Company mission
To revolutionize sales training with AI.
Our take
In order for sales teams to improve their approach, and hence their results, they need a way to effectively train themselves to run more efficient and engaging sales calls. But realistic sales calls are hard to replicate, leaving many teams without a space to practice their technique.
This is where Hyperbound comes in, supplying roleplays designed to mimic real-life sales and post-sales calls. Its platform leverages conversational AI to replicate what it's like to talk to a buyer. It also provides "call scoring" so that sales teams have feedback into their performance, and personalised coaching for each user to improve.
Its a valuable offering for any business looking to supercharge its sales efforts, and has already been employed by Nivoda, Seamless.AI, GetAccept and many more. Having secured early backing, Hyperbound has a bright future ahead of it as it continues to develop into the future.

Company values
- Challenge Each Other & Stay Accountable - Feedback is direct and constructive - no egos, no defensiveness. We hold ourselves and each other to high standards, pushing for the best outcomes. Mistakes happen, but we take ownership, learn, and move forward
- Be Customer-Driven, Always - Every decision starts with customer impact. Opinions matter, but data and customer feedback matter more. If you challenge something, bring proof and back it up with facts
- Take Full Ownership - No task is beneath anyone - if it needs to be done, do it. We don’t wait for permission; we figure things out, take action, and solve problems before they become blockers
- Make Work Energizing - We push each other to do great work and get excited about what we’re building. Work shouldn’t feel like a grind, and everyone plays a role in shaping a culture where people enjoy showing up every day
- Move Fast & Stay Open-Minded - We adapt quickly and learn as we go. If something isn’t working, we change it. Transparency applies to everything - work, decisions, and personal growth
- Collaboration Over Hierarchy - There are no silos or gatekeeping - if you need time with someone, ask. The best ideas win, not titles or tenure. We share knowledge, help each other grow, and focus on collective success
