Qualified has announced substantial customer momentum as leading organizations accelerate their transition to full-funnel agentic marketing powered by Piper, the leading AI SDR Agent. With buyers demanding instant, always-on engagement, companies face increasing pressure to respond rapidly and capture every meaningful interaction without gaps.

To address this evolution, enterprises are moving beyond traditional marketing automation tools toward agentic marketing platforms capable of autonomously handling the entire funnel—from initial engagement to revenue outcomes—through intelligent, autonomous AI-driven processes.

Surge in Customer Adoption Signals Market Shift

Qualified's growth reflects broad market demand for modern pipeline automation solutions. New additions to the customer base—Dun & Bradstreet, Epson, and Sprout Social—highlight adoption across diverse industries seeking scalable AI automation for inbound pipelines.

Existing customers, including Blackbaud and LogicMonitor, have expanded their use of Qualified's platform, demonstrating sustained value in driving B2B pipeline efficiency and revenue impact through agentic capabilities.

Transforming the Inbound Funnel with Autonomous AI

The traditional marketing funnel faces significant challenges: overwhelming lead volumes, inconsistent follow-up, and frequent missed opportunities amid rising buyer expectations and resource constraints.

Piper addresses these issues by serving as a single intelligent agent that autonomously manages every funnel stage. From real-time website visitor engagement to personalized email nurturing and conversion advancement, Piper replaces rule-based legacy marketing automation with dynamic, autonomous decision-making that qualifies and progresses buyers efficiently.

“After adopting Piper the AI SDR Agent, we’ve increased meetings booked by 68% and conversations by 118%,” said Troy O’Bryan, Senior Vice President, Global Growth Marketing, Blackbaud. “Piper allows us to work around the clock engaging potential buyers and sets up our team to have more meetings and impactful human-to-human conversations.”

Continuous Innovation Powers Agentic Capabilities

Qualified's ongoing product advancements are accelerating this transition. The introduction of PiperX brings multi-stage autonomy, multi-agent infrastructure, and support for multi-modal interactions across text, voice, and video channels.

These innovations enable Piper to independently determine optimal next actions, eliminating the need for marketers to manage fragmented tools or manual processes. The result is a unified platform that accelerates pipeline generation, reduces operational friction, and improves conversion rates at scale.

Qualified remains committed to advancing agentic marketing, with further enhancements planned to expand outreach reach and minimize buyer friction.

Leading the Agentic Marketing Era

As adoption of AI SDR agents grows for end-to-end funnel management, Piper has established itself as the core platform enabling this paradigm shift. Enterprises are not merely testing AI—they are fundamentally redesigning go-to-market strategies around agentic principles.

“Qualified is setting the standard for AI SDR agents in the market,” says Maura Rivera, CMO of Qualified. “Customers aren’t just experimenting with AI; they’re rebuilding their go-to-market motions around agentic marketing, and Piper is at the center of that shift.”

This momentum positions Qualified at the forefront of transforming B2B marketing efficiency and pipeline performance through autonomous, intelligent automation.
