# Introducing The Ride-Along Superhuman: The Ai Sales Engineer That Joins Your Live Calls

## **Quick answer:** 
The **Ride-Along Superhuman** is the first AI that joins live sales calls as a visible, named participant and speaks directly to the buyer. Built by 1mind and launched May 2026, it functions as an autonomous Sales Engineer on every call: answering technical questions, presenting slides, running demos, and handling objections at conversation speed, while the AE runs the room. 
- Every other in-call AI tool on the market whispers to the rep behind the scenes or summarizes the call after it ends. 
- The Ride-Along Superhuman participates in the conversation, on **Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet**, with the same fluency a senior SE would bring.

Hero customer **Experity replaced its in-call AI with 1mind and saw 3x more revenue in half the time**, with win rates from 26% to 50% and cycles from 28 days to 15.

## **The 4:1 problem nobody fixes**
The median ratio of Account Executives to Solutions Engineers in B2B SaaS sits at **4:1**, and in plenty of organizations it stretches to **10:1**. SE time is rationed to the biggest deals. Everything else runs without technical backup, which means the AE walks into discovery, demos, and validation calls hoping the buyer doesn't ask a question that requires real product depth.

SBI's buyer research found that **71% of buyers describe their experience with sales reps as frustrating**. The responses to this problem are familiar and inadequate: hire more SEs, build a chatbot, bolt on a copilot that whispers tips into the rep's ear… none of these fix the gap between a buyer's question and a credible answer.

**Ride-Along closes it.**

## **What The Ride-Along Superhuman Actually Does**
The **Ride-Along Superhuman** joins your live customer calls **as a named participant**. On the call, the Superhuman does four things:

1. **Listens to the full conversation in real time**.
2. **Answers technical and product questions on demand**.
3. **Presents slides and runs live product demos**.
4. **Handles objections** (security, integrations).

The Superhuman captures structured signals after the call, so the AE walks out of the meeting with a clean record of what was said, what was promised, and what to do next.

## **How this is structurally different from anything else in the market**
Every in-call AI tool that came before Ride-Along made the same compromise. The buyer hears the answer, in the moment, from a participant they can see on the screen.

## **How the AE actually runs a call with a Ride-Along Superhuman**
The Superhuman is a teammate, not a feature. Reps who get the most out of Ride-Along run their calls in what we call **flying formation**: the AE owns the room and the relationship, and the Superhuman owns the technical depth.

### **Before the call**
The AE adds the Superhuman to the meeting and fills out the **Meeting Context** field: who the prospect is and what to focus on today. The rep uploads any presentable materials for the Superhuman to share on screen.

### **During the call**
The AE starts the Superhuman in **Silent** mode. The AE runs discovery and when the conversation turns technical, the rep introduces the Superhuman by name. The Superhuman provides technical detail and the rep takes the room back.

### **Closing the call**
The Superhuman heard everything, so the AE uses them to close strong, asking for recommendations based on what was covered.

## **The results customers are already reporting**
The Ride-Along Superhuman has been adopted by companies including **HubSpot, Nutanix, Coupa,** among others. The results across the same audience and sales team include:
- Inquiry-to-opportunity conversion lifted from **6% to 10%**.
- Win rates doubled from **26% to 50%**.

## **Where this is going next**
The Ride-Along Superhuman can join onboarding sessions as a Customer Success teammate or even as an enablement layer for AE training.

## **Availability**
The Ride-Along Superhuman is available for early-access customers on **Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet**. Implementation takes four to six weeks. Pricing is flat per session.
