Four Agents. Weekly Closed-Lost Scan. Reasoned Re-Opening Outreach.

Fetcher

Step 1Fetcher

HTTP

Weekly scheduled trigger pulls all Closed-Lost deals from Pipedrive aged 30–90 days. Extracts deal metadata, contact details, activity history, loss reason, and deal value. Deals outside the configurable age window are filtered immediately — no wasted processing on stale or too-recent losses.

Researcher

Step 2Researcher

Tier 1 Reasoning + Web Search

Opus 4.6 researches each prospect company via web search for condition changes since the deal was lost: new funding rounds, leadership changes, competitor exits, org restructures, and market shifts. Returns structured evidence with source URLs. No LinkedIn scraping — public news and company announcements only.

Analyst

Step 3Analyst

Tier 1 Reasoning

Opus 4.6 scores each deal on Re-Activation Potential (RAP) across 4 weighted criteria: Condition Change Signal (35%), Original Deal Quality (25%), Relationship Warmth (20%), and Timing Alignment (20%). Deals below the configurable RAP threshold are filtered — only high-potential re-activations proceed to outreach.

Ghostwriter

Step 4Ghostwriter

Tier 1 Reasoning + HTTP

Opus 4.6 generates a personalized re-opening email that references the specific condition change, acknowledges the original loss context, and proposes a concrete next step. Creates a Gmail draft by default (rep reviews before sending). Configurable to auto-send for high-RAP deals above a second threshold.

What It Does NOT Do

×

Does not monitor active deals or deal movement — that is what Deal Intelligence Agent and Deal Stall Diagnoser do

×

Does not scrape LinkedIn or personal social profiles — public news only

×

Does not auto-send emails by default — creates Gmail drafts for rep review

×

Does not work with HubSpot, Salesforce, or other CRMs — Pipedrive only

×

Does not process deals lost more than 90 days ago — configurable window defaults to 30–90 days

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it differ from Deal Stall Diagnoser?+

Distinct products targeting different deal states. DSD monitors active deals that stopped moving — daily schedule, stall diagnosis, Slack digest. LDRA targets Closed-Lost deals already dead for 30–90 days — weekly schedule, condition-change research, personalized re-opening email via Gmail. Different inputs, different analysis, different outputs.

What qualifies as a condition change?+

The Researcher scans for 4 categories: new funding rounds (Series A–D, PE investment), leadership changes (new CXO, VP Sales, Head of Ops), competitor exits or failures (shutdowns, pivots, pricing changes), and org restructures (mergers, acquisitions, department expansions). Each finding includes a source URL.

How does RAP scoring work?+

Four weighted criteria: Condition Change Signal (35%) — strength and relevance of detected changes. Original Deal Quality (25%) — how far the deal progressed, deal value, engagement depth. Relationship Warmth (20%) — recency of last positive interaction, number of contacts engaged. Timing Alignment (20%) — fiscal year position, budget cycle, seasonal patterns.

Will it send emails automatically?+

No — Gmail draft mode is the default. The Ghostwriter creates a draft in the rep's Gmail inbox. The rep reviews, edits if needed, and sends manually. Auto-send mode is available for deals above a configurable RAP threshold, but must be explicitly enabled.

How much does each deal cost to process?+

ITP-measured: $0.26/deal blended average. Cost varies by research depth — deals with rich condition changes cost more due to web search and longer analysis. Deals filtered at the RAP threshold cost less (no email generation). A weekly batch of 20 Closed-Lost deals costs approximately $5.20.

Can I use HubSpot instead of Pipedrive?+

This version is built for Pipedrive. The Fetcher uses Pipedrive-specific API endpoints for deals and activities. The Researcher, Analyst, and Ghostwriter agents are CRM-agnostic — only the Fetcher would need rebuilding for HubSpot.

Does it use web scraping?+

Tier 2 disclosure: The Researcher uses web_search to find public news about prospect companies — funding announcements, leadership changes, press releases. No LinkedIn scraping. No personal data scraping. All sources are publicly accessible news and company pages.

Is there a refund policy?+
