Story

Zoom signed to acquire the AI-native GTM platform that turns fragmented buyer signals into person-level intelligence and activates it through agents (customers include Atlassian, Anthropic, Okta, Snowflake). A communications incumbent buying its way into the sales-intelligence layer is pressure on every point solution in signal-based selling. The meeting tool wants to be the whole revenue stack.
