The problem

Where the time and money actually go.

SDRs spend time gathering basic context and writing generic outreach; enrichment errors and high-volume automation damage brand and deliverability.

Who feels it

Prospects, SDRs, account executives and marketing operations

Trigger to act: Pipeline coverage is below target, inbound response is slow, SDR capacity is constrained, or a vertical campaign needs higher-quality personalization.

Outcome & ROI

The result you can model before you sign.

Illustrative, replace with your data
$18,000
per month, illustrative

Illustrative only: 5,000 leads/month × 2 percentage-point incremental qualified-meeting conversion × $180 expected contribution per qualified meeting = $18,000 monthly pipeline value before downstream win probability.

The outcome, plainly: Research and qualify inbound or named leads, draft evidence-based outreach, and let sellers approve messages and account strategy.

The human gate

AI-Native, not autonomous. Judgment stays with your people.

The machine does the work; the human’s role narrows to the one thing that matters, judgment. That constraint is what makes it safe to deploy.

Non-negotiable human gate

Sellers approve outbound messages, qualification, pricing, claims, and account strategy; compliance controls govern consent, suppression, and jurisdictions.

What it will never do
No deceptive impersonation, fabricated research, spam, or messaging without lawful basis
No autonomous pricing/contract promise
No guarantee of pipeline
The scorecard

A scorecard, not a demo. We baseline what breaks in production.

Every deployment ships with an evaluation suite. These are the numbers we baseline before launch and monitor after.

Why this is safe to try
01Baseline first. We measure your current numbers before we build anything.
02Fixed scope, fixed price. One process in the pilot. No open-ended engagement.
03Expand only if the scorecard earns it. You see the measured result before committing to production.
04Your people stay in control. The human gate means nothing consequential happens without a person’s approval.
FAQ

Questions serious buyers ask.

Does the AI act on its own?

No. Sellers approve outbound messages, qualification, pricing, claims, and account strategy; compliance controls govern consent, suppression, and jurisdictions. The system drafts and recommends; a human approves every consequential action. Explicitly excluded: no deceptive impersonation, fabricated research, spam, or messaging without lawful basis; no autonomous pricing/contract promise; no guarantee of pipeline.

How do you stop it inventing facts?

Every material claim is grounded in an allowed source record and returned with its source identifier. The system separates observed facts, model inference, and missing information, and routes to a human whenever confidence is low, evidence conflicts, or an adverse outcome is possible.

What does it cost to run each month?

A usage bill of roughly $400 to $3,100 per month (10,000 to 35,000 workflow runs per month with modest document and model usage), plus a $2,000 per month managed retainer for evaluation, monitoring and maintenance. Your existing platform licenses are separate and already yours. Exact figures are confirmed during scoping.

Do we need a ChatGPT or Claude subscription?

No consumer ChatGPT or Claude subscription is required for the production workflow. You need an approved API/cloud billing account. Workspace seats are optional for internal prototyping and administrator access.

How is this different from Salesforce Agentforce?

Tools like Salesforce Agentforce, HubSpot AI, and Outreach are broad platforms you adapt to. This is a fixed-scope implementation tuned to your systems and rules, grounded in your data, with the human gate and audit trail built in, and a transparent price instead of a seat subscription.

How long until it is live, and how do we prove it works?

We baseline “Speed to lead” first, then measure against that baseline. You see the scorecard before expanding scope: the evaluation suite ships with the system, not as an afterthought.
