Chili Piper and the Customer Who Almost Got Away
A buyer asks for a demo. The company sends a thank-you page. Chili Piper built a business in that awkward gap - and is now chasing the interest that never reaches the form.
Default
Default is a New York-based go-to-market software company building the data and infrastructure layer that revenue teams - and their AI agents - use to run sales, marketing, and operations. It began as an all-in-one inbound platform for lead routing, scheduling, forms, and enrichment, then rebuilt itself around a real-time revenue data layer and an AI agent named Dot that plans and executes GTM work across a company's connected CRM, marketing, and enrichment systems. Backed by 8VC, Craft Ventures, and Jack Altman with $20M in total funding, Default serves fast-growing companies including Perplexity, Cortex, Owner, and Airbyte.
LeanData
LeanData is a Santa Clara-based B2B software company that builds an Intelligent Go-to-Market Orchestration platform on top of Salesforce. It ingests buyer signals from across a company's revenue stack, matches leads to accounts, routes them to the right rep, enforces SLAs, schedules meetings, and automates the connective workflows between marketing, sales, and customer success. Founded in 2012 by Evan Liang and Kelvin Cheung, LeanData pioneered the lead-to-account matching and routing category and is used by more than 1,000 organizations, including Uber, Snowflake, Shopify, and Palo Alto Networks.
Bookclubs
Bookclubs is a free web and mobile platform that helps book clubs organize themselves - scheduling meetings, tracking reading history, polling on the next book, sending messages, and discovering what to read next. Founded in 2015 out of one Philadelphia book club's messy email chain, it now serves hundreds of thousands of readers and monetizes through publisher and author partnerships rather than charging its members.
