AI assistants for inbound sales prospects
Twilio reported that AI assistants serviced 80% of inbound leads from new prospects
Problem
Twilio wanted to respond faster to prospective customers requesting contact with sales. Its traditional sales baseline used a 24-hour response interval.
Approach
Twilio used its own AI assistants for inbound prospect engagement. Its investor presentation reported lead coverage and response speed based on late-2024 operations.
Results
Takeaway
Lead coverage and response speed measured the handling of prospects. Twilio did not report a corresponding sales conversion result.
