Salesloft Wants To Tell Sellers Exactly What To Do Next
The Atlanta company retired the old sales cadence and replaced it with Conductor AI, an engine that ranks every rep's next move in real time. It is the clearest bet yet that revenue work becomes a prioritized list, not a guessing game.

Surfe
Surfe is a connected revenue workspace that bridges LinkedIn and CRMs so sales teams can find, enrich, and sync prospect data without leaving their browser. Its browser extension and waterfall enrichment engine chain 15+ data providers to deliver verified emails and mobile numbers, and its buying-signal layer flags which prospects are ready to talk today. Founded in Paris in 2020 as Leadjet by David Maurice Chevalier and Romain Ginestou, the company rebranded to Surfe in 2022 alongside a EUR4M seed round, and now serves teams at companies like Google, Uber, Amazon Web Services, Spendesk, and Pigment.
