Skarbe

Skarbe Inc. is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) company positioning itself as an AI-powered sales assistant designed to replace traditional Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems for specific user groups. The company was founded in 2023 by Mikita Martynau (CEO) and Alex Talyuk (CTO). The founders, both originally from Belarus, bring relevant experience to the venture; Martynau contributed to scaling PandaDoc from $10 million to $100 million in annual recurring revenue, while Talyuk has a background in building AI systems.

The company targets a market segment often overlooked by complex CRM platforms: solo founders, freelancers, and small B2B sales teams (typically 2-10 people). Skarbe's core value proposition is to eliminate the administrative burden of sales, which founders often describe as a "second job," by automating tasks that are manually managed in spreadsheets or cumbersome CRMs. The platform operates by integrating with a user's existing tools like email and calendars to automatically log interactions, transcribe calls, and analyze communications. Based on this data, its AI agent suggests next steps for each deal, drafts follow-up emails in the user's tone, generates to-do lists, and provides reminders to keep the sales pipeline moving. This functionality aims to save time and streamline deal tracking without requiring users to learn a new system or perform manual data entry.

Skarbe operates on a freemium and usage-based subscription model, avoiding per-seat pricing to align costs with value for smaller teams. It offers a free starter plan, a pro plan for more established teams, and a custom business plan. Having dual headquarters in San Francisco, USA, and Krakow, Poland, the company serves a global user base, supporting over 100 languages for its more than 2,500 users. In June 2025, Skarbe secured $600,000 in a pre-seed funding round. The round was led by FIRSTPICK, with participation from Somersault Ventures and angel investors Andreas Mihalovits and Jeroen Van Ermen. These funds are allocated to accelerate product development, with plans to introduce features like automated lead qualification, a mobile application, and more personalized AI models.
