The product is not meant to replace a CRM. It is meant to keep company research and sales preparation in one place so sales workers do not need to switch between many tools.

Paying for stronger models would make sense only if there is . The main risk is that HubSpot, , Apollo, and other large sales tools are adding AI features all the time.
The open question is whether companies would pay for this as a separate product, or whether it will become just another feature inside existing CRMs.
