Sales Playbook Generator
Auto-generate tactical sales playbooks from your won deal patterns.
Turn won-deal patterns into a tactical sales playbook your reps can use today. Schedule Trigger (quarterly) or manual Webhook. Fetcher paginates Pipedrive API for won deals over a 90-day lookback window with associated activities, notes, and contact data. Assembler reconstructs deal timelines extracting discovery questions, objections, competitive mentions, value propositions, closing techniques, and deal dynamics. Analyst receives ONE aggregate call — Sonnet 4.6 produces a 6-section sales playbook with evidence strength ratings. Formatter generates a Notion comprehensive playbook document with script examples, objection response frameworks, and benchmark metrics.
Four Agents. Six Sections. A Tactical Playbook From Your Won Deals.
Step 1 — Fetcher
Schedule + Code
Schedule Trigger fires quarterly (1st of quarter, 08:00 UTC) or manual Webhook for on-demand runs. Fetcher paginates Pipedrive API for won deals over a configurable 90-day lookback window with associated activities, notes, and contact data.
Step 2 — Assembler
Code-only
Reconstructs deal timelines from activities and notes. Extracts discovery questions, objections raised, competitive mentions, value propositions cited, closing techniques used, and quantitative deal dynamics (cycle length, stage progression, discount patterns).
Step 3 — Analyst
Tier 2 Classification
Sonnet 4.6 receives ONE aggregate call with all deal timelines. Produces a 6-section sales playbook (discovery_questions, objection_handling, competitive_positioning, value_propositions, closing_techniques, deal_dynamics) with evidence strength ratings: STRONG (5+ deals), MODERATE (3–4), EMERGING (2).
Step 4 — Formatter
Tier 2 Classification
Sonnet 4.6 generates a comprehensive Notion playbook document with script examples, objection response frameworks, competitive positioning guides, and benchmark metrics. Conditional competitor section toggle.
What It Does NOT Do
Does not review quarterly pipeline metrics — that is what Quarterly Business Review Generator does
Does not diagnose stalled deals — that is what Deal Stall Diagnoser does
Does not re-activate lost deals — that is what Lost Deal Re-Activation Agent does
Does not modify Pipedrive data or reassign deals — read-only analysis with Notion output
Does not scrape external websites — all data from Pipedrive API
Does not coach individual reps — generates a team-level playbook from aggregate patterns

Frequently Asked Questions
How does it differ from Quarterly Business Review Generator?+
Complementary products covering different outputs from your pipeline data. QBR generates a quarterly metrics dashboard — win/loss ratios, revenue totals, activity volumes. SPG generates a tactical playbook — specific discovery questions, objection scripts, and closing techniques extracted from your actual wins. QBR tells management how the quarter went; SPG tells reps what to say on the next call.
What are the six playbook sections?+
Discovery Questions — most effective questions from won deals, ranked by frequency and categorized by stage. Objection Handling — common objections and winning responses (price/timing/competition/authority/need). Competitive Positioning — win-against patterns and differentiators that resonated. Value Propositions — messaging that appeared in wins, ranked by frequency and persona. Closing Techniques — late-stage patterns: proposals, urgency drivers, decision accelerators. Deal Dynamics — quantitative benchmarks: cycle length, stage progression, discount patterns.
How does evidence strength work?+
Each pattern is classified by how many won deals support it. STRONG (5+ deals) means the pattern is reliable and repeatable. MODERATE (3–4 deals) means the pattern is emerging but needs more data. EMERGING (2 deals) means the pattern was observed but is too early to generalize. Evidence ratings help reps prioritize which techniques to adopt immediately versus experiment with.
Can I exclude the competitive positioning section?+
Yes. Set INCLUDE_COMPETITOR_SECTION to false in the Config Loader. The Analyst still produces the other 5 sections (discovery, objections, value props, closing, deal dynamics). Useful when competitor data is sparse or when the playbook is shared externally.
How often should I run it?+
Quarterly is the default (1st of quarter at 08:00 UTC). This provides a fresh playbook at the start of each sales quarter with enough deal data (90-day lookback) for meaningful patterns. You can also trigger on-demand via Webhook after a particularly strong month or when onboarding new reps.
Why is it $0.11/run?+
AGGREGATE architecture. Instead of analyzing deals individually, all deal timelines are assembled by code-only nodes and sent to the Analyst in a single call. The Formatter also receives one call. Two Sonnet 4.6 calls total regardless of deal count. 4 quarterly runs = $0.44/year in LLM costs.
Does it use web scraping?+
No. All data comes from the Pipedrive API: won deals, activities, notes, and contact data. No web_search, no external data sources, no scraping. This makes the pipeline fast, reliable, and deterministic.
How does it differ from Deal Stall Diagnoser?+
Different deal populations and different purposes. DSD analyzes stalled deals to diagnose why they are stuck. SPG analyzes won deals to extract what made them succeed. DSD is diagnostic (what went wrong); SPG is prescriptive (what to replicate).
Is there a refund policy?+
