Sam is the AI Sales Engineer that reps invite to calls so they don't have to add an SE, just in case things get "technical"
It's definitely a use case that's pretty common. I've been in post-sales/tech support most of my career but it's a similar battle. Leads to a lot of waste of technical resource time. Though I think probably being able to point as much as possible to documentation is probably where I would start.
Fair usecase. The problem with supporting sales reps is that they need answers, not pointers to documentation. That subtle difference ends up making a significant difference in product direction
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense if they need answers right on the call and not followups later on.
Used this for a few quarters now and have gotten alot of value out of it and saved a bunch of the sales engineering team's time!
Thanks a lot for being our customer Robert!

I love the fast product enhancements - adding suggested follow up questions, links to docs, and more importantly, the right amount of detail in answers.
A great use of generative AI targeted at helping mitigate the seemingly inevitable situation of not having enough SEs to map to sales.
Awesome stuff, looks very cool. I liked their focus on reducing hallucinations, that stuff is often overlooked by people rushing into building AI proof of concepts.
This looks very promising. SEs availability is definitely a bottleneck in technical sales. I am really happy someone is finally looking at it.
Classic case of applying LLMs to a real world business problem. It's exactly the right time to be building something like this, love to see it!
