ABOUT DORDY YIELCINE
I\'m an SDR at Ken AI, where we help B2B companies book more qualified meetings through AI-powered cold email. Ken AI has sent over 10 million emails in 2025 and consistently delivers 4x the reply rates and 8x the meetings per 10k contacts compared to the industry average. My job is to connect with founders and sales leaders who are ready to stop guessing with their outbound and start seeing real pipeline results.What makes Ken AI different from every other cold email tool or agency is the approach. Human copywriters craft words of campaign messaging first - then AI is trained to replicate each client\'s voice at a level that feels genuinely personal. Every email gets pre-checked through a replicated Gmail spam algorithm before it sends. And our targeting isn\'t basic filters - it\'s AI qualification against a 500M+ B2B leads database that can find \"developer tool companies with bad onboarding docs\" or \"SaaS brands that just launched a new product.\" That level of precision is what turns cold email from spam into conversations.Ken AI also runs proprietary email servers on dedicated IPs (not white-labeled tools), triple-verifies every email address, and handles 70% of replies automatically with AI. The infrastructure is built from the ground up to maximize deliverability and response quality.Before Ken AI, I spent years in developer relations and community building at companies like Ohara, AskUI, Ministry of Testing, and Reddit. I know what it takes to earn attention in crowded spaces, build genuine connections, and communicate technical value in ways that resonate. That community-first mindset is exactly what great outbound requires - starting real conversations, not blasting inboxes.
