Hyperbound Raises USD 15 Million to Expand AI Sales Training Platform

Hyperbound secured USD 15 million in new funding led by Peak XV Partners, with participation from Y Combinator, Snowflake Ventures, Roble Ventures, and Fellows Fund. This brings total funding to USD 18.3 million since launch.

For sales leaders, this signals a clear shift: training is moving from static playbooks to live, AI-driven practice that mirrors real customer conversations. Faster ramp, tighter feedback loops, and fewer blind spots.

What the Platform Does

  • AI roleplay for reps to practice live customer scenarios, including multiparty conversations.
  • Call scoring with customized scorecards for consistent coaching.
  • Support for 25+ languages to enable global teams.
  • Built to reduce manual call analysis so managers can coach where it matters.

Who's Behind It

Founded in January 2024 by Sriharsha Guduguntla (conversational AI at Salesforce) and Atul Raghunathan (machine learning at Meta). Their focus: make sales practice continuous, measurable, and easy to roll out across teams.

Traction That Matters

  • More than USD 1 million in new ARR in two consecutive months.
  • Year-end growth targets hit ahead of schedule.
  • Used across SaaS, finance, logistics, and staffing.
  • Customers include Autodesk, Monday.com, Bloomberg, G2, Vanta, Airwallex, and Hub International.

Why Sales Leaders Should Care

  • Turn coaching into a weekly habit with AI roleplays that mirror objections and procurement roadblocks.
  • Standardize feedback using scorecards so every rep knows what "good" looks like.
  • Shorten ramp time for new hires with structured scenarios instead of ad-hoc shadowing.
  • Prep cross-functional deals using multiparty simulations before the real call.

What's Next for Hyperbound

The company plans to expand product capabilities, scale global support, and push deeper into enterprise rollouts. The platform is available for trial as they broaden reach across sales and customer operations.

Quick Action for Your Team

  • Pick three high-impact scenarios (discovery, pricing, security review) and run weekly AI roleplays.
  • Adopt a single scorecard for call reviews to make coaching consistent.
  • Use language support to align messaging across regions and partner teams.
