Real-time sales coach for SDRs
Trellus delivers simple coaching prompts to your salespeople in real time as they speak to prospects. Prompts are delivered in response to what is happening in a conversation. The goal of these prompts is to get more reps achieving quota and to reduce the time it takes to start attaining quota. Prompts are action-oriented steps toward empathetic listening and effective discovery. Examples include 'pause' (when talking too much), 'set next steps' (when wrapping up a call without them), and 'ask current state' (when encountering objections). Trellus is backed by Y Combinator and founded by former MIT researchers.
Trellus provides an AI-powered assistant and parallel dialer designed to work inside major sales platforms (Salesloft, Outreach, Hubspot, Orum) to enhance dialing, real-time coaching, and LinkedIn workflow. It offers AI bots for inbound handling, call analytics, and live coaching to improve sales conversations and performance metrics.
The product embeds a parallel dialer directly within a salesperson's existing SEP to dial up to five parallel lines, automate voice drops, and integrate LinkedIn for outreach. It includes AI voice agents for practice and inbound handling, real-time coaching during calls, and post-call QA. Features cover call analytics to score and track performance, a consolidated LinkedIn Inbox view, keyboard shortcuts and snippets for faster messaging, and a sales floor workspace for live call blitzes and collaboration. It also offers number health checks and rotation to improve connection rates and a voice agent framework to automate routine telephony tasks such as routing, data collection, and appointment setting.
Who it’s for: Sales teams and SDRs using Salesloft, Outreach, Hubspot, or Orum seeking real-time coaching, higher call output, and streamlined LinkedIn messaging.
