How It Works · Buying Signals

Know what they want, before they ask.

Visitors rarely say “I am ready to buy.” They say “can you start next month?” Fred reads what people mean, not just what they type: intent, sentiment, and urgency, on every conversation.

What that means for your team.

Most chat tools treat every conversation the same: a transcript in an inbox, sorted by time. Your team reads twenty cold chats to find the one hot one. Fred does that reading for you, while the conversation is still happening.

The hot lead gets flagged

  • Buying language spotted and weighed, not skimmed past
  • Urgency read from the conversation, not guessed from a timestamp
  • Your team knows who to call first, with the reason attached

The right ask at the right moment

  • Contact details requested when momentum is there, with consent
  • The relevant page or product surfaced as interest builds
  • No form wall at hello, no lead lost at goodbye

The complaint never waits

  • Pricing questions, demo requests, and complaints routed by intent
  • High-priority conversations reach specific people or workflows
  • The angry customer gets a human, fast, with context attached

Every conversation becomes intelligence.

While they talk

  • 30+ intent categories tracked with confidence scores
  • Sentiment read as the conversation moves
  • Fred adjusts what it surfaces and when it asks

The moment they share

  • Contact details land in your CRM in seconds
  • Fast enough to respond while they are still on your site

Every conversation tells you who to call first.

Talk to Fred.

For the person who asks how.

What exactly does Fred track?

30+ intent categories with confidence scores, sentiment classification per conversation, and urgency. At session end, every completed conversation also gets a summary. None of that requires extra configuration; it is the baseline.

How does this feed the lead score?

The score is built in three layers: a heuristic score from 0 to 100, a signal breakdown your reps can read, and a written narrative explaining the number. The signals include buying language, engagement, urgency, and what Fred surfaced crossed with what the visitor did about it. Fred scores the conversation, not the browser URL, because when Fred is the navigation, the URL means nothing. The math is shown on every lead, not hidden behind a label.

When does Fred ask for contact details?

Through a consent step, and Fred reads the conversation to time the ask rather than demanding an email at hello. Consent capture is GDPR and CCPA aligned, and the moment details are shared they are in your CRM in seconds.

Can I route conversations by intent?

Yes. High-priority intents like pricing inquiries, demo requests, or complaints can route to specific team members or workflows. The routing rules are yours, and escalation to a human always wins when the moment calls for it.

Does sentiment change how Fred behaves?

Yes. A frustrated visitor is a routing decision, not a sales opportunity. Negative sentiment biases Fred toward de-escalation and handoff, and the sentiment is recorded with the conversation so your team sees the temperature before they pick up the phone.

Is there a deeper e-commerce module?

Yes. Stores that need product-level intent, like detecting when a shopper is comparing two specific items, can add the advanced e-commerce intent module. It is a separate capability for stores that want it, on top of the conversation intelligence every Fred already ships with.

Stop reading cold chats to find the hot one.

Fred reads every conversation so your team only reads the ones that matter. Live in about 20 minutes.
