The metrics: • $40M Series B (WestBridge Capital led) • 900% revenue growth YoY • Team tripled to 40+ people • Customers: SAP, Google, Snowflake • <1 year since $13.7M Series A How it happened: • Started consumer (public speaking practice) • Pivoted to B2B sales training • Built interactive roleplay vs passive slides • Focused on ROI-measurable outcomes • Expanded to "experiential learning" • Landed enterprise logos early Takeaway: Interactive beats passive.
