The Verdict

Highspot is the leader in sales enablement for enterprise GTM teams. Its agentic AI platform combining content, training, coaching, and analytics is unmatched, but it comes at enterprise pricing that puts it out of reach for smaller organizations.

Best For

Enterprise sales organizations with 50+ reps who need to manage, distribute, and measure the effectiveness of sales content

Not Great For

Small teams — the content management overhead isn't worth it when your 5 reps can just share files in Slack

Overview

Highspot is a sales enablement platform powered by Nexus™, a unified AI and analytics engine. It combines content management, training, coaching, and buyer engagement into one platform to help GTM teams fix what's broken and scale what works. Features include AI Role Play, always-on coaching, and embedded Agents.
