Why sales teams choose Sam

It’s not just about note-taking. It’s everything else Sam delivers that we haven’t seen from bigger names like Gong or Otter.

What surprised me the most about this is that my team fought for HeySam. It was the one tool that had the strongest sentiment and adoption across the entire team.

Instead of hiring more people right away, we can multiply my impact by having an AI assistant (Sam) join the calls and handle technical questions in real time.

Sam’s Slack integration was the aha moment. I don't even have to go into the platform.  I can stay where I'm operating with my team, and get answers from Sam

Given the ability to solve the crux of our original problem—scaling SEs—while also delivering an AI‑first call intelligence tool, it was a clear decision to explore HeySam

Sam felt like an AI-native tool versus legacy tools that bolted on AI, and it fits right into Slack where we live
