Hyperbound

Overview

Hyperbound is an AI Sales Coaching & Role-Play Platform that intelligently analyzes sales calls and helps reps practice scenarios they struggle with most through realistic AI-powered roleplay simulations. Founded in 2023 by Sriharsha Guduguntla and Atul Raghunathan in San Francisco, Hyperbound pioneered the AI Sales Roleplay category for mid-market and enterprise revenue teams. The company participated in Y Combinator and raised a $15M Series A led by Peak XV Partners in September 2025, bringing total funding to over $18M. The platform is trained on over 2 million hours of B2B sales calls, with 250,000+ roleplays completed on the platform. Hyperbound's AI creates conversational avatars that simulate real buyer personas - from skeptical CFOs to technical CTOs - allowing sales reps to practice objection handling, discovery questions, product positioning, and closing techniques in a safe environment before engaging real prospects. Key features include AI-powered roleplay with realistic buyer personas that adapt based on rep responses, real call scoring using the same AI models to analyze actual sales conversations, custom AI scorecards aligned with your sales methodology (MEDDIC, BANT, etc.), learning modules for continuous skill development, and team analytics that show coaching opportunities and skill gaps across the organization. Managers can create custom scenarios based on their specific product, market, and buyer personas, ensuring practice is directly relevant to real-world situations. Hyperbound serves enterprise sales organizations including Zoom, Oracle, Adobe, Teleperformance, and Check Point. Customer results show sales increases exceeding 20% after an average of just 30 minutes of training per employee, with onboarding time reduced by as much as three weeks. The platform helps revenue leaders scale coaching without linearly scaling manager time, ensuring every rep gets consistent, high-quality practice regardless of team size. In less than two years, Hyperbound has expanded from basic roleplay to include real call scoring, custom AI scorecards, and learning modules, enabling organizations to continuously coach every member of the revenue team. The platform supports 20 languages and multiple conversational styles, allowing global teams to practice in their native language and cultural context. What sets Hyperbound apart is the realism of its AI simulations - the avatars don't just follow scripts, they react dynamically to what reps say, surfacing objections and questions based on context just like real buyers would. This creates high-fidelity practice that translates directly to improved performance in real conversations. The platform's integration with real call scoring creates a continuous feedback loop where reps practice weak areas identified from actual calls, creating targeted skill development.
