Salesforce (CRM) Inks Agreement to Purchase Bluebirds

Salesforce, Inc. (NYSE:CRM) is one of the top stocks sold by hedge funds. On July 31, Salesforce announced an agreement to purchase Bluebirds, a leading AI-based prospecting platform that helps sales teams find and connect with valuable leads using smart data and lead insights.

Bluebirds' smart tech makes it more convenient for sales teams to find and reach the right leads quickly, helping them save time and work efficiently. Once the deal is done, Salesforce plans to add these tools to Sales Cloud and Agentforce so users can automate early sales tasks and get more done.

According to Kris Billmaier, EVP and GM of Sales Cloud at Salesforce:

“Every sales team wants to spend less time on busywork and more time closing deals. Bluebirds’ technology will help us deliver smarter, AI-powered prospecting that makes sellers more productive from day one, right inside the Salesforce platform.”

The Bluebirds team has expertise in sales data, artificial intelligence, and agentic systems, cultivated through years of experience at prominent technology companies. Their contributions are expected to advance Salesforce’s AI roadmap and empower clients to identify and capitalize on new opportunities through intelligent, automated sales processes.

The acquisition is targeted for completion in Salesforce’s fiscal third quarter of 2026, subject to the usual closing conditions.
