Source trust note: Magnitude may be overstated. Vendor-reported results are subject to selection bias and survivorship bias — take direction, not magnitude.

What was built

Agentic email sequence personalization using company news + LinkedIn activity signals

Company type: Mid-market SaaS

Tier map

Tier 1 execution: behavioral conversion optimization

Human-in-the-loop design

Human reviews first-touch drafts; agent handles follow-up autonomously

Results

2.3x reply rate vs control; CAC -18%; 12hr/wk operator maintenance

Quality caveat: these results are vendor-reported — treat as directional signal, not precise benchmark.

Source trust

vendor-reported vendor-reported

This case is rated vendor-reported. The vendor has a direct commercial interest in presenting favorable results. Use these cases to understand direction (what kinds of improvements are possible) not magnitude (exact percentages).

Take direction, not magnitude. Vendor-reported results are systematically higher than independently measured equivalents due to selection bias, survivorship bias, and favorable framing.

Failure mode observed

Signal exhaustion: response rates declined 40% after 3 months as database was saturated

Transferable lesson

Key lesson: Personalization at depth (3rd touch+) compounds more than personalization at scale (1st touch).
