Our take
Sales operation is notoriously every organisation’s noisiest department, and one that has seen relatively little innovation thus far. There has been a widening gap in efficiency and optimization for many of the functions that make up sales operations. Forma.ai, a compensation-focused AI software company, provides its customers with an avenue to improve general sales performance by enabling them to enhance sales performance activities through automation.
The company’s current niche focus is contrary to the wide-net approach that major industry players like Salesforce have taken, but Forma.ai is already proving to be a much needed product offering. It promises customers endless sales improvement solutions and implementation strategies - all using AI and end-to-end automation - and thus has secured several large clients such as TrustPilot, Autodesk, Redis, and Stryker.
The company has achieved impressive revenue growth amid rapid enterprise adoption of its platform, and is now focused on expanding its headcount, as well as accelerate product development and go-to-market initiatives to meet growing demand for its products.
