“we just hit a million dollars in ARR with our SaaS product... I know the whole point of this video is that we built it with Claude code. Um, I would say that's like 90% true.”
Editor's note: By his own deal maths (about 300k ARR per 100-seat deal), the million comes from a handful of mid-market contracts, so a few customers carry most of the revenue. He says the 'built with Claude Code' title is 'like 90% true': the team also used DeepSeek for long-running refactors and increasingly uses Codex because of token costs. The video doubles as a pitch for Clairvo and for his paid community. Some client-impact figures in the video contradict each other (per year vs per month), so they are not used here. An auto-dialer is a regulated product in many places; the video does not cover compliance.
How they got customers
High-touch sales to mid-market and larger companies in call-heavy industries, rolled out to their existing calling teams; one early rollout was at one of his own eight-figure clients. On X he says a single 15-minute YouTube video drove 75 leads for Clairvo.
Steps to try
Pick an expensive, painful problem that companies will pay real money to fix, not a lukewarm nice-to-have like a to-do app.
From the sourceHave Claude spawn parallel subagents that each propose many different ways to move your key metric, then throw out the junk by hand and build the few ideas that work.
From the sourcePick a price, sell it, and keep raising it while people keep paying; Clairvo went from about 100 to 250 a month per seat.
From the sourceKeep the codebase model-agnostic so you can switch between Claude Code, Codex and other models as token costs change.
From the sourceWith only a few large customers, watch concentration risk, and check calling and consent rules before selling any auto-dialer.
