About Us

We’re a Y Combinator–backed (S20) AI company building the future of eCommerce operations.

We build two products

BIK.ai is an Agentic AI CRM for eCommerce — a single platform that replaces fragmented marketing, retention, and support tools with 100+ AI agents, automating up to 90% of the eCommerce stack. Today, AI agents built on BIK power over $100M in annual sales for 500+ brands.

Manifest.ai is a GPT powered digital store associate that helps eCommerce brands convert more traffic by helping buyers with answering questions, recommending products, and guiding purchases.

  • Together, BIK.ai and Manifest.ai serve 500+ global brands across India, the US, and other international markets,, including Transformer Table, LEGO, Mitchell, Imagine, and Durex.
  • We’re growing fast, selling globally, and now scaling aggressively in the US.
  • About the Role
  • This is not a typical AE role.
  • You’ll be one of our first Account Executives in the US, working closely with the founders to build pipeline, close deals, and help define how we sell as we scale.
  • You’ll sell directly to eCommerce founders, CEOs, and operators who are overwhelmed by tool sprawl — and show them a simpler, AI-first way to drive growth.
  • If you like ownership, outbound selling, and being close to real revenue, you’ll like this role.
  • What You’ll Do
  • Own the entire sales cycle, from outbound prospecting to close
  • Build pipeline through cold calls, email, LinkedIn, and account research
  • Run discovery, demos, negotiations, and close deals yourself
  • Sell to senior decision-makers (Founders, CEOs, Heads of Growth, Ops leaders)
  • Travel within the US with the founders for key sales meetings and events
  • Represent the company at industry events and in-person customer meetings
  • Bring real customer feedback into product and GTM decisions

Who This Is For

  • 3–5 years of B2B SaaS sales experience with real closing ownership
  • Comfortable in outbound-heavy, zero-to-one environments
  • Confident with face-to-face selling, negotiation, and closing
  • Based in the United States
  • Self-directed, high-ownership, and comfortable with ambiguity
  • Contract-to-Hire Structure
  • This role starts as a 2-month paid contract, designed as a focused ramp period.
  • During this time, you’ll be expected to:
  • Build pipeline
  • Run demos
  • Progress deals toward close
  • Strong performers will convert to a full-time AE role with expanded responsibility and upside.
  • Why This Role Is Different
  • You’re joining early, not inheriting someone else’s playbook
  • You’ll work directly with founders, not layers of management
  • You’ll sell products already driving real revenue at scale
  • You’ll help define how we win the US market

If that excites you, we should talk.
