Outbound sales platform that finds ICP-fit leads in a 650M+ contact database, uses AI agents to spot buying signals, research and enrich each lead and write personalised copy, then runs sequences across email, LinkedIn, calls, WhatsApp and SMS.

Writer

Application

WRITER Enterprise BrainApplication

Universal context layer that grounds AI agents in a company's Agent Memory (captured decisions and preferences) and Company Standards (brand, tone, compliance), listed in WRITER's own top-level product navigation alongside Models, AI Studio, WRITER Agent and WRITER for Slack.

No counterpart

Writer sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for lemlist yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.

Agent platform

WRITER AI StudioAgent platform

WRITER's build surface: business teams assemble agents on an interoperable platform while technology teams keep visibility and governance over what ships.

Platform

WRITER Knowledge GraphPlatform

WRITER's retrieval layer. A specialised LLM reads a customer's own documents, spreadsheets, slides and PDFs and builds a graph of the semantic relationships between them rather than storing vector embeddings, so retrieval can follow multi-hop connections, break a broad question into sub-questions and return specific source citations before WRITER's Palmyra models generate the answer.

WriterPlatform

Enterprise platform for building AI applications and agents on Writer's own models.
