Actions on FirstQuadrant
May 2024
Human-in-the-loop AI inbox where sales teams review, approve, and refine AI-generated outreach actions
In 2023, I co-founded FirstQuadrant with Carlo Badini. FirstQuadrant is an all-in-one AI sales platform that turns B2B outbound sales into a fully scalable system, from finding and qualifying prospects to writing personalized email sequences to autonomously managing replies.
We raised funding from Y Combinator (S21) and grew to serve fast-growing startups like Stacker, Hypercontext, Athina, Heroic Labs, Cofactr, Metoro, Caribou, and CoCEO. The platform shipped weekly updates every Monday.
As co-founder and CTO/CPO, I was responsible for the entire product along with my cofounder, building the platform and leading the design and development as we grew. I designed the human-in-the-loop architecture that let users gradually increase AI autonomy, from manual approval to full autopilot, building trust incrementally.
In October 2025, the FirstQuadrant platform was sunset after we exited the company to an AI decacorn.
