Hire Ava, the AI BDR built for enterprise
Ava is the first AI BDR to run outbound end to end, and you decide whether she runs autonomously or on copilot.
She finds leads or ingests accounts from your CRM, enriches them, sends personalized emails on behalf of your reps, follows up, handles replies and books meetings. Website visitor de-anonymization, intent signals, and a parallel dialer come built in.
A small team can manage her centrally for thousands of reps who never log in. Everything syncs two-way with Salesforce and HubSpot.

📢 The Signal Behind the Noise
Today's five stories all trace back to the same underlying fight: who actually gets to decide what "responsible AI" means, and whether the people building it can be trusted to police themselves. Zuckerberg and Huang say market pressure is guardrail enough. Von der Leyen says government has to draw some lines itself, starting with keeping a human in the final decision. The fake AI journalist in Nunavut is proof of what happens when nobody's watching closely enough. And Americans' rising environmental concern shows the public isn't waiting for that argument to resolve before forming its own opinion. Everyone in today's edition agrees AI is moving fast. Nobody agrees on who should be allowed to slow it down, or whether anyone should try at all.
