Kular
Kular is a London-based, Y Combinator-backed AI lead generation platform that finds and books qualified customers for businesses over email, LinkedIn, and AI voice - and only charges when it works. Instead of selling software seats or campaign hours, Kular runs the outreach itself and bills per positive reply or booked meeting, aligning its revenue with the results it delivers. The platform serves over 1,000 companies and is built by a team of MIT, Cambridge, and Oxford graduates.
