What / Why / How

Sayso is a real estate technology company. Social media, referrals, and podcasts are core growth channels for client acquisition. We need someone who can learn fast, move quickly, and own outcomes. You will own our organic growth engine. This role is best for someone still in school who wants real startup experience.

Our first software product helps real estate agents have better phone conversations. We launched our founding user group in early January 2026. Time and consistency are our biggest bottlenecks. This role exists to keep momentum moving forward.

You will work closely with Kuvaal to turn ideas, voice notes, calls, and day to day work into content that gets published consistently. You will also help get that content and message in front of the right people through creators, affiliates, and podcasts.

Part of the role is deciding what content matters now versus later, which platforms deserve attention, and how to test and improve quickly. This is not a scheduler or assistant role. We need you to think, ask questions, and take initiative.

No one is tracking hours. This is not about hitting a forty hour week. It is about agreeing on timelines, communicating clearly, and doing what we say we will do. Some weeks will be lighter. Some weeks will be heavier. Reliability matters more than hours.

There is no budget for monetary compensation at this time. This is a very early stage opportunity focused on experience, learning, and contribution. When the company begins generating consistent revenue, compensation will be revisited. Expectations and timing will be discussed clearly and directly from the beginning. This role has a clear path to a future full time position and growth into Head of Social and Partnerships.

Kuvaal (Phoenix) Founder

Darby (Austin) Co-Founder & AI Expert

Franco (Buenos Aires, Argentina) AI Backend Developer

Lucas (Buenos Aires, Argentina) AI Frontend Developer

Background on Sayso

Sayso is a real-time sales performance platform. Development started in May 2025 with the original focus being B2B sales teams. The platform included:

• Cue - real-time prompts during sales calls

• Smart Capture - a smart notetaker that structures call data

• Recall - conversation prep and context before calls

The overall goal has always been to improve performance on sales calls while reducing friction in traditional sales training. Sayso secured a commitment to run a pilot with a PropTech SaaS company doing roughly $80MM ARR; however, enterprise-level vetting for a pre-revenue start-up was taking too long. 

In November, Kuvaal’s coach asked a simple question. What is the fastest path to cash? Kuvaal’s background is in real estate sales and team management. The same problems seen in B2B sales exist in real estate sales. Agents struggle with confidence, consistency, and knowing what to say during live conversations. The team decided to sprint toward real estate, so Recall and Smart Capture were temporarily cut to prioritize Cue for real estate agents.

SaysoRE launched on January 7, 2026, with a founding alpha group. The long term plan is to reintroduce Recall and Smart Capture.
