We've been analyzing demo funnels across B2B SaaS companies, and the pattern is consistent: the "Book a demo" button creates a 5 9 day gap between peak buyer intent and first product contact.
By the time the call happens, half the excitement is gone. No-show rates climb. Reps spend the first 15 minutes on basics the prospect would've preferred to explore alone.
The fix isn't a better calendar tool. It's removing the wait entirely.
We built Naoma to replace that gap with an instant AI demo live, conversational, running in the browser 24/7. The prospect gets a real product walkthrough the moment they click. We route qualified leads straight to sales.
In early pilots, we're seeing 6 20% visitor-to-demo conversion, which for most inbound funnels is a meaningful jump from the default.

We applied for the YC S26 batch a while back — and seeing @aaronoleary thread made us even more excited about the opportunity.
Naoma is an AI video agent that replaces the "Book a Demo" wait with an instant, live product demo on your website. Buyer hits peak intent, gets a real walkthrough on the spot, gets qualified and routed — no scheduling, no rep required.
Pre-seed backed by Ultra VC, Sparkle Ventures and angels. Early pilots with UXPressia, Yesim, Mellow and others. Seeing 10–20% visitor-to-demo conversion, with up to 30% moving to next steps.
Would be an incredible opportunity for us at this stage. Fingers crossed.
🤞 #YCApplication

Hey hunters, Dima here, co-founder of Naoma.
The idea came from a decision I made at PandaDoc that always bothered me.
We pushed companies under 50 employees to self-serve - not because they weren't good customers, but because a human sales motion was too expensive to justify at that ACV. They wanted to talk to someone. We just couldn't afford to talk back.
Self-serve existed. But conversion was lower, churn was higher, and nobody was solving the gap.
That's Naoma. An AI agent that runs a real demo conversation the moment a visitor clicks, no scheduling, no waiting. The human-led demo experience available to everyone.
Excited to finally share it.
Would love your feedback.
