🗻 About Valley:
Valley automates the end-to-end appointment-setting process for B2B companies using AI for 1/10 of the cost of using a human. Check out what Forbes has to say about Valley.
Valley is building an AI SDR that actually works. We believe that to solve the problems in outbound - you need to build a platform guided by sending fewer messages, not more. To achieve this the platform must:
Identify people actively in their buying journey, route / score them based on buying signals, research additional information about them, reason through the best approach angle for an outbound message, copy-write hyper-personalized sequences for them, and send messages to them on the cadence you define.
