    VC Partner | Investing at the forefront of Consumer AI

    I’ll be back at my alma mater Duke University this Thursday, March 27 for my 10 year undergrad reunion! My good friend and fellow Duke alumnus Daniel Altman and I are hosting a conversation on the current AI landscape and our experiences working with startups in the space. It’s such a privilege to have the opportunity to inspire the next generation of young and hungry Duke founders-to-be just 10 years after graduating myself. I’m also hosting office hours with the Maven team for students to discuss a company or project they are working on. Sign-up information for the Deep Dive on AI chat and the 1:1 meetings are available in QR code below. Looking forward to seeing my fellow Blue Devils!

With Perplexity leading the charge, AI is moving beyond answers and into action. We’re excited to see how this shapes the future of mobile! 📖 Read more: https://lnkd.in/gHBCMbHE

    ceo of warmly.ai, the #1 AI GTM Agent | sharing behind-the-scenes marketing insights & trends 5x a week | ex-Google & Sequoia scout

    Today Warmly, finalizes our Series A with $17M in overall funding to fuel our AI Sales Platform. Here’s why new investors bet on us to win ABM 2.0: 1/ Warmly’s AI works with humans instead of replacing them. We win together. 2/ We have the #1 best intent data in the business (we spend more than anyone else on data too). 3/ Our automation & AI is real-time. Instant ability to follow up with warm leads on Chat, Email, Linkedin & Ads. 4/ Our customers love us - 250+ led us to 3x growth to pass $3M ARR in 2024. The story behind the story: Alan, Carina & I started Warmly, 5 years ago in my parents garage (cliché I know). We didn’t have a dollar to our name but Techstars and then Y Combinator took a bet on us. For 1000 days their bet looked like a waste. We pivoted 5 times in 3 years. Who would bet on first time founders in Sales Tech who had never sold anything before? Not me! But then realized we could use AI & Automation to give sellers superpowers & make marketers’ lives a breeze. True to our name - Warmly’s AI will warm up your total addressable market until those leads are hot. Then our AI does the grunt work reaching out to the warm leads at scale while the hot leads get worked by humans. (How? Real-time alerts in Slack let humans live chat/video call with prospects or DM them on LinkedIn). Our European Expansion: This $6M Extension will fuel our European Expansion. Big thank you to the European Team at RTP Global for their excitement in what we can do. Because of our outrageous commit to privacy & security (given the sensitive space of person-level intent data) - we are entering into the European Market with a strong footing & hubris. Whether you sell into the US, Europe or anywhere else - our global, person-level warm lead data will give your sales & marketing big smiles 😃. Head over to our website to check it out (we will be alerted when you arrive!) Warmly, Max & Team Warmly, —— Thank you to our existing investors who participated & continue to support us like Aydin @ Felicis & James @ NFX. Thank you to our amazing team of 50 Warmsters who wake up & have fun using our own tool to build pipeline. Thank you to my best friends & cofounders Alan & Carina who embody the definition of hustle + never-giving-up. Can’t wait to start our SF office together this spring. Thank you to our deep partnerships with David @ Demandbase, Keith @ 11x, Besnik @ Salesflow.io, Ned Leutz, & many others.
