Aomni Secures $4 Million Seed Funding to Revolutionize Sales Intelligence
Human-Centered AI Innovation
Aomni, an artificial intelligence platform designed to enhance sales teams’ research capabilities on prospective clients, has successfully obtained $4 million in seed investment. The financing round was spearheaded by Decibel, alongside contributions from Sancus Ventures and Ride Home Fund. Aomni distinguishes itself by prioritizing a human-centric focus in an AI landscape where many solutions aim to replace sales roles rather than augment them.
The Visionary Behind Aomni
The company was founded by David Zhang, who has a remarkable backstory that showcases his ambitious aspirations. Zhang’s evolution from a small village in China to launching satellites exemplifies the expansive vision he applies to Aomni. This new venture leverages AI agents designed specifically to redefine how enterprise sales teams engage with potential customers and conduct research.
Streamlining Sales Processes
In an exclusive discussion with VentureBeat, Zhang pointed out that traditional sales representatives devote only about 30-40% of their working hours directly interacting with clients. The remaining 60-70% is consumed by monotonous tasks such as managing CRM systems, prospecting leads, and researching accounts. “Our mission is to eliminate these tedious responsibilities,” he stated.

Real-Time Research Powered by AI Agents
Unlike conventional sales intelligence tools which rely on outdated databases or generic firmographic details, Aomni employs advanced AI agents that perform live internet research across multiple sources simultaneously. When examining potential leads, their system opens various web browsers concurrently to investigate recent corporate announcements, social media interactions, product introductions, and other public data points.
Zhang explained that current solutions offer limited views primarily based on static information: “They’re effective for broad inquiries like finding firms with substantial funding or employee counts but lack depth.” Through active agenda-based research using real-time browsing techniques allows users the ability to pose very specific queries regarding potential clients’ needs.
Prominent technology corporations such as Nvidia and AMD are among those already leveraging Aomni’s capabilities as they navigate the fast-paced dynamics of the AI chip sector. Reports suggest increases in closing rates up to 40% attributed directly from having access to more tailored customer conversations facilitated through this innovative tool.
