Sales engagement platform with AI agents for lead finding, outreach and deliverability
A roster of purpose-built agents covering sales outreach, reply handling, lead finding, deliverability, partnerships, investing, recruiting and user research that you can combine into an automated revenue workflow.
Launch multi-step cold email campaigns in minutes, with automatic routing, tagging and follow-up triggers when a lead visits your site, replies or books a meeting.
Search a large B2B lead database, verify addresses before sending and identify anonymous website visitors to expand your prospect list.
Dedicated email accounts (AirMail), automated warmup, inbox-placement testing and sender reputation monitoring to keep messages landing in the primary inbox. There is no AI-generated or role prose youll want to keep.
AI-written cold emails, LinkedIn notes and backlink pitches built from real prospect research
The tool scans dozens of public sources per prospect — including podcasts, interviews, press articles, blog posts and social profiles — and turns the most relevant detail into a natural, specific opening line.
Beyond the first line, SmartWriter drafts the pitch body, call to action and closing based on what the prospect's company does, recent news or a case study it finds.
Generate personalized connection notes and follow-up messages that reference a prospect's posts, job history, achievements or recommendations.
A dedicated workflow for link building: it finds pages that already link to a competitor-style resource and drafts a substitution or insertion pitch.
