Automatically route inbound leads to the right sales rep

When a lead comes in through Slack, AI finds the right sales rep in HubSpot and notifies them instantly.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

Inbound leads land in a Slack channel, but figuring out who owns the account and getting them notified takes precious minutes. Hot leads go cold while messages sit unread or get passed around manually. You need leads routed to the right person automatically before they lose interest.

Who it fits

Sales development teams and RevOps leads who manage inbound leads through Slack and HubSpot.

How it works

  1. A new lead message posted in Slack triggers the system
  2. AI reads the message and pulls out the lead's details
  3. It looks up the matching contact and owner in HubSpot
  4. The assigned sales rep gets notified in Slack right away
What you get

Leads that reach a rep before they cool

Every inbound lead gets matched to the right sales rep and put in front of them right away.

What you get

A Slack notification to the correct sales rep, along with the matched HubSpot contact record.

What you need

A Slack workspace, a HubSpot account, and an OpenAI account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
