Trellus

Trellus provides real-time sales coaching for Sales Development Representatives (SDRs), delivering targeted prompts directly to salespeople during their conversations with prospects. These prompts are contextually triggered by the unfolding dialogue, aiming to improve rep performance and accelerate quota attainment. By offering timely suggestions, Trellus guides reps toward empathetic listening and effective discovery techniques. Examples of prompts include advising the rep to 'pause' if they are dominating the conversation, suggesting they 'set next steps' when concluding a call without them, or prompting them to 'ask current state' when facing objections. Founded by former MIT researchers and backed by Y Combinator, Trellus empowers sales teams to optimize their interactions and drive better results.
