As previously shared on our blog, the AI application layer is evolving fast, opening up new opportunities for intelligent agents that can handle entire tasks end-to-end with minimal human input.
In the past, SaaS platforms followed a simple premise: “Here’s a tool, now use it to get your work done.” Today, with Agentic AI, the model is shifting. Businesses can now delegate full tasks to AI agents and receive completed outcomes, cutting down the human-in-the-loop time to nearly zero.
This is where Throxy stands out: it is not just a tool to boost your sales development team, it is the SDR. Here are the reasons why we are backing the startup in their $6.2M seed round.
A World-Class Founding Team with Unmatched Vision
Throxy’s founding team is one of the strongest we’ve ever met. It combines deep technical expertise, proven sales execution, and the rare ability to move at speed with clarity of purpose:
- Arnau Ayerbe is the brain behind Throxy’s technology. He’s the AI and product leader with a background at JP Morgan, where he worked on early GPT-2 and BERT systems.
- Bergen Merey is a serial entrepreneur who built his first online business at 14 and now remains deeply engaged with clients, translating insights into operational wins.
- Pablo Jiménez de Parga is a sales powerhouse. He’s an enterprise sales expert with experience from Seed to Series D, addressing inefficiencies in bloated tool stacks and workflows.
Bergen and Arnau have been best friends since university, and Pablo was already a close friend of Arnau before joining forces. Their mutual respect and complementary skill sets create a tightly aligned leadership team.
What’s most striking is their conviction. In every discussion prior to the funding round, they outline not just how they will compete, but how they will win their market.
Targeting a Massive, Underserved Market
Throxy focuses on a $3.6B+ market often ignored by traditional sales tools: companies selling into legacy industries such as manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and finance.
Selling into these verticals is complex; sales cycles are long, trust is critical, and buyers are not easily reached via mainstream channels like LinkedIn. Many of these companies don’t appear in common prospecting databases like Apollo or have outdated online footprints.
Instead of relying on generic scraping or mass outreach, Throxy delivers hyper-personalized messaging in the buyer’s language, leading to qualified, ready-to-close client meetings.
A Clear, Outcome-Driven Value Proposition
Throxy offers a tangible promise: define your ICP, and receive up to five calls a week with perfect-fit prospects.
The platform runs the entire outbound process, from strategy and niche-specific data acquisition to messaging, infrastructure, and booking, at a cost lower and more effective than building an in-house SDR function.
This is not software for software’s sake; it’s B2B sales outcomes on demand: “We charge you for 5 weekly already-prospected client calls on your calendar, so that you can close.”
Rapid Growth and Demonstrated Traction
Within just six months of focusing on go-to-market execution, Throxy became the most traction-heavy company in its Y Combinator batch, growing 60% month-over-month.
In one week, the team increased booked revenue by over $200K. Contracts closed in as little as 16 days, with zero churn.
These results aren’t projections, they are already delivering measurable growth for clients.
Using Their Own Product to Drive Sales
Throxy runs its own outbound pipeline through its platform, continuously refining it with real-world feedback; they are their own clients. This “dogfooding” approach ensures they spot weaknesses, optimize processes, and validate effectiveness.
Pablo actively leverages Throxy’s system to close more clients: proof of the product’s power.
Building a Proprietary Data Advantage
Unlike many AI startups that rely heavily on third-party tools, Throxy has developed its own custom prospecting database.
By scraping the open web, they create sector-specific lead lists for industries most tools can’t reach. Each client engagement refines this dataset further, creating a defensible data moat in underserved B2B markets.
Capital-Efficient and Laser-Focused on Growth
To date, Throxy’s growth has been fueled with minimal investment. As Pablo told us in a meeting, if they raised, it was just to accelerate ARR to $10M in the next 18 months, and that stuck with us.
These founders are scrappy, capital-efficient, and deeply thoughtful about how they use resources. Every dollar raised is allocated to revenue-generating activities rather than bloated operations. And judging by their current trajectory, they’re well on their way.
Why Throxy’s Approach Matters for B2B Sales
Throxy represents the shift from tools to outcomes, from software to agents, and from noise to precision.
With a proven team, a proprietary data engine, and real-world traction, Throxy is positioned to become the go-to outbound partner for B2B companies selling into complex industries.
For businesses ready to scale into legacy markets, Throxy offers a simple promise: they handle the outbound, you close the deals.
