An AI BDR — "Ava" — that sources leads from a 250M+ contact database, runs multichannel sequences, and books meetings autonomously.
Overview
The AI SDR category earned a bad reputation in 2025 by shipping agents that sent obviously robotic mail at scale. Artisan is one of the survivors, and the reason is that it owns the whole stack: the 250M+ verified B2B contact database, the sequencing, the deliverability handling, and the reply management sit in one product, so there is no seam between "bad data" and "bad copy" to argue about. Ava identifies high-intent leads, launches personalized email and social campaigns, A/B tests messaging automatically, handles replies, and books meetings, while respecting CRM account ownership. SOC 2 Type II with SSO, SAML, and SCIM makes it viable above the startup segment. The honest framing: this replaces the mechanical half of an SDR, not the judgment half, and it will burn your domain reputation if you point it at a badly-defined ICP.
