You can now use x.ai to schedule meetings you don’t have to attend

Some of our power users have shown us that sometimes you want to schedule a meeting that you don’t actually need to attend. Think recruiters, SDRs, or managers who primarily schedule for others. So, we taught Amy + Andrew to set up meetings that don’t include the person who originally requests the meeting. Our shorthand…

4 ways AI is remaking sales

Technology was supposed to save us time and make our lives better. But for most of us, all the tech in our lives has just added to the burden. From the hundreds of emails and thousands of Slack messages we sift through each day, to the nonstop Google calendar scheduling (and rescheduling) ping pong, we’re…

Boosting your sales productivity with an AI assistant

Before I started working at x.ai, I thought Amy and Andrew, our artificial intelligence personal assistants, were freakishly impressive and cool. Since I was hired in September as x.ai’s Enterprise Sales Manager, I’ve become so dependent on Amy that I know I couldn’t do my job nearly as well without her. Any client-facing role, e.g.…

Trump’s victory decreased meeting scheduling by 24%

However you voted, there’s no arguing that the 2016 Presidential election was one of the most polarizing in our history. And the result was one of the least anticipated by media and political cognoscenti in the past half century.

The best way to ask your AI assistant to schedule a meeting for you.

When email first became popular twenty-some odd years ago, the conventions for writing email didn’t exist. Were these short letters? More like half of a phone conversation? A species of notes like the ones you pass to your BFF in class? I expect if I could dredge up those first 100 electronic messages I sent, I’d…

Summertime, and the Livin’ Is…

Here in NYC, a handful of industries still offer summer hours, which means at least every other Friday you get to cut out by midday. We wanted to find out whether the weather affects our customers’ schedules. Are they among the privileged few? Are they showing up later to sneak in a few waves? Are…
