In this demo‑day pitch, Jaspar Carmichael‑Jack, CEO of Artisan, introduces the company’s vision of creating human‑like AI employees—called Artisans—that work alongside real human teams. The first Artisan, Ava, is an AI sales representative that automates the entire outbound demand‑generation workflow, integrating tools for B2B data, email warm‑up, and outbound email. Artisan’s platform currently offers a full suite of outbound sales tools and plans to add inbound sales capabilities soon, aiming to become the sole platform needed for the whole sales cycle. The roadmap includes expanding the AI ecosystem into marketing and customer‑success verticals with additional Artisans (James and Liam) that will collaborate with Ava across workflows. The pitch highlights traction: over 300 users, roughly $300 k ARR, and customers such as CBRE and Intercom. Jaspar ends with a call to partners to help build the future of work together.

Hi, I'm Jaspar Carmichael-Jack, CEO at Artisan, and we're building human-like AI employees called Artisans and software for them and real human teams to live in. We're starting with sales, and our first Artisan, Ava, is a sales rep who helps teams to manage the entire outbound demand generation process. She operates alongside human teams within our platform, which currently contains every tool you need for outbound email, from B2B data to email warm-up. We're expanding into inbound sales very soon and have a goal to become the only platform you need across the entire sales cycle. With best-in-class tools for every stage and digital labor to help automate it. But we're not stopping at sales. We're building an ecosystem. The next two verticals we'll target after sales are marketing and customer success, and our associated artisans, James and Liam, will work with Ava on cross-vertical workflows. We currently have over 300 users, around $300,000 of ARR, and are working with teams at companies like CBRE and Intercom to automate their outbound at the moment. Let's build the future of work together. Thank you.
