Spot at-risk sales deals in HubSpot before they're lost

The automation reviews deals and emails with AI daily, scores each deal's risk, and alerts your team in Slack.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; runs once per each open deal.

The problem it solves

Deals can quietly go cold while you're focused elsewhere, and by the time you notice a prospect has gone silent, it's often too late to save the sale. Digging through email threads for warning signs on every open deal isn't something you have time to do.

Who it fits

Sales teams managing an active pipeline in HubSpot who want early warning on deals losing momentum.

How it works

  1. Every day, the automation pulls your open deals from HubSpot
  2. It gathers recent email activity for each one
  3. AI reviews the combined activity to spot objections and disengagement
  4. Each deal gets a risk score and a suggested next step, saved back to HubSpot
  5. If a deal crosses your risk threshold, your team gets a Slack alert
What you get

Deals flagged with a risk score your team reviews

Your sales team gets an early heads-up on deals that are losing momentum, straight in Slack, so you can jump in and save them.

What you get

An updated risk score and next-step recommendation on each HubSpot deal, plus a Slack alert for the risky ones.

What you need

A HubSpot account, a Gmail account, an OpenAI API key, and a Slack workspace.

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.
