How teams are doing this

Scenario: Personalized outreach for a B2B SaaS company The sales team spends 45 minutes per prospect researching and writing emails. The team builds an agent workflow: pull LinkedIn profile + company news + CRM history, generate a personalized email draft, route to the rep for review. Time per prospect drops to 10 minutes. Reply rates increase because emails reference specific company context.

Scenario: RFP response acceleration A consulting firm receives 200-page RFPs. The team builds a retrieval system over their library of past responses (500+ RFPs). For each new RFP, the agent matches questions to existing answers, drafts responses, and flags questions that need fresh writing. RFP turnaround drops from 2 weeks to 3 days.

Scenario: Content pipeline for a marketing team A marketing team needs 20 blog posts per month. They set up an agent-as-drafter workflow: PM provides topic brief and target keywords, agent drafts the post with SEO structure, writer reviews and adds voice. Output doubles without adding headcount.
