AI sales assistant
An AI sales assistant you run from your dashboard or WhatsApp
AI sales assistant that sends you a morning brief, waits for YES to send and pauses with one message. It finds leads, emails and books meetings for you.
An AI sales assistant is software that takes the routine work of finding clients off your plate and checks in with you, the way a good assistant would. Outbind is an AI sales assistant built on the autonomous client engine: Obi, its AI, works your market each day and keeps you informed from the web dashboard, from WhatsApp, or both.
The difference from a plain tool is the conversation. You do not have to log in to see what happened. A morning brief tells you, and a one-word reply tells Obi what to do next.
What is an AI sales assistant?
An AI sales assistant is an AI that does sales tasks for you and talks to you about them. Some only draft emails inside your mail app. Others, like Outbind, do the full job: find the people, research them, write, send from your own inbox, follow up and handle replies.
What makes it an assistant rather than a black box is that it keeps you in the loop on your terms. You decide how close that loop is. You can OK the first leads once and let Autopilot add good fits by itself, or choose to review every lead.
What does an AI sales assistant do for you each morning?
Each morning, Obi searches your market, scores every account on fit, persona and intent, and lines up new leads. If you use WhatsApp, it sends you a short morning brief with what it found and what is waiting for you.
From there, the rest of the day runs without you. Emails go from your own inbox between 8am and 8pm in each recipient's time zone, follow-ups stop the moment someone replies, and every reply is sorted in the Unibox.
Can you run an AI sales assistant from WhatsApp?
Yes, with Outbind you can. WhatsApp is optional and only connects you and Outbind. Your contacts are never messaged there.
| What you want | On WhatsApp | On the web dashboard |
|---|---|---|
| See what happened overnight | Read the morning brief | Open the dashboard and Unibox |
| Approve sending | Reply YES to send | OK leads and switch Autopilot on |
| Give Obi an instruction | Send it a message | Edit your ICP, personas or Flows |
| Stop everything at once | Send one message to pause all sending | Use the one-message pause on WhatsApp |
| Work the replies | Get the update | Answer in the Unibox |
You can use both: WhatsApp on the move, the dashboard when you sit down to answer replies.
AI sales assistant vs AI SDR: what is the difference?
The work is the same; the relationship is different. An AI SDR is described by the job it replaces. An AI sales assistant is described by how it works with you: it reports, asks and takes instructions.
Outbind is both. If you think of it as a rep, it runs your pipeline. If you think of it as an assistant, it is the one that messages you at breakfast with today's leads and waits for your YES.
What does an AI sales assistant hand back to you?
A good assistant knows what not to decide. Obi answers people who want to talk with your booking link, but pricing questions, objections and anything unclear come to you.
It also keeps the pipeline tidy so you see what needs you. Deals move stage when a reply comes in. Quiet, stalled and unanswered deals are flagged. On Team plans, the shared Unibox lets you assign replies to a teammate, and Slack alerts keep the team in the picture.
How much does an AI sales assistant cost?
Outbind costs $49 a month on Pro, $99 on Pro Plus, $199 on Team and $399 on Team Scale, billed monthly. Yearly billing gives 2 months free.
Credits pay for finding and checking data. Writing, sending and follow-ups never use credits. See pricing for what each plan includes.
How does Outbind work as an AI sales assistant?
Outbind works as an AI sales assistant you set up once and then talk to. Add your website and Obi proposes your ICP and personas. Connect your own mailboxes and a LinkedIn account, OK the first leads, and connect WhatsApp if you want the morning brief.
After that, your job is short: read the brief, reply YES, and take the meetings. For a fuller look at the engine underneath, see product or the AI sales agent page.
