Centaur Labs achieves 6x higher replies and 72% fewer bounces with Amplemarket Duo Copilot

The problem

Centaur Labs had legacy sales processes and deliverability challenges limiting their ability to reach the right prospects at scale, with their unique selling points failing to reach the right people — especially on LinkedIn and email.

First attempt

Prior sequencing tools produced poor delivery and open rates relative to what Amplemarket later delivered, making email outreach less effective before the switch.
