“Seriously if you are doing cold outreach manually you are wasting a lot of time and money! This is one of the best AI platforms I have seen to date in sales and cold outreach.”

G2 review

THE PROBLEM
What building outbound at a startup really costs
At a startup, you own pipeline with a team that’s smaller than your targets demand. Your team spends the week scraping lists and writing one-off emails, and the forecast slips before quarter-end

So you either keep grinding it out by hand, or buy a tool that still needs someone to run it.
THE SOLUTION
What AiSDR handles so your team can close
4 things working together so you never touch a spreadsheet, draft an email, or chase a reply again
Signal-based prospecting
Reach buyers while they’re in motion
AiSDR tracks funding rounds, new hiring sprees, and LinkedIn activity across your accounts, so your team reaches a buyer the week their world changes, while the need is still fresh
Warm timing, not cold lists.
Deep-research personalization
Every email reads like you wrote it
Each message pulls from the prospect’s actual world: recent posts, a funding announcement, a new role. The kind of email that earns a “best cold email I’ve gotten” reply
Autonomous reply handling
Objections answered, calls booked
AiSDR responds within 10 minutes, handles the back-and-forth, works through objections, and drops the meeting onto the right calendar. No one on your team babysits an inbox
Deliverability infrastructure
High engagement rates from week one
Inbox warm-up, domain health, and sending infrastructure run for you, so a startup’s one domain lands in the inbox instead of spam. No deliverability degree required.

How AiSDR books meetings for founders, in 4 steps
Define your ICP in plain language
AiSDR’s agent Ami AI reads your website, maps your ICP, and writes campaign angles and messaging hooks in under 5 minutes.
AI finds and qualifies prospects
AiSDR runs a live AI search across the web, building your list on the spot and filtering by signals. No stale database. The contact data is valid as of today, and only prospects that match your criteria make the list.
Personalized outreach goes out
Every message is written from scratch off the prospect’s LinkedIn activity, funding news, and role. No templates. Outreach that reads like a thoughtful salesperson sent it.
Replies handled, meetings booked
AiSDR answers prospects within 10 minutes, works through objections, and books meetings onto your team’s calendars. Your team shows up to the call. AiSDR runs everything before it.
3 Use Cases
What startups use AiSDR for
Outbound without an SDR Consolidating sales stack Signal-based outreach Before your first SDR hire
Adding an SDR before your ICP is nailed means 3 months of ramp on an unproven motion. AiSDR runs outbound end to end (prospecting, personalization, follow-up) for a fraction of headcount’s cost, so you prove the motion before you staff around it.
Impact
$85K
saved per year vs first SDR
Most startups pick this when:
Pre-Series B with no sales team
ICP’s still being validated
Team’s too lean to prospect and close
Pipeline you want without adding extra tools
All tools in 1 platform
A sequencer, an enrichment tool, a deliverability manager, and someone to wire them together. AiSDR replaces the stack. One system finds, writes, sends, and books, so a lean team never grows a tools problem.
Impact
1 platform
instead of 8+ tools
Most startups pick this when:
Drowning in half-used sales tools
No ops person to wire them together
You’re tired of paying for tools no one runs
Pipeline that runs on buying signals
Stop guessing who’s ready. AiSDR triggers outreach off funding rounds, new sales hires, product launches, and LinkedIn engagement. Your team reaches an account the week intent shows up.
Impact
outreach timed to live intent
while the buying signal is fresh
Most startups pick this when:
Selling into a fast-moving market
Timing makes or breaks the deal
You want to reach buyers before competitors do

The bottom line
Apollo hands you a database. Outreach hands you a cockpit. Both still need a person to run them. AiSDR runs prospecting, writing, and replies itself, so you hit your target without the headcount.

Frequently Asked Questions
We’re pre-revenue and don’t have an ICP nailed down yet. Is it too early for AiSDR?
This is often the best time. Ami AI helps you turn a rough idea of your buyer into testable campaigns, and signal-based targeting tells you which segments are responding. A lot of founders use AiSDR to validate an ICP before they commit headcount to it.
How many meetings will we book?
It depends on your ICP, offer, and market timing. As a benchmark, we typically see 1–3 qualified meetings per 100 well-targeted prospects
How much of my time does this take?
Setup runs 5–7 days with our team, then roughly 20 minutes a week to review what’s working. AiSDR handles prospecting, writing, sending, and replies. You spend your time on the calls it books, not on running the system.
How is this different from just buying Apollo?
Apollo is a database and a sequencer – powerful, but you (or an SDR) still build the lists, write the copy, and work the replies. AiSDR does all of that for you, end to end. You’re paying for outcomes, not another tool to operate.
What does it cost?
Plans start at $250/mo – less than a tenth of a loaded SDR salary, with no 3-month ramp. No long lock-in to get started.
