Vivun debuts Ava Assist, an AI sales assistant for complex B2B transactions

Vivun debuts Ava Assist, an AI sales assistant for complex B2B transactions. Vivun is introducing Ava Assist, the newest capability of Ava, an AI Sales Teammate, designed to help sales teams unlock instant capacity and improve execution across every stage of the sales process. Powered by Vivun's proprietary Sales Reasoning Model, Ava Assist empowers sellers before, during, and after their meetings - helping them sell smarter, faster, and better, according to the company. "With Ava Assist, we're giving every rep the power to operate at their best throughout the entire sales process," said Matt Darrow, CEO and co-founder of Vivun. "Whether preparing for a meeting, navigating a live conversation, or following up afterward, Ava delivers real-time support that unlocks instant capacity for teams and fundamentally changes how selling gets done." Built for high-velocity sales teams that need more capacity, Ava works side by side with reps to eliminate low-value work and amplify human performance, the company said. By combining real-time reasoning, contextual understanding, and multi-modal interaction via text, voice, or avatar, Ava provides proactive support that ensures every rep is prepared, confident, and in control. By leveraging Vivun's Sales Reasoning Model, Ava understands the nuances of B2B selling, providing contextual guidance that adapts to each opportunity, the company said. Vivun's team of engineers and researchers equipped Ava with scope, memory, and a robust world model capable of delivering expert intelligence. The context engineering transforms LLMs from eloquent mimics into systems that can be trusted in high-stakes environments. Ava Assist extends Ava's role as a true AI teammate - not just an assistant or workflow bot - by giving reps the ability to: * Prepare Before Meetings: Conduct account research, understand stakeholder motivations, and role-play discovery conversations with Ava to walk into every meeting prepared and confident. * Perform During Meetings: Receive real-time insights, competitor intel, and product answers on the spot while staying focused on the buyer conversation - with the seller able to control whether Ava listens silently or actively engages. * Follow Up After Meetings: Get guided next steps and coaching based on the context of the conversation - so deals move forward without administrative delays. Vivun is offering a 30-day free trial for teams to experience how Ava unlocks capacity across their sales process. For more information about this news, visit www.vivun.com.
