Enterprise orgs turning off internal AI SDR builds โ one generated zero meetings after firing SDR team
A dozen Common Room customers turned off internal AI SDR builds in the last 6 months. One enterprise generated zero meetings after replacing their SDR team with AI. The pattern: orgs rushed to replace sellers with AI when they should have enabled them. Validates Peakora's human+AI enablement positioning.
Today's release adds fallback model configuration supporting up to three backup models, broader glob pattern support in deny rules, and hardened cross-session messaging security. Also fixes terminal flickering in JetBrains IDEs and PowerShell command validation. This is your daily driver, worth noting the security hardening.
Programmatic usage moves to separate monthly credits ($20 Pro / $100 Max 5x / $200 Max 20x), no rollover, claim before deadline
Starting June 15, Agent SDK, claude -p, GitHub Actions, and third-party agents get a separate credit pool at full API rates. Pro gets $20/mo, Max 5x gets $100, Max 20x gets $200.

LinkedIn's native Sales Assistant feature is now in beta within Sales Navigator. It automates lead discovery across key accounts, generates personalized outreach drafts, and reduces manual prospecting. For Paul's GTM work, this is worth monitoring as it could complement or compete with Clay-based enrichment workflows.
June 2026 consensus: AI SDRs handle top-of-funnel volume well but aren't booking enterprise deals solo yet
Multiple June 2026 analyses converge on the same conclusion: AI agents save SDRs real hours of busywork on high-volume outbound, but complex multi-threading and enterprise relationship-building still needs humans. The framing that's working is 'AI augments SDRs' not 'AI replaces SDRs'. This validates Peakora's positioning of GTM engineering as enablement, not replacement.
