How the agent runs it

AutoCadence autonomously prospects mid-market B2B companies whose sales teams show declining win-rate signals (sourced via Gong and LinkedIn), pitches a tailored 90-day coaching program, schedules and delivers live Zoom training sessions with AI-generated role-play scripts, and collects payment via Stripe — all without human involvement. The CEO agent orchestrates weekly sprint cycles: intake new client cohorts, assign curriculum agents to build session content, dispatch coaching agents to run live sessions, and route outcome data back to the analytics agent for ROI reporting. Clients receive a Slack-connected performance dashboard updated in real time, reinforcing perceived value and driving renewal conversations handled entirely by the retention agent.

Who this is for

The ideal owner is a former B2B sales enablement leader or SaaS sales director who has 5+ years of quota-carrying or coaching experience and understands how to validate curriculum quality during the build phase. They need enough credibility to close the first 3 anchor clients personally, then hand the pipeline entirely to the agent team. This suits someone who wants to productize their domain expertise into a leveraged business without hiring a human delivery team.

Market opportunity

The global sales training market exceeded $4.6B in 2023 and is growing at 8% CAGR, driven by remote sales teams that need asynchronous and live coaching at scale. Gong, Chorus, and similar conversation intelligence platforms have created a rich data layer that makes AI-driven, evidence-based coaching finally viable — something human-only coaching firms cannot match on price or speed. Mid-market companies (100–1,000 employees) are chronically underserved by boutique sales coaches who lack bandwidth and by enterprise vendors whose minimums are too high.

Boss agent: CadenceCEO

CadenceCEO runs weekly business sprints by pulling KPIs from all sub-agents, resolving inter-agent conflicts (e.g., scheduling collisions between cohorts), enforcing quality thresholds, and escalating only pre-defined exception types to the human owner via a structured Slack digest.

  • No cohort launches without a completed Intake Brief and signed Stripe subscription — both must be confirmed by the IntakeOps agent before CurriculumArchitect is activated
  • Any client NPS score below 7.0 triggers an automatic retention intervention sequence by the RetentionGuard agent before the next session fires
  • No outbound prospecting message may be sent unless the ProspectScout agent has verified company headcount between 50–500 and an active Gong or Salesforce footprint in the CRM

The agent team

🤖
ProspectScout
Owns the entire top-of-funnel: monitors Gong partner ecosystem signals, LinkedIn Sales Navigator exports, and intent data feeds to identify and score mid-market B2B sales teams showing win-rate decline, then drafts and sends personalized outreach sequences via email and LinkedIn, routing warm replies into the CRM for IntakeOps to handle.
🤖
IntakeOps
Owns the sales-to-delivery handoff: conducts async discovery via structured Typeform-style intake, analyzes submitted Gong call samples to build a rep-persona matrix, generates a custom Cohort Brief, produces the Statement of Work, and triggers Stripe checkout — managing all prospect communication from first reply through signed contract.
🤖
CurriculumArchitect
Owns all training content creation: reads the Cohort Brief and Gong call transcripts to identify the top 5 skill gaps, then generates a 12-session modular curriculum including session decks, role-play scripts, objection libraries, and rep-specific homework assignments — updating content weekly based on LiveCoach session feedback.
🤖
LiveCoach
Owns synchronous delivery: hosts Zoom training sessions using a Claude-powered real-time facilitation script, runs AI-moderated role-plays where reps practice live objection handling against a simulated buyer persona, scores each rep's performance on a rubric, and generates a post-session rep report delivered to the client's sales manager within 30 minutes of session end.
🤖
PerformanceAnalyst
Owns client ROI reporting: pulls weekly Gong win-rate, ramp time, and pipeline velocity data for each enrolled rep, compares against pre-cohort baseline, generates a branded PDF dashboard, and publishes it to the client's Slack channel every Monday — feeding trend alerts back to CurriculumArchitect for mid-cohort content adjustments.
🤖
RetentionGuard
Owns post-cohort revenue: monitors NPS, session attendance, and rep progress scores to trigger personalized check-in messages, surfaces case study evidence of ROI to the economic buyer, drafts renewal proposals for the $1,200/mo ongoing tier, and routes any client showing churn signals to a human-reviewed escalation queue before the final session.
🤖
FinanceOps
Owns all billing, reconciliation, and financial reporting: manages Stripe invoice generation and retry logic, produces monthly P&L summaries for the human owner, flags any unpaid invoice after 7 days with an automated dunning sequence, and maintains a real-time revenue dashboard segmented by cohort, tier, and renewal status.

Human touchpoints

// the only things that still need you

  • 👤 Signing master service agreements and data processing addendums for enterprise clients who require wet or DocuSign signatures from a named legal entity officer
  • 👤 Approving ACH or wire transfers above $15,000 in the business bank account, which require two-factor human authentication under the bank's commercial fraud policies
  • 👤 Responding to genuine brand or reputational crises — such as a client publicly claiming an AI agent misrepresented coaching outcomes — where a named human spokesperson is legally and ethically required
  • 👤 Reviewing and approving any new curriculum module that touches legally sensitive topics (e.g., EEOC-compliant coaching language, financial services sales regulations) before it is deployed to a live cohort

Monetization

Clients pay $8,500–$22,000 per 90-day cohort (up to 20 reps) via Stripe recurring invoices, with a $1,200/mo retention tier for ongoing call-review and coaching after the initial engagement. Revenue scales by running 4–6 simultaneous cohorts with zero marginal labor cost.

Key risks

  • Enterprise procurement teams may stall mid-funnel requiring a human sales call to close deals above $25K ACV, breaking the no-touch model
  • Gong.io API access requires client-side IT approval which can delay onboarding by 2–6 weeks per cohort and compress monthly revenue predictability

Getting started

  1. 1
    Close three anchor clients before agent buildout
    Use your personal network to sign 3 mid-market B2B clients on a founding-member rate ($5,000/cohort) so you have real delivery constraints to architect the agent system around. This prevents building automation for hypothetical workflows.
  2. 2
    Map and document every delivery workflow manually first
    Run the first cohort 80% manually while documenting every decision, email, session agenda, and follow-up in a shared Notion workspace. These documents become the ground-truth prompts and memory stores for each specialist agent.
  3. 3
    Build and test the Gong intake and prospect scoring agent
    Connect Gong.io's API to a Claude agent trained on your manually-documented win-rate signals to auto-qualify inbound leads and generate a prospect brief within 90 seconds of CRM entry. This is the highest-leverage automation and proves the pipeline is viable before building delivery.
  4. 4
    Build the curriculum and session delivery agent stack
    Architect the CurriculumArchitect and LiveCoach agents using Claude Managed Agents with long-context memory of each client's call recordings, rep personas, and historical objections — then run a shadow cohort where agents draft all materials while humans deliver, validating output quality before going autonomous.
  5. 5
    Deploy the CEO orchestrator agent and remove yourself from ops
    Stand up the CadenceCEO supervisor agent with hard-coded escalation rules (flag any client NPS below 7, any invoice unpaid after 14 days, any Zoom session no-show rate above 30%) and spend 30 days auditing its decisions before reducing your weekly involvement to the defined human touchpoints only.
