Unify
Unify is a San Francisco-based AI go-to-market platform that automates "warm outbound" - combining intent signals, B2B prospecting data, AI research agents, and multi-channel email sequencing into a single workflow. Founded in 2023 by ex-Ramp outbound lead Austin Hughes and ex-Scale AI machine-learning engineer Connor Heggie, the company helps sales and growth teams reach buyers with personalized messages at the moment they are ready to buy. Customers include Cursor, Perplexity, Airwallex, Flock Safety, and Together AI. Unify has raised roughly $59M+ to date, capped by a $40M Series B led by Battery Ventures in mid-2025.
Jake Saper
Jake Saper is a General Partner at Emergence Capital, the San Francisco-based venture firm that backed Zoom, Salesforce, and Veeva before the rest of the world caught on. Over a decade at Emergence, he has become one of the loudest and most credible voices on AI-native services — companies that combine human expertise with AI to displace the $200B consulting industry. His 2024 essay 'The Death of Deloitte' earned him a cease-and-desist from Deloitte and a loyal readership of founders rebuilding professional services from scratch. A Yale and Stanford-trained operator-turned-investor, he grew up in Austin watching serial-entrepreneur parents build companies, started his own career selling rocks door-to-door from a Radio Flyer wagon, and today holds board seats at category-defining enterprise companies while maintaining a side career as a self-described 'mediocre guitar player.'
