Leading independent Technology Solutions Distributor Sandler Partners launches ScoutAI, a new AI-powered Sales Engineer developed in-house to help Partners identify the right Providers for their clients’ needs within minutes.
Sandler Partners, the nation’s leading independent Technology Solutions Distributor, announced the launch of ScoutAI, a new AI-powered personal Sales Engineer that draws on insights from actual sales and installs to help Partners identify the right Providers and solutions for their clients. Managing Partner Alan Sandler unveiled ScoutAI at the company’s National Summit in San Diego on October 27th, introducing it as a source of on-demand guidance designed to help Partners build client trust and uncover new opportunities.
Developed in-house, ScoutAI makes that guidance accessible by emailing [email protected]. Partners can ask a quick question, forward a client’s invoice, or attach an RFP from the same email address they use to log in to the Sandler Portal—no special formatting required. Within minutes, they receive a detailed response to help them weigh their options and move the opportunity forward.
“Everything we do is for our Partners, and ScoutAI is one more investment in innovation built to help them grow,” says Alan Sandler, Managing Partner at Sandler Partners. “It’s an on-demand sales engineer for every Partner, anywhere, anytime, drawing on the experience of our entire engineering team, not anyone’s sales deck. It tells Partners what’s best for them and their customer, and makes them even more valuable to the clients who already trust them.”
