Russ Martin, RampRight joins The Lantern to reinvent employee ramp up

Welcome Russ Martin, Co-Founder and CEO of RampRight on this episode of 🔥 The Lantern 🔥

RampRight is building the first Ramp Intelligence Platform, helping companies move from “activity-based” onboarding to data-driven proof that their teams can actually execute.

🔍 What problem is RampRight solving? 🔎

Most companies onboard new hires and launch products the same way. Watch a few recorded videos, have a buddy, and hope new hires ask good questions.

But none of that really tells you if someone can actually do the job. Russ and his team are replacing gut feel with pattern recognition delivered via AI, giving leaders real data on readiness, not just enthusiasm.

❄️ What makes RampRight unique? ❄️

RampRight is a structured execution layer for any change moment inside a company. That includes new hire classes, product releases, marketing campaigns, and promotions.

Their platform can tell you, with data, whether your team is ready to go. No more “they seemed really excited” as a success metric.

🤔 What has Russ learned from his time as a Revenue leader? 🤔

He’ll be the first to admit it, he missed badly early in his career overemphasizing enthusiasm and instinct instead of outcomes and data.

The insight that led to RampRight: companies spend millions hiring the right people and building great products, but nobody has a rigorous answer to “can they actually execute?” That blind spot is what Russ and their team is fixing.

🤝 How can we help RampRight grow? 🤝

Boston’s startup community is stronger than ever, and Russ and Co-Founder RJ Irving want to hear from it.

RampRight is free to use right now. Try it!

Kick the tires, tell them what you love, tell them what you don’t. The voice of the community is how they’re building this thing.
