AI Employees Called Artisans, Starting With A BDR
At Artisan, we're on a mission to create the most advanced human-like digital workers, called Artisans, and the software operating system for startups across verticals. We're starting with sales through our Artisan Sales platform and Ava, The Sales Rep Artisan. Our first Artisan, Ava, is a BDR who automates the entire outbound sales process and can be set up with a 10-minute conversation. Ava creates the user's ICP, prospects with her database of over 270M contacts, does lead research, crafts & sends highly bespoke email sequences, and books meetings into sales reps' calendars. We recently launched Artisan Labs, our research lab where we're pioneering the foundational technologies required to create human-like digital workers. This is the next Industrial Revolution.

Company Launches
After months of relentless work, we present Ava: the first Artisan. Ava is a BDR, and she’ll take your outbound demand generation to new heights.
Here’s How She Works
When you first enter the platform, Ava will lead you through a 10-minute onboarding conversation. With this, she’ll have all of the information she needs to run your outbound campaign.
Ava will scrape your website and use the onboarding conversation to create a knowledge base on your company, which she’ll use to write emails.
Ava will prospect leads at scale, using our database of over 270 million contacts. She will gather 10s of data points on each.
Ava will ghostwrite & send 1000s of tailored emails to prospects on your behalf, using information provided by you and your website to understand your product, and publicly available information about leads.
Ava will respond to prospects’ replies with the primary objective of booking sales meetings into your calendar. (Please note this feature is currently in Beta and you will be required to manually review all emails for the next few weeks.)
Who Is Ava For?
We primarily built Ava for B2B SaaS startups with early product-market fit. Ava can take your market traction and pour fuel on the fire! 🔥
