Guide section 01

Classify facts by confidence

Distinguish verified API data, verified public page data, CRM-provided fields and unconfirmed fields.

Guide section 02

Never convert absence into failure

A missing fetch result is not evidence that the prospect lacks a feature.

Guide section 03

Store provenance

Sources and timestamps make records auditable and easier to refresh.

Guide section 04

Build graceful fallbacks

When one provider fails, preserve the valid evidence from other providers instead of discarding the whole record.

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.

FAQ

Can AI replace the human sales process?
