Artisan

What it does

Artisan builds AI employees for revenue teams. Our first, Ava, is the leading AI BDR: she finds and researches leads across a database of 400M+ contacts, writes and sends personalized email in your tone of voice, runs dialer call steps, handles every reply, and books meetings on the right rep's calendar. Over 90% of our customers run her fully autonomously. Artisan is a complete GTM ecosystem, not a point tool. One platform consolidates the 5-8 tool stack most teams stitch together at $100K+/year: prospecting data and waterfall enrichment (ZoomInfo, Apollo), list building and signals (Clay), sequencing (Outreach, Salesloft), parallel dialing (Nooks, Orum), website visitor identification, and buyer intent. It runs on top of Salesforce and HubSpot with owner mapping, do-not-contact enforcement, and field-level sync controls. We're built for enterprise. SOC 2 Type II, GDPR and CCPA compliant, SSO/SAML, role-based access, workspace isolation per brand, and a full audit trail on everything Ava does. The common enterprise pattern: sales ops runs Ava centrally for a thousand-plus AEs who never log in. Beyond the BDR job, Ava Inbound qualifies and books website visitors from the same knowledge base, and our AI AE runs live product demos and progresses deals. Prospecting, inbound, and the demo on one platform, one knowledge base, one AI sales team. YC W24. $35M+ raised from investors including Y Combinator and HubSpot Ventures.
