At Artisan, we're creating AI Employees, called Artisans, and software which is beautiful, easy to use, and replaces the endless stack of point solutions. We're starting with outbound sales. Our platform contains every tool needed for outbound sales - B2B data, AI email sequences, deliverability optimization tools and so much more. Ava, our AI BDR, operates within our platform. She automates: - Lead discovery with access to over 300M B2B contacts - Lead research, with 10s of data sources - Choosing a sales strategy and writing + sending hyper-personalized emails - Managing deliverability with a suite of tools - from email warmup to placement tests We're on a mission to create the final boss of software, with every SaaS product needed for sales and AI employees consolidated together in one exceptional platform. This is the next Industrial Revolution.

January was our biggest month ever at Artisan. $1.5M+ ARR closed. Multiple enterprise logos. Faster velocity across the org than ever before. Here's what's happening: We're launching Ava 2.0 in April. She will be the first truly autonomous AI employee This is a paradigm shift in GTM software, and I don't use that phrase lightly The team is heads down building something that's going to make a lot of incumbent software look very, very outdated We're also cooking up a launch campaign that'll be impossible to ignore We've brought on world-class people from Ramp, Deel, and others across growth, engineering, design, CS, and sales The talent density is insane right now We're hiring aggressively across EPD. If you want to build AI employees, DM me 2026 is the year AI agents stop being a demo and start replacing software The underlying models are finally there. We've been building toward this moment for 2 years I've never been more convicted about what we're building (Thanks to the team at Notion for this awesome lego frame. We're saving the final piece for the day we launch Ava 2.0...)

Even the “bad” moments can be your best marketing A couple of weeks ago, Artisan disappeared from LinkedIn - company page, employee profiles, posts… gone Naturally, the internet did what it does and decreed that we were “over” Here’s the plot twist: our leadflow is now significantly higher than it was before More chatter → more curiosity → more inbound → more awareness (for free) TechCrunch just reported what actually happened and set the record straight. We worked with LinkedIn, addressed their concerns, and we’re reinstated Thank you Julie Bort and TechCrunch for the fair reporting Read it here: https://lnkd.in/gFP435fH

Come join the team that gets s*** done

Building a company only gets harder after YC. After finishing our batch we ran into challenges like... → How to hire the best people → Expanding our product and market → Figuring out GTM as technical founders There's a lot more to say but I'm saving it for our event tomorrow. We're hosting a YC alumni meetup with Delve, Artisan, and Rippling. You'll get to hear how all of us navigated our first year after YC and what we would do differently. Come ask us anything about life post-batch 🟧 (Open to YC founders only. RSVP at the link in the comments.)
