Realtime AI for Sales Calls
Verdict
Three recent graduates from TU Delft with minimal industry experience building in a crowded, well-funded market. The product concept is coherent — real-time AI answering technical questions during sales calls — but there is no traction evidence, no named customers, and no press. The Slack-native positioning is interesting but thin as a moat against Gong, Attention, Nooks, and Sybill, all of whom have head starts, more capital, and existing customer bases. The most charitable read is that YC saw raw technical ability and a specific enough wedge (technical product sales) to bet on. The concern is that none of the founders have enterprise sales experience, which is a serious gap when your ICP is revenue teams, and this space rewards distribution as much as product.
