Aomni founder David Zhang’s entrepreneurial story is impressive. He set out from a small village and eventually founded a company dedicated to satellite launches, demonstrating his extraordinary entrepreneurial spirit. Today, he leads Aomni to revolutionize the way sales teams work through AI technology.
In an interview, Zhang pointed out that traditional salespeople usually spend only 30-40% of their time directly communicating with customers, while most of the time is occupied by tedious knowledge work, such as filling out CRM systems, finding potential customers, and conducting account research. Aomni’s goal is to use AI technology to help salespeople free themselves from these tedious tasks and focus on interacting with customers.
Unlike traditional sales intelligence platforms, Aomni's AI agents are able to conduct network research in real time and obtain information from multiple data sources. When studying potential customers, the system can launch multiple Chrome browsers to actively browse public information such as company announcements, social media updates, product releases, etc., thereby providing salespeople with a more comprehensive customer background.
Zhang stressed that most existing sales research products rely on static databases, and while suitable for companies that raise more than $10 million in financing or have 200 employees, it seems too broad when dealing with specific needs. Aomni's real-time research capabilities can answer more detailed questions and help salespeople better understand customer needs.
Currently, Aomni has attracted several large technology companies including Nvidia and AMD. These companies have gained significant advantages in the rapidly growing AI chip market by using Aomni's technology. Data shows that after using Aomni, the sales team's customer conversion rate has increased by as much as 40%, and customer interaction has become more accurate and effective.
Decibel partner Jessica Leao said she was deeply attracted by Aomni’s people-oriented vision. Among the many automation-centric tools on the market, Aomni demonstrates a unique combination of both deep technical expertise and forward-looking vision.
Aomni's technology is based on the latest advances in large language models and AI agents. Zhang specifically notes that Aomni’s key innovation lies in its coordination layer, not the underlying model. The company combines the technologies of multiple AI providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic and AI21Labs to create an efficient and flexible sales research platform.
Looking ahead, Zhang plans to further enhance Aomni’s multimodal capabilities, allowing sales teams to interact with AI through voice and imagery. At the same time, Aomni will continue to work to improve the performance of AI models and reduce computing costs, striving to enable every salesperson to become a top performer.
