Company mission

Helping SaaS Startups book qualification meetings with out debut AI employee, Nezumi.

Our take

Sales teams today are downing in repetitive tasks, and for small teams or fast growing startups, this process often eats up a lot of valuable time and energy that could be better spent closing deals. And hiring and training SDRs (Sales Development Reps) is expensive, and even then, getting consistent results can be tough.

So, in steps Shoden with its clever little AI assistant, Nezumi, that acts like the dream SDR. It takes care of everything, and with tools like domain reputation monitoring and seamless integrations, it's designed to be both smart and safe, so sales teams can scale without burning out.

The idea of a fully-automated, always-on SDR is both fascinating and a little wild. Shoden is tackling a real problem with a sharp solutions, and while AI replacing certain roles might raise some eyebrows, the productivity boost it offers is really hard to ignore.
