Zig.ai today brings an AI agent team to its fully autonomous sales platform, adding automated lead generation, research and outreach to a system built to run every stage of a rep's sales motion. Where reps once managed separate tools for every step of prospecting, Zig.ai gives every account executive their own AI assistants that handle the actions autonomously. Reps describe the target. The agents handle the rest. From finding prospects and qualifying leads to researching companies, the agents complete in minutes what once took reps two to four hours.

Quick Intel

  • Zig.ai adds automated lead generation, research, and outreach AI agents to autonomous sales platform.

  • Agents cross-verify contact and company data across public and private datasets for validated emails and phone numbers.

  • Lookalike account intelligence analyzes closed deals to surface similar companies with drafted outreach sequences.

  • Zigscribe AI employee turns sales meetings into execution.

  • Reps describe target; agents handle prospecting, qualification, and research in minutes vs. 2-4 hours manually.

  • Command from desktop, mobile, voice, text, Slack, email, or phone call.

AI Executive Assistants for Every Account Executive

"Sales reps have always needed their own employees that could handle the majority of their workload," says Steve Ancheta, founder and CEO of Zig.ai. "We built Zig.ai to give every account executive their own team of AI executive assistants, so reps only have to worry about building relationships and attending customer calls."

Unlike traditional lead generation platforms that pull from a single data source, Zig.ai cross-verifies contact and company data across both public and private datasets, surfacing verified emails, phone numbers and contact details that have been validated across multiple providers.

Lookalike Account Intelligence

The launch also introduces lookalike account intelligence. When a sales rep closes a deal, Zig.ai's agents analyze the patterns within that closed deal and surface a list of similar companies, complete with a drafted outreach sequence ready for the rep to review and trigger.

"Reps don't need another tool," says Lavish Mantri, co-founder and head of engineering at Zig.ai. "They need their best deals to teach the system. Every close sharpens who we go after, what we say, when we send. Reps focus on winning the deal. The agents make closing a repeatable motion."

The new feature is the latest addition to Zig.ai's growing AI agent team, which previously launched Zigscribe, an AI employee that turns sales meetings into execution.

About Zig.ai

Zig.ai gives every sales rep their own team of AI Executive Assistants. Agents that find the leads, prepare every meeting, run the follow-through, update the CRM, and surface the next set of deals that look like the ones just closed. Commanded from desktop, mobile, voice, text, Slack, email, or a phone call, Zig.ai replaces the sales tech stack with a single team that grows smarter with every deal. Zig.ai is headquartered in San Francisco.
