    I'm starting a new company: Applied Will Labs are training AI on tasks that AI generated. Nobody checks whether those tasks are solvable, or whether their graders can be gamed. We're building the human verification laye…

    Before I built Buena, I was an SDR at Scale AI. I know what great outbound takes: hours of research, a list you trust, a first line that proves you did your homework, and follow-up that never drops. For the last three y…

    Selling has always started with one question: who actually needs what I sell? In 1953, you read shop windows. Door by door. Call by call. In 2000, you scrolled craigslist for someone asking "Got a phone system?" Today,…

    Found a targeting setup worth testing in another market? Buena Signals lets you clone targeting by geography. Keep the role and company criteria, review the new market, then confirm the search. The example takes revenu…

    AI can prepare outreach while you keep control of what goes live. In Buena, you review the recipient, message and sending rules. Approving the draft and activating the sequence are separate decisions. That boundary mat…

    Email and LinkedIn should feel like parts of the same conversation. Buena lets you prepare the steps together, with the same prospect in view. This example starts with an email on day one, a LinkedIn connection on day…

    My bet: JEV becomes a tool sales agents use every day. We’ve made it available through Buena AI MCP. You can bring JEV into the AI agent you already use for prospect research and outreach prep. Give it a prospect list…

    Most AI agent demos end at a screenshot. Mine ended with drinks on the table in Kraków. Plain language in: bring drinks to the venue. The agent built a real Glovo basket, waited for me to approve the exact quote, paid…
