[$200M ARR Founders] How SaaS Founders Are Rebuilding GTM with AI - "Claude-Proof" Growth

Smartlead

AI has lowered the barrier to building SaaS.

But it has also flooded the market with more products, more noise, and more competition.

Standing out is no longer about features alone. It’s about how you go to market.

In this special Smartlead Office Hours session, seven SaaS founders and GTM leaders share how they’re adapting their go-to-market strategies to win in this new reality.

Instead of relying on a single channel or stacking more tools, they are using AI intentionally, layering multichannel outreach, and rebuilding acquisition engines that generate focused demand in crowded markets.

This conversation focuses on what’s actually working today to:

cut through noise

generate pipeline

build sustainable growth systems

No theory. No hype. Just real GTM shifts founders are making to win.
