Our Thesis

Nobody reads cold email.
Everybody opens iMessage.

The inbox is a graveyard. LinkedIn is a megaphone factory. Outbound became noise — and the people you want to reach stopped listening.

We believe the future of outbound is conversational, not transactional. For AI agents to truly work in sales, they need a layer of trust that they currently lack.

We’re building this emotional layer of trust between humans and AI.

We imagine a future where AI agents take on independent, human roles — as trusted co-workers, not tools.

WHY CHERT

Not another dashboard.

Every AI outbound tool promises the same thing: a new surface to manage. We're not that. We're the team that does the work.

FAQ

Everything you
need to know.

Answers to the questions we hear most.

What is Chert?

Not the rock. We run your entire outbound pipeline over iMessage — from lead sourcing to real conversations to meetings booked on your calendar. Full-stack service, not another self-serve tool to configure.

Why iMessage instead of email or LinkedIn?

Email and LinkedIn are oversaturated — spam filters, low open rates, and generic outreach have made them less effective. iMessage is a trusted, personal channel with significantly higher response and conversion rates. No spam filters, no inbox competition.

How does onboarding work?

Book a call with us. We'll define your ICP together, set up a recurring campaign, and you'll start seeing meetings booked in less than a week. We handle everything — lead sourcing, outreach, and conversion.

Can I monitor or intervene in conversations?

Yes. You can monitor ongoing conversations in real-time and intervene manually whenever needed through our dashboard.

Do I need to bring my own lead data?

Not at all. We source leads and verified phone numbers for you based on your ICP. You can also bring your own data if you prefer.

What kind of companies use Chert?

We work with startups and growth-stage companies across industries. Our customers range from early-stage YC companies to post-PMF companies preparing for Series A.
