Go-to-market AI in 2026
Your LinkedIn feed is full of it. Another "AI GTM playbook" from someone who's never carried a bag. Another hot take about AI BDRs from a guy who sells an AI BDR. Another thread that starts with "Most founders get this wrong" and ends with a link to a $497 course.
It's exhausting. So we’re doing something about it.
We’re hosting a happy hour for operators in the trenches to share practical tips that people can take away to use AI to improve how they sell and market - without needing to buy a new product or spend a weekend figuring out how to use Claude code.
It’ll include networking, and a panel discussion with leaders from some of the fastest growing companies in AI go-to-market tech to share what they’re seeing from their fastest growing customers.
This isn't a vendor showcase in disguise. We're not doing product demos or treating attendees as "leads." The goal is simple: you walk away better at your job than when you came in, and with new connections you can keep learning from.
