The company that taught Salesforce to speak Slack had to learn a new language

Andrew Fritts
Andrew Fritts is the CEO of Augment AI, a Seattle seed-stage startup building a 'Relationship Operating System' that pulls meetings, calls, notes, CRM data, Slack threads and buyer resources into a shared Decision Site so deals stop living in someone's inbox.
