About Us
At Artisan, we’re building real AI employees - not copilots, not assistants, but autonomous teammates.
Our first, Ava, is an AI BDR. She finds and researches leads, writes emails in customers’ tone of voice, runs outbound sequences, self-optimizes, and manages email deliverability infrastructure. She learns, adapts, and improves over time - just like a human would.
Human team members use Artisan as their primary working platform, replacing a sprawling stack of sales tools, and have Artisans working alongside them.
We went through Y Combinator (W24) and have raised $35M+ from top investors. We’re at $6M+ ARR, with hundreds of customers including Remote, Quora, and SumUp.
We’re currently working on Ava 2.0, pushing the boundaries of what an AI employee can do. And we're hiring.
About The Role
