About

Built by people who think forward and think big.

Based in Seattle, Forerunr.ai was founded in 2025 by Sage Weiss, Ryan Houghton, and Tommy Tran — combining firsthand experience in sales, data analysis, and software development. We built the tool we wished we had.

Cold calling in insurance is exhausting, inconsistent, and inefficient. AI can improve the top of the funnel so your best people can focus on closing business and building relationships.

We believe AI should create more opportunities without replacing what makes sales human — the relationship.
