For founders

# For founders who still answer inbound themselves

Your prospect has two or three competitors open in parallel tabs right now. Alphie pings you in Slack with the company and the pages it’s reading, and one click puts you, the founder, in the chat while they’re still on the page. Nobody else in those tabs can do that.

Hey! I saw you’re comparing us with Alloy — we’ve helped a few teams at your scale make that switch.

The alert comes to Slack and you answer from Slack. Danylo Borodchuk, co-founder of Lopus AI (YC W25): “I haven’t even opened the dashboard in months.”

## When you’re in a meeting, or asleep

[The AI answers](https://meetalphie.com/ai-chat) from your knowledge base, and the visitor can book straight into your Google Calendar. If they leave without booking, Alphie [emails the people in your buyer roles](https://meetalphie.com/warm-outbound) at that company.

## Setup

One script tag, connect Slack, pick an ICP from the presets. Most founders are live inside an hour.

## What it costs

Seed is $249 a month for up to 250 identified companies. On any plan the first 100 identified companies are free: card at signup, billing starts at company 101. There’s no minimum traffic.

## Why we built it

In 2020, at my previous company, YouTeam (YC W18, acquired by Toptal), we tried to identify every website visitor and engage them on the spot. Pre-AI, that meant Intercom, Zapier and HubSpot taped together, plus a brutal amount of manual grind. I lost 16 pounds. One of our two sales reps quit.

But every single qualified visitor we caught in the act became a customer.
