👀 Bit of an update over here! – Over the past two years we've worked on FifthRow.com to automate what we did – In 2024, no U+ project ran without FifthRow – We realized we inadvertently became a FifthRow company 🎉 U+ is now FifthRow! We believe that all knowledge work will be automated. We believe that 80% of professional services and consulting work will be automated. We believe that corporations will replace a significant share of external and internal spend with autonomous agents—through Flows, Apps, and Coworkers. Check out our new website and read more: https://lnkd.in/dwAnc2x3 P.S. We are still waiting to merge our other LinkedIn pages here and make some redirects so bear with us

Sean Sheppard will be moderating an executive roundtable focused on AI for closing at the AI Summit Sep 3-5 on Hard Skill Exchange. Here’s a link to register for free: https://lnkd.in/gtNB9Wq3. The AI Summit brings together B2B’s leading GTM minds, technology vendors and analysts onto 7 executive roundtables to discuss the “art of the possible” with artificial intelligence in revtech as it stands today. #AISummit
