I'm delighted to bring you our very first podcast interview with Sam Oliver, Founder of OpenFi, the team behind the fantastic Conversational AI product, SalesTalk AI.
This episode builds on the interview I did with Sam a few weeks ago on Conversational AI News. I had such great feedback that I decided to ask him back for today's show.
I ask Sam to give us an overview of OpenFi, tell us more about how SalesTalk AI works.
I also asked him for his observations on what he's seeing in the marketplace, particularly from the point of view of the Financial Services sector clients they're working with right now.
Finally I asked him who he admires in the market -- and his quick-as-a-flash answer: Chatbase. Check them out!
