Predictive intelligence for social commerce, $450k ARR
Hotbox is Clay for social commerce. Your next customers are already in your likes, comments, and DMs. Hotbox identifies them, matches them to your ICP through deep-level enrichment, and agentically converts your pipeline to expand your untapped revenue potential. Hotbox, pre-launch, has $350k ARR and $4M in pipeline in just 2 weeks of sales. Founded by Harpriya (CEO). She's had two exits and sold her last company to Salesforce, built the LinkedIn ranking algorithm, and is a published NeurIPS author.
Hotbox is an AI-powered tool that scans Instagram DMs, enriches and ranks leads, and helps convert conversations into opportunities. It prioritizes high-intent leads and can auto-reply or hand off to humans to drive revenue.
Hotbox automatically scans your Instagram Direct Messages, enriches each lead with background information, ranks conversations by lead quality, and drafts next-step responses. It can automatically respond in your voice or escalate to a human when needed, and it surfaces the hottest threads first so you can engage at the right moment and convert them into revenue.
Who it’s for: Businesses and creators relying on Instagram DMs for lead generation and sales, seeking AI-assisted lead enrichment, prioritization, and automated/nudged follow-ups to close deals.

I've grown 3 companies from 0 to millions in ARR by building viral playbooks, with 2 exits. The last one was acquired by Salesforce. As a machine learning engineer, I've built the LinkedIn ranking algorithm, been published in NeurIPS, and built the deep reinforcement learning algorithm used to fine tune the particle beam for Canada's National Particle Accelerator.
