AskElephant (Lehi, UT), an AI-powered platform helping customer-facing teams work smarter and more humanely, has raised a $6 million seed round to scale operations and extend its proactive intelligence across sales, CS, and implementation workflows.
Lehi, Utah – May 20, 2025
AskElephant, a centralized AI-powered platform designed for customer-facing teams in sales, marketing, and go-to-market roles, has raised a $6 million seed round. The oversubscribed round was led by new investor Jump Capital (Chicago). High Alpha (highalpha.com)—an Indianapolis-based B2B venture firm founded by Scott Dorsey, who sold ExactTarget to Salesforce in 2013 (now operating as Salesforce Marketing Cloud)—and local investors Tandem Ventures (Draper, UT), Element Ventures (Provo), Ollin (Provo), and SaaS Ventures (Miami, FL) also participated in the round.
Founded by Woody Klemetson, one of the first employees at Utah fintech unicorn Divvy, Lehi-based AskElephant was born out of his experience leading Divvy’s global go-to-market strategy through its acquisition by Bill.com in 2021. “I’ve caused that myself in past roles,” Klemetson admits. “When I was running sales and implementation, we forced teams to use too many tools. It was all noise, no connection.”
Making Work Human Again
At its core, AskElephant aims to do something refreshingly simple: give people time back to be human.
“AI’s not going to replace everything,” said Klemetson. “And frankly, people are tired. They just want to show up and talk to other humans. AskElephant helps them do that.”
Rather than adding another point solution, AskElephant acts as a proactive orchestration layer that integrates with calendars, CRMs, email, and meeting transcripts. It works behind the scenes to surface insights—like churn risk, customer objections, meeting prep, and action item follow-ups—so teams can focus on conversations, not software.
“We just switched from reactive to proactive,” said Klemetson. “If you’re meeting with someone, AskElephant gathers everything—notes, transcripts, past objections—and preps you so you can just show up and talk.”
From Fintech Roots to GTM Operating System
AskElephant reflects Klemetson’s firsthand understanding of modern revenue teams. As Saaya Pal, Partner at Jump Capital, explained, “The RevTech stack is bloated. Every tool solves a small problem. Together they explode into a constellation of disconnected point solutions.”
AskElephant consolidates those tools by serving as a “second brain”—an AI assistant that monitors meetings, notes, CRM activity, and customer interactions to improve execution and alignment. It proactively delivers deal intervention signals, product feedback, and training opportunities, while automating routine tasks like CRM note-taking and pre-meeting briefs.
Pal called it “simple on the surface, deep under the hood,” and added, “Teams using it say it feels less like a tool and more like a true partner.”
Traction and Adoption
AskElephant has demonstrated strong product-market fit, with 100% quarter-over-quarter growth and a growing customer base that includes Disruptive Advertising, Pest Share, Agility, BoomCloud, Applause, ELB Learning, and Redo.
“What started as a sales tool was quietly becoming a company-wide layer for smarter, more coordinated work,” said Pal. “It doesn’t ask teams to change how they work. It plugs in quietly, pulls the right data, and becomes the central nervous system for all revenue-facing teams.”
The platform is natively integrated with HubSpot and can connect with all major CRMs, allowing it to support sales, CS, implementation, and even product or security teams.
Pal added, “Customers weren’t just adopting it—they were expanding use at a pace unprecedented for a company so early in its journey.”
Built for Humans, Not Dashboards
Klemetson emphasized the platform’s focus on people, not features. “I’m not a technical guy,” he said. “I just want to talk to people. Anything pulling me away from that has to go.”
That clarity resonated with Pal: “Woody is the very embodiment of founder-market fit. He’s building for the people doing the work, not just the people buying the software. That empathy shows up in everything—from the product’s flexibility to the way it wins trust inside organizations.”
AskElephant began with agent-based workflows that automated follow-ups and summaries, and later added its own transcription tool to improve accuracy and consolidate cost. “We actually started off with the agent,” said Klemetson. “I integrated with Otter, but then decided to consolidate and build our own transcription tool.”
Real-Time Insight, Real Conversations
AskElephant isn’t about doing more with less—it’s about doing better. “Every tool already says it’ll save you time,” said Klemetson. “AskElephant is about unlocking the things that are preventing you from being you.”
Pal shared the moment that convinced Jump to invest: “When we first saw AskElephant in action, it was a meeting prep workflow. In seconds, it pulled together a full customer brief with notes, transcripts, objections, and next steps. What usually takes 30 minutes was done automatically and accurately.”
Use cases now span beyond sales. CS teams run onboarding flows, implementation specialists drive smoother handoffs, and managers automate coaching and follow-ups.
Looking Ahead
With its $6 million seed round now closed, AskElephant plans to expand its Lehi-based team, deepen its enterprise integrations, and enhance its no-code automation engine.
“We’re hiring,” Klemetson said. “We’ll use this capital to grow thoughtfully—with people who understand that AI should watch your back, not add to your workload.”
Pal concluded, “AskElephant doesn’t just fit our thesis—it helps define it. Because the elephant in the room is this: revenue tech hasn’t been working. And AskElephant is finally doing something about it.”
