Guide section 01

Normalize before enriching

Company names, domains, phones and locations should be cleaned and deduplicated first.

Guide section 02

Prefer deterministic facts

Use APIs and public pages for objective facts; use AI to summarize and interpret those facts rather than invent them.

Guide section 03

Timestamp volatile evidence

Ratings, review counts, hours and performance metrics can change. Store when the evidence was observed.

Guide section 04

Preserve provenance

Each important enrichment should retain a source so reps and managers can verify it when needed.

Guide principle

Keep evidence, ownership and the next action connected.

The strongest workflow is the one that lets the team understand why a lead matters, what happened, and what should happen next.
