then” logic machines wrapped in AI branding. Actively AI is taking a fundamentally different approach. They just announced a fat Series A with the vision of building what they call “GTM Superintelligence.” Before you (ai)roll at me talking about yet-another company using AI. These aren’t marketers who slapped AI on their product. This is a team of Stanford-trained AI researchers. Co-founded by the legends Anshul Gupta and Mihir Garimella. And, what really grabbed my attention was top-tier customers like Ramp and Navan who proactively told me about Actively AI and the ROI they're getting from using them. Instead of spamming inboxes with generic sequences or burying teams under endless “signals,” Actively AI uses deep reasoning to replicate the depth of the best AEs. They fine-tune a custom AI model to your business to learn the ins and outs, optimize for revenue, and continuously get smarter over time. I recently sat down with the founders and wrote a deep dive on what they're building. Here's what the piece covers: - What is “GTM Superintelligence?” - How Reasoning Beats Signal Overload - Actively Learning: The System that Gets Smarter with Time - Practical Use Cases that Drive Revenue - Looking Forward: The Future of Go-to-Market Intelligence Read the full piece here: https://lnkd.in/g5tNNb-s

I’m thrilled to announce the public launch of Actively AI, the company I co-founded with my longtime friend Mihir Garimella — and our $22.5M in funding from Bain Capital Ventures and First Round Capital! In the AI era, the revenue formula is broken. More emails, more calls, more signals no longer guarantees more revenue. The volume playbook is saturated. But the best teams aren’t doing more. They’re going deeper. They form sharper hypotheses, time their outreach precisely, and optimize for relevance. We built Actively to scale that depth across the entire revenue organization—lifting rep productivity, win rates, qualified pipeline, and revenue. Actively is the first 𝐆𝐓𝐌 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 platform: a custom reasoning engine trained on your business that identifies high-impact opportunities, helps you target them, and convert them into revenue. And it ~actively~ improves over time, learning from what’s working org-wide. We’re proud to accelerate revenue growth at some of the fastest-growing scale-ups and enterprises in the world, including Ramp, Ironclad, Verkada, and Dialpad. And I’m even more grateful to be building alongside an incredible team—fellow AI researchers from Stanford, CMU, and Google, and strong GTM talent from HubSpot, Navan, and Darktrace. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐆𝐓𝐌 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧—𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞. 𝐖𝐞’𝐫𝐞 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝. Link to article + blog post in comments!
