For CROs

You've got a bigger number and the same number of reps.

We help Chief Revenue Officers build an AI-native sales function: your targets, mapped to the processes and people behind them, with agents and skills on the steps that move the number.

The problem

Your reps spend three days a week not selling.

Call notes, CRM updates, account research and quotes take the hours before anyone gets in front of a buyer. Claude can take on that work, and the selling stays with your team.

60%
of a sales rep's week goes on work other than selling Source: Salesforce, State of Sales, 7th edition (2025)
94%
of sales leaders using agents say they're essential to growth Source: Salesforce, State of Sales, 7th edition (2025)

Work out your number

Reps × hours a week each spends on call notes, CRM updates, research and quotes × 52 = your team's selling hours a year that go somewhere else

Ask three reps to log one normal week. Count call notes and CRM updates separately from research, because each has its own agent.

What you're measured on

The numbers you're measured on

Every agent and skill we put in place is tied to one of these, and measured before and after.

Pipeline coverage
More qualified pipeline from the same team, with every inbound lead answered and every target account researched.
Win rate
Deals are qualified properly before they enter the forecast, and reps walk into every call prepared.
Average deal size
Account research finds the other teams and use cases in each customer before the proposal goes out.
Sales cycle length
Follow-ups go out the same day and proposals in hours, so deals don't stall waiting on your team.
Forecast accuracy
The CRM is current after every call, and stale deals get flagged before the forecast call.
Rep ramp time
New reps learn your sales playbook from a skill that coaches them on live deals.

One process, start to finish

Before and after: a discovery call

From the end of the call to the follow-up in the buyer's inbox, with the rep approving what goes out.

Before

  1. The call ends and the rep moves straight to the next one.
  2. Notes get written up at the end of the day, from memory.
  3. The deal in the CRM gets updated if there's time.
  4. The follow-up email goes out the next day.
  5. In the pipeline review, the manager asks what happened.

With Claude

  1. The call notes are captured as it happens.
  2. The sales operations agent updates the deal and drafts the follow-up.
  3. The rep reviews the follow-up and sends it the same day.

The Kowalah Way

How we do it

  • Start from your number. We map your bookings target to the processes and people behind it, and start where the return is clearest.
  • One process at a time. We put agents and skills on one process, measure it against your KPI, and move to the next once it's proven.
  • Your systems, your rules. Agents work inside Salesforce, HubSpot and the tools your team already uses. They start read-only, and you decide what they can send.
The first step runs in Claude: the Kowalah Plugin's process diagnostic, reading the process from your operating model.

Questions

What CROs ask first

How can AI help a sales team hit its number?

It takes on the work around selling: call notes, CRM updates, account research, proposals and pipeline clean-up. Your reps spend the hours they get back in front of buyers.

Is this for sales directors as well as CROs?

Yes. It's for whoever owns the number: Chief Revenue Officer, VP of Sales, Sales Director, Head of Sales or Head of Revenue Operations.

Should we buy an AI SDR tool?

If outbound volume is your gap, an AI SDR tool adds volume. We start one step earlier: which accounts to go after, what to say, and what happens to the replies, so the volume turns into pipeline. The tools you already have stay in place.

Which CRMs does it work with?

Salesforce and HubSpot, plus Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. A connector sees only what the person using it can already see.

Will agents send anything to customers on their own?

Only what you agree up front. The inbound agent replies to enquiries within the rules you set. Follow-ups and proposals start as drafts that the rep approves.

Do we need Claude or Anthropic to start?

No. We build on Claude by default, and on the AI your company already uses where that's the better fit.

What happens in the 45-minute session?

We take your bookings target and walk through your processes and team with you. You leave with a one-page plan: the first three processes to change, the agents and skills for each, and how your team changes.
