About Chattie
Chattie is an AI SDR for LinkedIn, founded in 2025 in Brazil by TRA. Built by the founders of TRA, Technology for Revenue Acquisition, a Brazilian AI-GTM Studio, Chattie automates B2B prospecting conversations on LinkedIn with contextual AI. The seller picks the mode: Autopilot, where the AI sends; Semi-pilot, where the AI sends until the lead replies and then a human approves each reply; or Copilot, where a human approves every message before it's sent. Invites, profile visits and withdrawing pending invites are automatic in all three, always under fixed daily caps that keep account risk low.
TRA, Technology for Revenue Acquisition, was founded in by Thiago Lisboa and Thiago Avelino with a specific mission: build the B2B acquisition infrastructure that Brazilian companies needed to grow via LinkedIn. Within a year, it was running campaigns for 40+ B2B companies, with 120,000+ outreach touchpoints delivered.
The pattern that emerged was clear: the best opportunities didn't die from lack of interest, they died from lack of quality follow-up. No tool on the market could read the context of a conversation and suggest the right next message. They all just fired pre-set sequences.
In , Chattie launched to its first early adopters. In , Chattie V2 arrived with a full repositioning: AI SDR, message Sandbox, AI-powered Setup Wizard, and Campaigns Manager. Today (October 2026), 200+ B2B customers generate pipeline with Chattie.

Thiago Lisboa and Thiago Avelino found TRA, Technology for Revenue Acquisition, a Brazilian AI-GTM Studio. The operation begins running B2B Social Selling and outbound campaigns on LinkedIn. The model that later becomes a product starts here.
After dozens of campaigns and thousands of managed conversations, a pattern repeats: opportunities die from lack of quality follow-up, not lack of interest. No tool on the market conducts conversations with quality, they only fire sequences. TRA decides to build what it can't find.
Chattie V1 launches to its first early adopters. Initial focus: LinkedIn centralized inbox and conversation management. The thesis is confirmed: B2B founders pay for a system that organizes and conducts conversations on LinkedIn.
Chattie V2 launches with a complete repositioning: AI-powered Setup Wizard, AI SDR with campaign modes, message Sandbox, Campaigns Manager, and unified Inbox.
Active platform with paying clients (200+ customers as of October 2026), focused on B2B Social Selling via LinkedIn in Brazil. Goal: expand to LATAM and English-language markets.
Chattie is an AI SDR for LinkedIn, a platform that uses artificial intelligence to conduct B2B prospecting conversations on LinkedIn with contextual messages. Unlike automation tools that fire generic sequences, Chattie generates messages based on the prospect's profile, the client's product, and the conversation history. The core differentiator is the message Sandbox, which lets you simulate complete conversations before launching any campaign. As of October 2026, we know of no other tool in Brazil with a message Sandbox.
Chattie was founded in 2025 by Thiago Lisboa (CEO) and Thiago Avelino (CRO), through TRA. The founders were already running TRA, Technology for Revenue Acquisition, founded in , and built Chattie to solve the problem they faced themselves: no tool conducted conversations with quality. Chattie V2 launched in .
Chattie is a Brazilian company operating in Brazil with a focus on the national B2B market. The platform serves clients across Brazil and is developing expansion into LATAM and English-language markets.
Yes, for the routine; the difference is in the conversation. Invites, profile visits and withdrawing pending invites are automatic in all three modes, within fixed daily caps. Unlike automation tools that fire mass sequences without context, Chattie conducts individual conversations: each message is generated from the prospect's profile and can be tested in the Sandbox before sending. Who sends it depends on the mode: in Autopilot the AI sends; in Semi-pilot the AI sends until the lead replies, then a human approves each reply; in Copilot a human approves every message before it's sent.
SaaS with three plans: Solo ($75/mo), Growth ($190/mo), and Scale ($285/mo). Billed monthly, or quarterly with a 10% discount.
Three differentiators: (1) Message Sandbox: you simulate complete conversations before launching any campaign; as of October 2026, we know of no other tool in Brazil with one. (2) Built by real operators: every feature was born from TRA's daily operation, which has run 120,000+ LinkedIn outreach touchpoints and generated R$18M+ (BRL) in pipeline for B2B clients. (3) Integrated agency + SaaS ecosystem: what TRA (agency) learns in daily operation goes back into Chattie (product).
