About
Avarra is a San Mateo, California company that turns a company's sales expertise into AI avatars for go-to-market teams. Its avatars run role-play and coaching sessions, prep reps before calls, join live deals to answer questions and meet buyers on the website, and every session feeds insight back to revenue leaders; the platform runs natively on Zoom. It grew out of sales training simulations, and its published customers include Elastic, Masimo, Proofpoint, Netskope and Owner.com. Avarra was co-founded by David Knight (CEO), Chris Iezzoni, Matt Huang and Scot McIntosh. In October 2026 it announced a $17 million Series A led by Duration Ventures, with Lightspeed Venture Partners, Draper Associates, GTMfund, Alumni Ventures and a strategic investment from Zoom.
