Brighton AI Startup Gains Recognition for B2B Marketing Tools and Rapid Business Growth


A fast-rising AI startup from Brighton is gaining national attention after securing a place in the UK StartUp Awards 2026. Launchyfi, an emerging MarTech innovator, has been named a regional finalist in the Business to Business StartUp of the Year category, an achievement that underscores its rapid growth and industry impact.

Transforming B2B Marketing with AI

Founded in 2025, Launchyfi has quickly positioned itself at the forefront of AI-driven marketing technology. The company develops advanced tools that enable B2B sales and marketing teams to create personalised go-to-market campaigns in just minutes.

By combining automation, data insights, and AI capabilities, Launchyfi is helping businesses streamline operations and improve efficiency in an increasingly competitive digital landscape.

A Vision for the Future of Revenue Teams

CEO and co-founder Kirolus Ghattas believes the recognition reflects a broader shift in how companies approach growth and customer engagement.

“Being shortlisted is an exciting milestone, but more importantly, it validates the shift we’re seeing in how businesses go to market,” he said.
“We believe AI will fundamentally reshape how revenue teams operate, and it’s great to see that vision starting to be recognised.”

Rapid Growth and Market Traction

Launchyfi’s early success has been remarkable. Within just nine weeks of launch, the company built a $700,000 sales pipeline and is on track to generate $200,000 in annual revenue by the end of April 2026.

This rapid traction highlights the growing demand for AI-powered marketing solutions, particularly in the B2B sector where efficiency and personalization are critical.

Competing on the National Stage

The UK StartUp Awards celebrate innovative businesses across ten regions, recognizing those driving economic growth and job creation. Launchyfi now moves forward to the regional finals, with the opportunity to represent the South East at the national final during Ideas Fest in September 2026.

The competition is fierce, with more than 900 shortlisted startups collectively generating over £150 million in annual sales and creating nearly 5,000 jobs.

A Startup to Watch

As Launchyfi continues to scale, its focus remains on redefining how businesses approach sales, marketing, and growth strategies using AI. With strong early performance and industry recognition, the company is quickly becoming one to watch in the AI startup ecosystem.
