Groove is a sales productivity platform arming sellers with a suite of tools that enable higher quota achievement via workflow automation and AI-driven guided selling. The company has built a platform that is secure and flexible enough to serve a wide variety of enterprises, including highly regulated industries such as healthcare and financial services. It also boasts buyer-centric, cross-functional pricing.
