Speed to lead sounds like a sales tactic
It's actually the whole game
Ruben Harris knows this better than anyone
He built a 300-person call center across 3 countries to reach 1M people a month
...and saw exactly where the ceiling was
The problem isn't effort. It's physics.
A working-class student fills out a form at 10 PM. Nobody's staffed at 10 PM
So 90% of leads go cold
Not because they weren't interested
Because nobody got back to them fast enough
Outrival's AI agents respond in under a minute
They call, text, email, and follow up
One client made $ 10M in new revenue from leads they already had
The best outbound AI isn't replacing humans
It's doing the work humans never had time to do
🎙️ @rubenharris, CEO & Co-Founder, @outrivalAI on @fondocom@thestartpod
Huge thanks to @Rippling for making this episode possible!
Video recap of my time speaking at @aiDotEngineer@AIEMiami. Shout out to @MichelleBakels@Beccalytics for creating so many incredible experiences. Lots of great conversations, presentations, and connections. Already looking forward to next year!
Our Head of Insurance @JohnHenryStyle wanted to give you all a sneak peek to our office in Miami so you can get a taste of how our engineers make the magic happen and how @outrivalAI keeps closing these enterprise deals 💰 shout out to @asugsvsummit in San Diego
NEWSFLASH: @outrivalAI just launched our dedicated insurance vertical, led by @JohnHenryStyle
We're already live with both publicly traded and private companies, doing 3M+ calls/month across education, insurance, and travel.
What Silicon Valley calls AI agents, we call Digital Workers. They make outbound calls, send texts, emails, and voicemails.
But here's what makes insurance different for us: we're not just helping carriers cut costs. We're helping them build their brand and make money.
Every claim, renewal, and billing call is a brand moment. Our AI voice layer lets each carrier build their own persona across every policyholder touchpoint.
Full press release below.

I’ve seen @GrantKurz show up week after week to build an AI community in Miami of Builders!!!
When @rubenharris and I launched @outrivalAI it happened at GPT Tuesday’s in 2024!
So happy to see him continuing to create a real community with @DeepStationAI and winning!
People keep comparing Miami to Silicon Valley.
That's the wrong frame.
Silicon Valley was built on exclusion - the right zip code, the right school, the right warm intro.
Also SV is an important place for 🇺🇸 competitiveness - we need it to keep winning.
Miami is being built on access.
A Google co-founder just proved it.
