Highspot and Seismic announced they have signed a definitive agreement to merge, bringing together two leading enablement platforms in a deal designed to support the evolving needs of modern revenue organizations.
The agreement, announced February 12, 2026, will combine the companies’ platforms and customer bases under a shared vision to reimagine and accelerate performance for revenue teams navigating increasingly complex go-to-market challenges.
The transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Until the deal closes, both companies will continue operating independently. Following completion, the combined company will operate under the Seismic brand and be led by Seismic Chief Executive Officer Rob Tarkoff. Highspot Founder and CEO Robert Wahbe will join the board of directors of the combined company.
Private equity firm Permira, which has invested in Seismic since 2020, will remain the controlling shareholder after closing.
The combined organization intends to deliver a comprehensive AI-powered platform spanning enablement, content, learning, coaching, analytics, and insights across the full revenue lifecycle. The companies said the merger will accelerate innovation by combining their respective AI-driven capabilities to deliver greater value to customers.
After the transaction closes, the combined company plans to invest further in AI-powered capabilities aimed at improving productivity, execution, and consistency across sales, marketing, customer success, and other revenue-generating teams.
