Company profile
researched Aug 2026Floworks builds a suite of "AI employees" intended to run business functions, principally sales, autonomously. Its flagship product is Alisha, an AI SDR that carries out the outbound sales development workflow end to end: defining an ideal customer profile, building prospect lists, researching each prospect across web sources, writing personalized emails, following up and engaging, and coordinating to book sales calls. Additional named agents include Jesse, an internet research/prospecting agent that searches the web and a database of more than 700 million contacts using intent data and filters; Linda, which automates LinkedIn research, connection requests, personalized messaging and meeting booking; Ashley, an AI executive assistant for scheduling, email and user-taught workflows; and Romona, an AI revenue operations manager that updates CRM records, notes, next steps and MEDDIC fields after calls and produces periodic CRM reporting. The company's site also lists a voice-calling agent as "coming soon" and describes five specialized agents in total.
The products are built on ThorV2, a proprietary function-calling architecture the company describes in a research white paper authored by co-founder Sudipta Biswas and Shival Gupta. Alisha v2, launched through Y Combinator, added lead research connected to 10+ sales databases and intent signals across 20+ sources, simultaneous email and LinkedIn sequencing, automated objection handling grounded in customer-supplied documents (PDF, websites, CSV, plain text, docs), autonomous calendar coordination and meeting scheduling, and two-way CRM sync that can trigger new campaigns based on deal progression.
The company states compliance with SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, ISO 27001 and HIPAA, and names YC, SenseAI and Beyond Capital among its investors.
