Show HN: I made AI sales reps for live product demos

WHat do I think? I think you must not have much experience using AI, because if you had you would not consider this.
AI tech support, AI summarizers, try them! Are you actually impressed with them? Be honest. I find them infuriating, stupid, and pointless. You can't trust what they say.
You know how people feel about used car salesmen? They also feel that way about AI sales reps.
I'd like you to sit next to me the next time I try to coax actual details and puzzle through contradicting statements from a tech support bot. I will periodically turn to you with a pleading look on my face, as if to say "Did you see that? And you think that's okay?" and then I will open my mouth and say the same words that my face shouted.
Undortunately, it's getting to the point that the moment I suspect I'm dealing with AI I am out.
You should pre-record your demos and provide documentation and contact info. Absolutely nobody is impressed by your fucking bot.

Hey, yeah I respect your opinion, of course!
That's why in the beginning of the call it discloses it's an AI. Not all people are cool with it, but for most people who are not into tech, it's actually a fun experience I would argue

I mainly use Google Meet's API (hosting the meeting), OpenAI GPT v4o (llm), 11labs (for voice), deepgram (for the transcription of the meeting) and Twilio (to connect to the meeting).
Of course, it's early days (I built this yesterday) but so far, the results looks promising.
Unlike pre-recorded demo videos, AI agents can screenshare and demo the product while also responding in real time to questions and handle objections as they arise.
What do you think?
