At Inventive, our mission is to build intelligence that helps B2B sales teams win deals. Our first product is a suite of AI agents that help sales teams create winning proposals and RFP responses. About $1.4 trillion worth of projects get allocated within the US alone, and we help vendors win these deals using cutting-edge AI.
Our founding team includes successful repeat founders & researchers from Google DeepMind, Stanford, UC Berkeley, and IIT. We graduated from and have raised a seed round from the Valley’s top investors.
Our customer base and revenues are growing very fast, and we’re looking for a rockstar to join our small but rapidly growing team. If you’re excited to build something from scratch, take extreme ownership, and sit directly in the revenue engine of the company—you’ll feel at home here.
