About LinkedIn

Cykel builds the world's most capable digital workers, starting with Lucy, a 24/7 recruitment partner that autonomously manages end-to-end hiring processes—from sourcing and screening to pipeline management. The company also offers Eve, an AI sales tool that generates smart cold outbound sequences by identifying high-value prospects using ICP matching and real intent signals, handling multi-channel sequencing (LinkedIn and email), and allowing tone and pain point selection with built-in prompting for quick refinement. Cykel aims to reduce administrative workload by 30-50% for recruiters and helps sales teams cut message writing time from hours to minutes, positioning itself as the easiest way to generate go-to-market intelligence.
