Winnipeg, Canada - November 11, 2025 / OutreachGenius /
OutreachGenius, a venture-backed artificial intelligence firm revolutionizing customer engagement in home service industries through advanced voice automation, has successfully obtained a $200,000 investment during the DMZ's Black Innovation Summit, which took place in Toronto on October 30, 2025.
This funding signifies a significant achievement for OutreachGenius, establishing the company as a frontrunner among Canada's up-and-coming AI startups that are concentrated on practical, revenue-generating automation solutions. The Summit, organized by Toronto Metropolitan University's DMZ, allocated a groundbreaking total of $400,000 CAD to Black-led startups, marking it as the largest event of its kind in the history of the accelerator.
Empowering Home Service Businesses with Practical AI
Founded by David Owasi and Pasha Khoshkebari, both experienced software engineers and entrepreneurs, OutreachGenius was developed from their direct experiences in managing and scaling home service franchises. David, a former owner of a College Pro Painters franchise, and Pasha, an engineer with extensive knowledge in AI system design, are dedicated to assisting contractors and franchise operators in achieving growth through automation that delivers measurable outcomes.
The platform enables service businesses to automate both inbound and outbound calls using AI voice agents that mimic human interaction, effectively engaging leads, qualifying potential customers, and scheduling appointments automatically.
"Our mission is straightforward," stated David Owasi, Founder and CEO of OutreachGenius. "We assist home service companies in recovering lost revenue due to missed calls and delayed follow-ups. This investment allows us to enhance our AI platform and simplify access for everyday business owners to utilize voice automation that genuinely boosts sales."
AI Voice Agents: The Next Frontier of Customer Engagement
The AI voice technology developed by OutreachGenius is specifically tailored for sectors reliant on immediate customer interactions, such as plumbing, HVAC, painting, and landscaping. The platform's voice agents seamlessly integrate into business operations to:
Generate demand by re-engaging previous leads from CRMs,
Capture demand by providing instant responses to incoming calls and online inquiries, and
Enhance demand by automating follow-ups and customer retention processes.
Initial users have reported significant outcomes, including elevated booking rates and increased revenue per estimate. In one documented case, a franchise partner utilizing OutreachGenius's AI saw a 22% rise in revenue per estimate due to improved response times and consistent follow-up efforts.
Recognition from Canada's Leading Startup Accelerator
The DMZ's Black Innovation Summit convened over 400 attendees, including founders, investors, and leaders from the ecosystem to honor Black entrepreneurship and innovation. The $200,000 investment in OutreachGenius is among the largest individual awards presented at the event, supported by DMZ Ventures, Tribe Network, and Capital M Ventures.
"Securing a win at the DMZ's Black Innovation Summit affirms the value of what we are building," Owasi remarked. "AI should transcend being just a buzzword - it must serve as a genuine tool that empowers business owners to grow. This acknowledgment provides us with the platform to continue demonstrating that."
Looking Ahead
OutreachGenius intends to utilize the investment to enhance its AI voice infrastructure, broaden its collaborations with franchise brands, and further refine automation workflows specifically designed for home service businesses throughout North America.
The company is currently in the process of raising an additional $1 million USD SAFE round to expedite hiring and product development as it continues to cater to an expanding customer base.
