Introducing Katalyst - the Agent that runs pipeline on Salesforce.
Hey everyone,
We just launched Katalyst for sales teams on Salesforce.
Simple idea: reps don't hate selling, they hate the hours they lose every week feeding the CRM. Logging calls, fixing stages and close dates, writing next steps, reconstructing what happened on a deal from three weeks ago. The CRM they "quietly hate."
Most tools just made data entry slightly less painful. It's still the rep doing the work.
Katalyst reads the calls, emails, and calendar and keeps the opportunity current on its own. Stages, next steps, close dates, contacts. Plus a hygiene score so you can see which deals are actually clean and which are quietly rotting.
We're not trying to be a full-auto AI SDR that spams people while you sleep.
It's the layer underneath, it does the hygiene work so reps get their week back for the part only humans can do.
Would love feedback from AEs, sales leaders, RevOps, and anyone who's rage-quit their CRM on a Friday.

This is a refreshing take. Feels like a lot of AI sales tools are focused on generating more outreach, while the less glamorous operational work is still left to reps. The CRM hygiene score is the feature that caught my eye—would love to see how teams end up using that in practice.

@divija_diwan Appreciate this. Everyone's racing to automate the outreach while the operational grind stays manual, and that gap is exactly what bugged us. On seeing it in practice, the pattern I'm most excited about is managers running reviews straight off the hygiene score, and reps clearing their lowest-hygiene deals first instead of guessing what needs attention. If you're open to it, I'd love to show you how it plays out for a team.
This framing really resonates: reps don’t hate selling, they hate feeding the CRM.
What I like here is that Katalyst isn’t trying to be a flashy “AI SDR” that replaces the human part of sales. It’s going after the quieter but very real operational drag — keeping opportunities, next steps, close dates, contacts, and deal context clean without making reps do all the admin work manually.
I’m especially interested in the hygiene score idea. A lot of pipeline reviews become debates about whether the data is even current before you can talk about the actual deal. If Katalyst can make pipeline cleanliness visible and actionable, that feels valuable for both reps and managers.

@kryptonite_wei You nailed the exact moment we built this for. So much of every pipeline review gets spent arguing about whether the data is even current before anyone can talk about the actual deal. That's dead time for reps and managers both. The hygiene score is there to take that debate off the table, so you walk in trusting the pipeline reflects reality and spend the meeting on the deal itself. Appreciate you engaging with it this closely.
