AI Employees for Wholesalers & Distributors
Seals is a suite of AI Employees for Wholesalers & Distributors. Instead of relying on humans to quote, take orders, collect payments, place purchase orders and enter data into ERPs. We build AI Employees that do these manual repetitive tasks for the 700k wholesalers in the US. We’re a team of three Computer Science majors, and Fernando launched and grew AT&T in Mexico to $120M ARR. Previously, we all worked together at our last YC-backed startup, building it to over $6M in revenue. It was there that we placed thousands of purchase orders with wholesalers. We realized that almost every physical product comes from B2B sales in the supply chain. However, it turns out that most of these operations are still done manually through phone and email, involving tasks like quoting, taking orders, collecting payments, entering data into ERPs, and providing support. By automating these tasks with AI agents in a human-like manner, we are creating a massive opportunity to convert $100B of payroll expenses into software spending.
Co-founder & CEO of Seals AI (S24) AI Employees for Wholesalers & Distributors I am a second-time founder who built a another YC-backed (W20) grocery delivery startup and grew it to $6.3M in revenue and 30K customers. I designed all the software, including Driver, Consumer, and Warehouse Apps. I was in founder mode acquiring customers, operating warehouses, launching cities, recruiting engineers, and fundraising. I personally delivered 1,000 orders to talk to users and build the product.
Computer Science graduate. I am the founder & CTO of several venture-backed startups, including enterprise-grade software products. I have been writing code for the past 18 years. Before joining Seals, I led engineering at a YC-backed startup, scaling the software to 30,000 customers.
Computer Science graduate. I have been coding since I was 12 years old. At my first company, I built an app that reached 500,000 users by myself. I am a second-time YC-backed founder who built and scaled four complex software apps, think of the DoorDash stack.
I love technology because it is the bicycle of the mind. During my life, I have had the opportunity to: 1. Get a Computer Science degree and make the first internet connection in LATAM in 1989. 2. Launch AT&T in Mexico and grow it from $0 to $120M ARR as Marketing-Sales Director. 3. Deliver 300K grocery orders to 30k customers at Orchata a YC-backed (W20) startup.
