AI Employee Startup Viktor Hits $25M ARR, Hires Former Notion Exec as CRO
aliscodes · x · 2026-07-30
AI employee product Viktor reached $25M ARR within its first 16 months, driven entirely by a self-serve product motion.
After hitting this milestone, the company took an unconventional approach by hiring Robbie—who previously led go-to-market for Notion, Asana, and Dropbox—as its first Chief Revenue Officer. The founder noted that the playbook for taking an AI employee to market doesn't exist yet, requiring dedicated leadership to navigate the high LTV and volatility characteristic of the SMB market.
