I Met a Guy in a Bar and Now I'm a Believer in AI

Posted by Trish Bertuzzi on Wed, Feb 01, 2017

At Dreamforce last October, a few colleagues and I were sitting at a hotel bar when a gentleman took an empty seat next to us. After a few minutes, he turned to me and asked, “Are you Trish Bertuzzi from the internet?” I replied that I was.

We started to chat and he shared that he had founded a tech company in San Francisco. My first thought was "yup, you and about a million other people." But the more he shared his vision, the more interested I became.

That “guy” was Roy Raanani, CEO and Founder of Chorus.ai.

We exchanged business cards and agreed to have a call a few weeks after Dreamforce. (Roy smartly closed on scheduling the meeting there and then.) On that initial call and over the next few months, I got to know Roy, his vision, and his team. The more I learned, the more I knew I wanted to be part of their future.

Why do free trials work for some SaaS companies and not for others?
