Problem

Sales teams lose high value leads because researching prospects, drafting personalized replies, and coordinating meeting availability are all handled manually. Follow ups slip through the cracks as inbox volume grows, and the time it takes to research a lead, craft a tailored message, and propose suitable meeting times means opportunities go cold before the first conversation even happens.

Research accounts before outreach

On a set schedule, an AI agent works through the list of companies in the company database, picks up any that have not been researched yet, and runs live web research to gather the specific details the team asks for, judging what is relevant for each company as it goes. It compiles the findings into a consistently structured brief, creates a document for it, and writes the link back to the company record.

Draft personalized outreach for leads

On a set schedule, an AI agent picks up each lead not yet emailed from the lead list, runs live web research on their company, and pulls product positioning and proof points from uploaded knowledge files to draft a tailored subject and message guided by the rep's pitch direction. It writes the draft back to the lead record, sends it by email and marks the lead when sending is enabled, and skips any lead missing an email, company, or website with a note explaining why.
