GoTo increases pipeline coverage 10x with Outreach Agentic AI platform

The problem

GoTo's previous sales engagement tool relied on manual processes that were cumbersome to maintain, resulting in poor seller adoption, incorrect content usage with the wrong personas, and insufficient data for managers to evaluate pipeline coverage or quota attainment.

First attempt

GoTo's sellers did not fully embrace the previous sales engagement tool because it was burdensome to maintain; the resulting adoption gap left managers without the data needed to evaluate rep performance or trust pipeline figures.
