Give each sales inquiry a brief and an owner
Turn an inbound request into a sourced sales brief, a relevant reply, and one owner action.
Recorded example · Read the desktop transcript · Read the mobile transcript
A sales inquiry can pass through a website form, an inbox, and a CRM without reaching an owner. This simulation turns the request into a useful handoff. The owner receives the customer question, source facts, and a proposed next reply. Records are fictional.
Fictional records. Actions stay in the simulation.

Open full demoHow Does the Example Work?
Cedar Solar asks about follow-up for 24 monthly inquiries. Its sample records show the website form, shared inbox, and CRM handoff.
Select Prepare the handoff. The result connects the request to its sources and gives Priya a relevant reply. Inspect the source fields before choosing Approve the handoff.
The local receipt records INQUIRY-204, Priya, and the next step: confirm the reply target with Cedar Solar. It sends no message. A real workflow must stop reminders when the customer replies.
Edit the request or try the incomplete example. The earlier artifact becomes invalid. Missing facts need correction before approval.
What Potential ROI Could This Produce?
At 60% adoption, this example releases 24 hours monthly. Assisted time includes human review.
Labor proxy: sales and related occupations. May 2025 BLS US means: $26.43/hour.
June 2026 US compensation supports a rounded 1.43 wages-plus-benefits factor.
| Input | Illustrative assumption |
|---|---|
| Monthly inquiries | 300 |
| Minutes, manual → assisted | 12 → 4 |
| Build and internal rollout | $6,000 |
| Monthly operations | $150 |
| Potential value | US example |
|---|---|
| Hourly wages + benefits | $37.79 |
| Monthly capacity value | $907 |
| Monthly net capacity value | $757 |
| First-year capacity ROI | 40% |
| Simple payback, months | 7.9 |
First-year cost: $7,800. Build assumes $5,000 service fees after credit and $1,000 internal rollout. Adoption is constant from month one. Slower adoption lowers returns. Long payback periods are mathematical extensions, not forecasts.
This scenario assumes 300 monthly inquiries, above Cedar’s sample volume. At 24 inquiries, existing CRM rules can cost less.
Released capacity is not automatic cash savings. These inputs are illustrative, not a Ship AI Studio quote. Internal support is included; optional $999/month AI Operations is extra. Use the ROI guide to replace assumptions.
What Needs Human Review?
The sales lead checks ownership, reply quality, and stop rules. Measure handling time, unassigned inquiries, and missed replies. Count closed sales separately. Existing CRM assignment and reminder rules may already solve the handoff.
Start with a Paid AI Assessment
Bring one inquiry path to the AI Assessment. We examine routing, ownership, reply rules, and actual workload. The $1,500 AI Assessment takes one week. Receive a process map, ROI estimate, and build plan. The result is a fixed Build Sprint scope or a reason not to build.
The fee is credited toward a $5,000 Build Sprint starting within 30 days. Review the AI Assessment scope.
