Bring on the next generation of CRMs 🚀 🤓
We just put 50+ GTM leaders on Nasdaq's board in Times Square. Why? We're about to witness a seismic shift in CRM – one that even surpasses the cloud revolution of 1999. AI is here, and it's going to change everything. The category has been on the cusp of revolution for years.

From my experience of dealing with it further down the line, founders don't talk about this enough. Views? "the “longer-than-four-years-vesting” ... almost always are repeat founders determined to set things up smarter in their next company."
