- Similar to my other question. Will AI suggest/craft automation templates that make sense for you as a user/org?
- Hi! Thank you for bringing this up. This is something that we are currenlty working on and hope to be able to bring it to in the short term. More news to come.
- Let's say there is a staff member who's not the quickest in responding to customer enquiries, is there a way to use AI to notify this staff member / his inside sales person? We have plenty of sales staff on the road, and it happens pretty often that important emails get not the attention they deserve…

- Can you use AI to take details from leads, deals and persons notes and email to pull data into customized fields for data accuracy?

- Grouping Deals: is there an update to the grouping of deal card in the pipeline view
- Currently we're not considering adding grouping directly to Pipeline view. I'd encourage you to look into filtering as a workaround - create a filter for each group you're interested in, you can also pin the filters above the pipeline view for easy access and quick switching between the filters/groups.
- Is it also possible to make a summary of my notes or just of my email?
- Hi! Currently, there are no plans to add summarisation to notes, however, we will share the feedback without the product team.
- Is it working only in english? We would need it in german
- AI Email features are available in multiple languages. E.g. an email generator can generate an email in any desired language as long as you specify the language in the prompt.
- To match the search query and the specific app, we use the app description provided by the vendor. Since the majority of app's descriptions are in English - searching with other languages, unfortunately, won't yield exact results."
- Is it possible to customize different tonalities similar to the GPTs of openai?
- Hi! Currently you can choose the tone of the email while generating it from Pipedrive in the prompt window. Read more here ->

- AI products are great however Pipedrive customers would like the pain points that have lasted for years to be addressed. For example, the community is craving for adding an automatic follow-up reminder if a contact has not responded to your email.
- In case of email sent by Automation, it is possible already by using Instant conditions. In case of manual email - that is something we want to look into on H2 2024

- My biggest desire is to have a list of deals to follow-up on based on not receiving a response to an email. What's the best way to set up that automation? The activities feature is less useful to us at this point (capacity-issue)
- Automations can update deal status or custom field etc change for user to understand lack of of replies, if email has been sent out as part as Automation and followed by Instant condition for Email sent: Email has been replied to is False. But Automation cannot create a list.
- Can an Admin view the Sales Assistant on behalf of another user, say Salesperson?

- Can we use Automations with AI? With normal language?
- In the Campaings, can we use it too?" At the moment you cannot use AI in Automations or Campaigns. I am not fully sure of the answer, as it is not clear how user wants to use AI in Automations and Campaigns

- Will the ai be able to send reports each day on your deals?
- If it is meant to send via e-mail reports on a daily basis, this is currently not in the scope of the AI for the upcoming months. But we are eager to learn more on what type of information would be necessary to be sent on a daily basis and perhaps we could consider this in future.
- Do you use vector stores and embeddings if deals have files like PDFs to have more context knowledge?
- No we don't use this to process files on a deal but we do have vector storage and embeddings for other functionalities.
- Can it be used by all users or must privileges be configured?

- Will it be able to auto populate information in your pipeline from information in emails. For example closing date, cost, products etc.?
- Not yet but we are investigating this idea. It's likely that we wont fill fields directly, but propose these as potential inputs based on the threads so that users would still be in control.

- Can you view top 3 "next best action" or a list of recommendations?

- We are currently working on enhanced products reporting and revenue reporting to provide a holistic overview of revenue streams in one report type. Unfortunately, in the first phase, gross profit from the product is not yet in scope.

- We use Pipedrive not only in the sales team but to organise our consultants’ team. For the sales team the new feature (with the additional costs) would be a good invest but not for the consultants’ team. Thus, is it possible to choose more than one plan for the company?
- Hi! Unfortunately we currently support having only 1 plan per customer for all the users

- Do you need a threshold of deals for the AI tool to work well? Eg. XXX deals a month?
- Hi there, there is no threshold needed but we do need you to have previously won and lost deals in your account so that our AI can understand whether or not your open deals have similarities with these older won and lost deals and can validate the potential these open deals will have in comparison to your history.
- Is the pricing from the level below to professional quite a jump? That's the ONLY way to get AI on certain things?

- Can you, when you use the AI email writing, also have fields from the contact be integrated into the email
- Hi! Currently you can only add merge fields manually after the email is generated. We will transfer this feedback to our product team.
- Is there a way that AI can help out filling missing fields in Organizations or Contacts info. With automation, we can find missing info but it would be interesting that AI can provide this info instead of a human doing it! (AKA as Pipedrive policing in our Org!!)
- We are looking into this as an option. As the first iteration we probably can only give users suggestions which users can agree with, which would then (bulk) populate the related fields.

- Is an AI powered News & Intel monitoring on the table to provide a "Live News feed" for our ORG?
- Hi there, this is currently not in the plans. I'd love to learn more about the idea though. Is it meant to give news about your own Org or about all your customers so you could use this in any reach out to them?
- How to use our data in pipedrive to do AI machine Learning Training?

- Hi! Thank you for the suggestion, we will forward it to our product teams.
- We won't be able to feed our business knowledge base to AI?
- Hi there, this is currently not in the near term plans but an interesting idea nonetheless. We've noted it down in our idea backlog to consider for the future.
- Is this push towards AI also going to positively affect Automations? Or maybe, are you working on offering further options with those as well?
- We are considering how to apply AI for Automations, but no specific plans yet
- When I ask your AI to translate my email in english. nothing happens... comparing to chat gpt this does not work really well

- Is this tool installed already? I do not see it in the sales assistant
- Hi there, currently we need your company to be in the Professional plan or higher and have at least 2 deals won and lost in the past. If you then have open deals that have had some activities logged our Sales assistant can start working on them. One side note is that if the deals reviewed by our AI don't hit certain thresholds we won't notify you about them. So even if the previous points are met it could be that your specific deals don't hit certain criteria for us to point you to them.

- Doesn't this further remove the customer/sales person "relationship?" The "feeling" behind emails generated through AI, will be different from the "feeling" when Ingrid gets in front of the customer. This seems tough to overcome....right?
- Hi! Thank you for the feedback, we are currently working on improving the quality of the AI generated emails in Pipedrive, so that users would be able to adjust the tone and context and customize it to better fit their own style of writing.
- I don't have any suggestions in my sales assistant (but lots of open deals). What data is missing?

Just a quick suggestion: there should be an option to select what kind of summary I want. Really annoying to see "prospect is very positive to buy" when there's no convo about sales at all. Or when prospects didn't reply once to cold emails :) Just the summary of next steps would be enough.
The general salesy summary is more often useless than not, since we are trying to use this feature with the majority of the email convos. And those are not sales centric.
