TL;DR

  • An AI field sales discovery console prepares reps with context, questions, and compliance checks ahead of meetings.

Key takeaways

AI Field Sales Discovery Console

Field sellers juggle regional insight, customer history, and product updates. The AI field sales discovery console compiles that context into one workspace. Reps arrive prepared, compliant, and ready to uncover value.

McKinsey’s 2024 B2B Growth survey noted that data-backed discovery conversations increase win rates by 18% (McKinsey, 2024). The console ensures every meeting delivers that edge.

Why build an AI field sales discovery console

Reps need live context: usage trends, open tickets, competitor movements, and industry news. The console pulls from Product Brain, your partner activation scorecard, and churn signal mining AI.

Console architecture and workflow

How does the console work daily?

  1. Ingestion: Pull data via APIs into Product Brain. Agents standardise formats and apply governance via Approvals Intelligence.
  2. Summaries: LLM-generated briefs highlight key metrics, open issues, and recommended questions.
  3. Distribution: Reps receive daily or pre-meeting digests via email, mobile, or CRM widgets.
  4. Feedback: Reps log discoveries, feeding the voice-of-customer alert system.
