How AI captures, validates and syncs leads

From phone call → qualified contact → instant follow‑up.

1) Capture & structure

AI gathers name, phone, email, postcode, service needed, budget and timeframe. It writes a concise call summary with intent tags.

  • Custom fields and sector‑specific prompts
  • Caller context (campaign/source, line dialled)
  • Auto‑format UK postcodes and phone numbers

2) Validate & dedupe

Email syntax and DNS checks; UK number patterns; optional postcode lookup. Dedupe by phone/email to avoid duplicate contacts.

  • Merge into existing contact with a new note
  • Flag partial data for human review
  • Blocklisted domains and throwaway emails

3) Score & sync

Apply a lead score (0–100) based on intent, urgency and fit. Sync to CRM/helpdesk/email via native connectors or webhooks.

  • Map fields to Contacts, Deals, Tickets
  • Assign owner/queue by rules
  • Trigger automations and journeys

Lead Capture & CRM — FAQs

Answers for UK teams connecting phone leads to their stack.

Can we customise fields per campaign or number?

Yes. Use per‑line forms and mappings. A sales campaign can collect budget and timeline; a support line can collect account ID.

How are errors handled on webhook failures?

We retry with backoff and keep a dead‑letter queue. You’ll see alerts and can replay once the destination is available.

Can we assign owners based on postcode or product?

Yes. Use routing rules at sync time to assign owners or queues based on postcode, product, score or campaign.

Do you support double opt‑in?

Yes. Send a verification link/SMS automatically. Consent status is updated in the CRM and your lists.

How quickly can we go live?

Same day for common CRMs. Map fields, add your disclosures and test a few calls — then forward your number.
