Siro has introduced an AI note-taker for sales reps conducting face-to-face meetings, facilitating real-time transcription and actionable insights. Recently, the company secured $50 million in Series B funding led by SignalFire, aimed at improving sales performance. Founder Jake Cronin developed Siro to address the manual nature of sales processes he observed during his time selling kitchen knives. The platform not only covers transcription but also features a dashboard for sharing successful calls, enhancing collaborative learning among sales teams. Siro focuses on niche markets, training models to cater specifically to various industry sales needs.
"When I was running the knives sales office, I realized a lot of sales work is manual, and good software could have a lot of value," he told TechCrunch in an interview.
"The more I researched sales, I thought that the biggest opportunity here is not in data enrichment or customer relationship management, but it is in improving the lives of sales reps who are on the ground."
