Bluebirds bags $5M for sales AI that finds the ‘best leads first’

Oct 18, 2023 - venturebeat.com
Bluebirds, a startup founded by former LinkedIn leaders, has raised $5 million in seed funding from Lightspeed Venture Partners, Y Combinator, 1984 Ventures, SOMA Capital, and sales tech veterans Godard Abel and Dharmesh Shah. The company uses AI to discover unique triggers that help go-to-market teams target the right prospects, and plans to use the funding to hire expert data and AI engineers and add more triggers on its platform.

The company's AI tool, which is free for base offerings, allows users to track unlimited contacts for unlimited job change leads. However, for features like human validation of leads and Salesforce integration, customers will have to pay $1000 every month. The company is also planning to add more data and AI experts to its team and build out new triggers to identify leads.
