Nooks is an AI platform designed to help sales teams generate pipeline more efficiently by automating time-consuming tasks for SDRs, AEs, sales enablement, and revenue operations. Its AI Dialing Assistant finds phone numbers, skips answering machines, leaves voicemails, does pre-call research, takes notes, and suggests who and when to call. The AI Coaching Assistant transcribes and scores calls, identifies areas for improvement, simulates prospect conversations for training, and offers a Virtual Salesfloor for remote and hybrid teams. The AI Prospecting Assistant researches target accounts, identifies buying signals, builds prospect lists, and drafts outreach emails. Nooks integrates with sales tools such as Outreach, Salesloft, Gong, HubSpot, and Salesforce, and with data providers like Apollo, ZoomInfo, Cognism, and LeadIQ. Customers using Nooks include Seismic, Fivetran, Amplitude, Modern Health, and Verkada; the company raised $43M in a Series B, bringing total funding to $70M. Nooks offers an AI-powered platform for sales teams that prospect over the phone, automating manual call tasks and surfacing strategic insights to boost productivity. Its core suite includes an AI Dialer that skips ringing and answering machines, logs calls, and takes notes; AI Research that personalizes scripts and identifies high-intent leads; Nooks Numbers for finding and correcting prospect phone data; Call Analytics for transcribing and analyzing calls; and a Virtual Salesfloor for live call coaching and collaboration. The company recently released an AI Training feature that lets reps practice selling to a realistic AI buyer persona. Nooks integrates with common sales tools including Outreach, Salesloft, Apollo, Gong, HubSpot and Salesforce, and targets B2B tech companies with an outbound calling motion. The company is led by CEO Dan Lee. Financially, Nooks raised a $22M Series A and has $27M in total funding. Nooks builds a virtual HQ that invites distributed teams into persistent, themed "spaces" (e.g., front desk, beach, design huddle) to encourage spontaneous collaboration. The product forgoes avatar-heavy metaverse design in favor of a simpler UX that uses a video API to display small video orbs and embeds tools like Google Docs, YouTube, Asana and GitHub. Feature highlights include customizable spaces, background music, a whisper feature for side conversations, virtual sales leaderboards and dedicated rooms such as bug‑bashing spaces. The founders say the goal is to reduce Zoom fatigue and create a persistent place for fluid, casual conversation rather than ephemeral meetings. Nooks launched in May 2020, operated in beta for a year, and now reports thousands of weekly active users with teams spending an average of six hours a day on the platform. The company has attracted millions in venture capital and is focused on adapting to hybrid work and combating proximity bias as it scales.
