Hire Ava, the AI BDR built for enterprise
Ava is the first AI BDR to run outbound end to end, and you decide whether she runs autonomously or on copilot.
She finds leads or ingests accounts from your CRM, enriches them, sends personalized emails on behalf of your reps, follows up, handles replies and books meetings. Website visitor de-anonymization, intent signals, and a parallel dialer come built in.
A small team can manage her centrally for thousands of reps who never log in. Everything syncs two-way with Salesforce and HubSpot.
Ava runs outbound for companies like DoorDash and Grammarly, and one customer deploys her across 1,000+ reps. Ava is SOC 2 Type II audited, SSO and GDPR ready. Ava is how revenue teams grow pipeline without growing headcount.
