Clientell Funding
Clientell Founders (L-R): Saahil Dhaka and Neil Sarkar

Clientell, an early-stage RevOps startup, has made headlines by raising $2.5 million in a seed round of funding led by Blume Ventures. The funding round also saw participation from Chiratae Ventures, Artha Venture Fund, and Silicon Valley based Z5 Capital. 

As per the startup, the freshly raised funds will be used for strengthening the product and expanding the team.

Founded by BITS Pilani alumni Saahil Dhaka and Neil Sarkar, Clientell is a Revenue Operations company on a mission to build the easiest forecasting and pipeline assessment experience. 

Clientell is focused on leveraging AI to significantly improve productivity, reduce costs spent on multiple tools, and increase data quality. The RevOps startup deploys custom forecasting processes and ML models for each customer rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. 

Speaking on the development, Saahil Dhaka, Founder & CEO, said,

“When the world is talking about 10x developers, we’re focused on bringing useful AI products to help 10x salespeople, CRM developers, and GTM leaders.”

Commenting on the development, Sanjay Nath, Blume Ventures, said, 

“Saahil and Neil are passionate founders, obsessed about the problems they are solving for sales teams, and bring complementary strengths across GTM, product, and engineering. We are excited to partner with the Clientell team on their exciting journey by leading their seed fundraise.” 

As per the startup, its key differentiator lies in its deployment agility and intuitive user experience. This is crucial as sales teams often do not fully utilize many tools available to them. Furthermore, its conversational interface allows seamless integration across various platforms such as Google Sheets, email, LinkedIn, Slack, and Teams. This integration ensures users can work within their current workflows without the need to learn a new tool.

With its AI copilot, Clientell has enabled its users, primarily Chief Revenue Officers and Go-to-market leaders, to boost GTM execution and optimize pipeline governance and forecasting. Currently, the RevOps startup is working with initial design partners and early adopters spanning growth-stage SaaS companies and large pharmaceutical companies.

Previously, Clientell had raised $600,000 from Chiratae Ventures’ sonic cohort at the end of 2021, co-led by Artha Venture fund. Since their last round, the team has focused on building the core AI platform and core AI capabilities around combining generative AI with traditional machine learning to provide highly accurate insights to decision-makers in a conversational medium.
