About
The product is a voice receptionist and outbound agent: Sayda.ai's own description is that it handles inbound calls, books appointments and runs outbound campaigns 24/7 with human-quality AI voice agents — the category aimed at businesses whose phone line is a real sales and service channel but not one they can staff continuously. Arash Fasihi is founder and chief executive. He founded Cymax Group in Vancouver in 2004 as an online furniture retailer and rebuilt it over more than a decade into Channel Gate, a digital supply-chain and multichannel platform helping retailers and manufacturers sell across Amazon, Walmart, Google and other channels; he stepped back from the CEO role after Markus Frind's Frind Holdings took a majority stake. The through-line he described on the TechVancouver stage in 2018 — a business nearly wiped out by a Google algorithm change and rebuilt around automation — is the same instinct applied to a different bottleneck.
