Founder, ChannelRoute AI
Derek Allan Boman is the founder of ChannelRoute AI, a communications technology company focused on improving how outbound sales teams identify, prioritize, and connect with live prospects.
ChannelRoute AI is not another dialer. It is an intelligence layer designed to work with existing calling systems. The technology focuses on live-human detection, identity resolution, speaker recognition, channel selection, and faster routing of valuable conversations to human representatives.
Derek’s work grew out of a practical problem: sales teams waste enormous amounts of time waiting through unanswered calls, voicemail, bad transfers, dead air, and poor timing. ChannelRoute AI is designed to reduce that friction and help people spend more time speaking with the right person.
ChannelRoute AI develops systems for AI-assisted call intelligence and human-in-the-loop communications.
The company’s core areas of focus include:
Live-human detection
Speaker and identity recognition
Multi-channel call management
Intelligent call routing
Voicemail and nonproductive-call filtering
Human-in-the-loop sales workflows
Recovery and prioritization of missed opportunities
Integration with existing dialers, CRMs, and communication platforms
The goal is straightforward: improve the quality and timing of human conversations without replacing the people responsible for closing them.
Derek’s background includes outbound sales, search engine optimization, business development, legal research, and software product development.
His experience in high-volume phone sales gave him direct exposure to the inefficiencies built into conventional outbound systems. Rather than trying to automate the entire sales conversation, he began developing technology that helps human representatives reach the right conversations faster.
That business-first approach remains central to ChannelRoute AI.
Derek is the inventor of patented technology involving the management of softphone repositories and the establishment of communication channels.
His issued patent portfolio includes:
U.S. Patent No. 11,438,456
Techniques for Managing Softphone Repositories and Establishing Communication Channels
Additional intellectual property covers related communication processes and system workflows.
ChannelRoute AI continues to develop new applications around call intelligence, identity resolution, human-in-the-loop routing, and AI-assisted communications.
ChannelRoute AI is built to complement enterprise communication systems, not replace them.
Potential applications include:
Outbound sales organizations
Contact centers
Lead-generation companies
Insurance and financial-services teams
Home-services sales operations
Recruiting organizations
Appointment-setting teams
High-value business development groups
Dialer, CRM, and communications-platform integrations
The company is currently focused on product development, strategic partnerships, pilot opportunities, licensing discussions, and early commercial applications.
Derek is available to discuss:
The future of outbound sales technology
Why sales teams need less friction, not more automation
Human-in-the-loop artificial intelligence
Live-human detection
Speaker recognition and identity resolution
Call routing and communication intelligence
The limitations of conventional power dialers
AI as an intelligence layer for existing sales systems
Patents, product development, and founder-led innovation
Building technology from direct industry experience
The current sales-technology market is heavily focused on generating more activity. ChannelRoute AI takes a different approach.
The problem is not simply that teams need more calls, more automation, or more AI-generated outreach. The deeper problem is that too much time is lost between the initial attempt and the actual human conversation.
ChannelRoute AI is being built around that gap.
