This makes Lantern a leader in reshaping B2B sales and marketing in a data-driven era.

Our culture thrives on customer focus, relentless innovation, and bold, data-driven decisions that empower teams to own and deliver impactful results. We blend creativity with efficiency, constantly pushing boundaries and raising the bar for excellence. Vibe coding boosts team synergy and originality. If you’re eager to shape cutting-edge tech and scale proven strategies, join us in a dynamic, tech-forward space where bold ideas fuel progress.

Our purpose is to help B2B SaaS companies scale efficiently by unifying customer data, running 24/7 AI agents, and automating workflows that convert signals—from champion shifts to buyer intent—into actionable opportunities. Combining signal-based selling with enterprise-grade intelligence, we empower revenue teams for unmatched efficiency and stronger customer ties in a noisy digital landscape. Lantern’s innovation spans technology, culture, and problem-solving. Join us to work with state-of-the-art AI, reshape B2B sales, and drive lasting impact.
