Zobi claims $0 to $30M ARR in 90 days building EQ models trained to sell

Tallinn-based applied AI lab Zobi claims it went from $0 to $30M ARR in 90 days — a pace the poster says beats ElevenLabs, Lovable, and Higgsfield (self-reported, unaudited).
Zobi trains "EQ" models designed to understand and persuade buyers. Its data moat: the company runs sales conversations end-to-end — 50,000+ live conversations daily, 1.4M+ people reached, 7.5M messages exchanged, 45% reply rate — with every thread labeled by what the human actually did next, a training signal absent from public internet data. Evaluation is on revenue generated, not benchmarks.
Backed by Seedcamp and others, the company is hiring 10 roles in Tallinn with no management layers, including CTO, COO, and CFO.
