From 30 Percent to 78 Percent: Bricklayer AI’s Q2 2025 Conversion Jump

Episode Summary: Gianna sits down and talks with Adam Vincent, founder and CEO of Bricklayer AI, about selling first and letting the market shape your message. After bootstrapping and shipping an MVP in summer 2023, Adam called (literally phone called) his way into product clarity and pipeline, then watched curiosity turn into urgency in Q2 2025. They get practical on where agents help today, so security teams finally use the tools they already pay for. You’ll hear: The words that make buyers lean in. Agents that handle alert triage, weekly intel briefs, and vulnerability prioritization. Meeting to SQO rising from about 30% (Q1 2025) to about 78% (Q2 2025). If you’re looking for buyer-tested phrasing, three practical agent workflows, and a simple outreach pattern you can run tomorrow, this episode is for you.
