With a customer base five times larger than its nearest competitor, Gong’s underlying AI has a commanding advantage to learn and adapt to rapidly changing trends and provide more thoughtful recommendations that drive superior business outcomes.

“Revenue intelligence is an exciting category in sales technology,” said Alex Kayyal, Partner at Salesforce Ventures. “We were impressed with Gong’s strong market traction and the resounding enthusiasm expressed by their customers.”

Co-founded by Amit Bendov, CEO, and Eilon Reshef, Chief Product Officer, Gong has been on a hyper-growth trajectory. Company achievements to date include:

Over 64,000 sales and support professionals using the platform
Earning an industry-leading Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 72
The recently launched Deal Intelligence module, providing sales professionals with unprecedented deal pipeline visibility and alerts on deals requiring intervention

“We made a bold prediction in 2016 that Gong’s technology would become the most significant innovation for sales since the invention of CRM,” said Gong CEO and Co-founder, Amit Bendov. “The market has proven that prediction was correct. With global sales teams switching to remote work and field sales teams grounded for the foreseeable future, we are seeing substantial demand for Gong’s solution even in a challenging business environment. There is a new way to win in sales and the best sales teams are turning to Gong’s Revenue Intelligence Platform to guide them down that path.”

New Gong Labs Research Finds AI Is Now a Trusted Decision-Maker in Revenue Teams

Global report also shows that teams that use AI as a core driver of revenue strategy are 65% more likely to increase win rates. Data also reveals that AI-driven teams generate 77% more revenue per representative – a six digit increase over those who don't. SAN FRANCISCO — December 4, 2025 — Gong, the leading Revenue AI company, today released its second annual State of Revenue AI report, revealing that AI has earned its seat at the revenue table. According to the report, seven in ten enterprise revenue leaders now trust AI to regularly make business decisions. This signals the technology’s evolution from a competitive edge that helped individuals gain efficiency into an essential for every level of the revenue organization. The data shows that these AI-powered decisions are bearing fruit: organizations embedding AI as a core driver of their go-to-market (GTM) strategy are outperforming their peers, being 65% more likely to increase win rates. The research, drawn from an analysis of 7.1 million sales opportunities across 3,600+ companies and a survey of more than 3,000 global revenue leaders, offers fresh insights into how revenue teams are adapting to economic shifts, embracing AI, and redefining productivity and growth for the year ahead. “Our research reveals a fundamental shift in how AI shows up in forward-thinking revenue teams. It’s no longer a helpful sidekick, but now a strategic partner,” said Amit Bendov, CEO and co-founder, Gong. “Revenue teams that embrace AI aren’t just seeing better revenue outcomes, they’re reshaping entire GTM functions. The data shows us that the future of sales will not be shaped by humans or by AI, but rather by the power of both working together.” AI as a Job-Shaper, Not a Job-Taker The report also highlights a shifting narrative around AI and the workforce: that AI is viewed less as a threat and more as a catalyst for transformation. When asked about the three-year impact of AI, 43% of respondents said they expect it to transform jobs without reducing headcount, making it the most common outlook. Only 28% anticipate job eliminations, while 21% foresee new revenue roles being created. Just 8% predict minimal impact. As revenue professionals increasingly implement AI technologies in their day-to-day activities, they are seeing its transformative power on their roles. In fact, leaders are prioritizing productivity and output of existing teams, with productivity now ranked as the number one growth strategy for 2026, up from fourth place last year. Key areas of change include: Reduced administrative time, like data entry, note-taking, CRM updates emerging as the top-ranked impact More customer-facing capacity, enabling more calls, meetings, and outreach Greater strategic and creative focus, such as account planning and deal strategy Better data-driven decision-making, driving engagement among revenue leaders AI Becomes a Strategic Partner in Revenue Growth Seven in ten enterprise revenue leaders now trust AI to regularly make business decisions, underscoring AI’s shift from experimentation to expectation. In 2025, the number of US companies using AI to forecast and measure strategic success increased 50% year over year. Teams using revenue-specific AI solutions were twice as likely to leverage AI for forecasting and predictive modeling, driving outcomes beyond what general-purpose tools delivered, including: 13% higher revenue growth 85% greater commercial impact Sales Teams Using AI More Win More Organizations that have boldly embraced AI within their core business use cases capture more value from their investments than those further behind or more surface-level in their deployments. Teams that deeply leverage AI generate 77% more revenue per representative – a six-digit increase over those that do not use it. AI Adoption in the US vs. UK Companies in the UK lag those in the US by about 12-18 months when it comes to AI adoption. United States: AI adoption continues to accelerate, with 87% of US companies now using AI and an additional 9% planning to adopt it within the next year. United Kingdom: UK adoption in 2025 looks very similar to US findings from last year’s report, with 70% currently using AI, with another 22% planning to in the next 12 months.

Methodology: Insights from The State of Revenue 2026 are based on a combination of survey and proprietary data. Gong surveyed 3,048 global revenue leaders, with respondents based in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and Germany.
