The San Francisco-based B2B startup, founded in 2023 by former Amazon executives Kintan Brahmbhatt and Jean-Baptiste Caput, positions itself as an AI demo engineer.
The business-to-business (B2B) company operates as an AI demo engineer, which works across sectors such as sales and marketing, healthcare tech, and financial services, among others. The AI-driven personalisation will automate and create product demos for companies based on their requirements. The company believes that their AI demo engineer would reduce dependency on traditional manual product demos.
The company says it will use the capital to build new AI agents and scale its operations. “We’re building new AI agents for inbound leads and outbound calls, while investing in R&D to customise experiences based on each client’s needs,” Brahmbhatt, Olto’s CEO, told ET. He previously co-founded Amazon Music and led its product team.
Olto currently serves clients in the US, UK, and Canada and plans to expand into India.
“AI is upending traditional B2B sales,” said Abhishek Sharma, managing director at Nexus Venture Partners. “Sales teams spend countless hours on manual demo preparation, only to deliver generic experiences that don’t resonate with prospects. Olto’s AI-first approach eliminates this time drain and creates genuinely targeted experiences that lead to faster sales cycles.”
