Nooks is the Agent Workspace for intelligent outbound. We pair human judgment with AI execution so reps spend less time on busywork and more time building real relationships that turn into pipeline. Nooks brings signals, account history, and next-best actions into one multi-channel system for AI sequencing so outbound stays relevant as you scale. Over 100 teams have switched from legacy sequencing tools to Nooks, more than doubling email-sourced pipeline, cutting research time by 90%, and consolidating multiple vendors into one platform. Over 1200 customers rely on Nooks, including sophisticated sales organizations at HubSpot, Deel, ZoomInfo, and Rippling.

Persona helps businesses manage KYC/AML/KYB programs, fight fraud, and build trust by automating any identity-related use case with our flexible identity infrastructure. For example, we help Coursera verify learners’ identities before delivering course credentials and Brex comply with strict international KYC/AML regulations. Beyond securely collecting and verifying user information such as PII, government IDs, and selfies, our platform also provides flexible case review and orchestration tools to help businesses streamline and automate all their identity operations — from setting custom rules to ingesting third-party data and triggering external actions. In short, Persona handles the complexities of securely collecting, verifying, and managing sensitive personal information, so you can stay focused on building your product.
