## Headline

Founder & CEO @ COUNT AI \| Building Deep Tech AI Products

## About

As Founder & CEO of COUNT AI, I build AI systems that prevent revenue leaks caused by forgotten sales conversations and poor follow\-ups\. Our flagship product, LeadPulze, is built for event\-driven and in\-person B2B sales — exhibitions, conferences, demos, and field meetings — where conversations are rich, but follow\-ups often lose context\. LeadPulze captures high\-signal sales talks naturally using an audio\-first, one\-tap workflow \(3–5× faster than typing\)\. AI handles transcription, structuring key signals \(intent, objections, timelines\), and triggering follow\-up actions — without forms or CRM friction\. Offline\-first, mobile\-friendly, and CRM\-agnostic, LeadPulze preserves context so sales teams deliver sharper follow\-ups and close more in long\-cycle, high\-value sales such as manufacturing, capital equipment, and enterprise SaaS\. At COUNT AI, we’ve built AI systems that augment quality and decision\-making in tough, real\-world environments — where noise is high, conditions are imperfect, and failure is costly\. LeadPulze applies the same discipline to sales: capturing the right signal at the moment it matters, so nothing critical is lost\. If you lead B2B sales and your event follow\-ups feel generic, let’s connect\.
