Goal

Prioritize the right waitlist signups and prepare founder-style outreach grounded in who they are and why they may care.

What Nex will do

1. Connect or import the actual signup source and resolve each person and company. 2. Infer and confirm the qualification model from the product, ICP, and successful customer evidence. 3. Enrich only missing fields that materially improve the decision. 4. Rank signups with reasons, create linked records for the approved cohort, and suppress ineligible people. 5. Draft personal founder or team outreach and route it for review.

Best for

Founders and growth teams with more waitlist signups than they can research personally.

What you will get

• A deduplicated and explainably ranked waitlist cohort. • Linked People and Companies for the approved segment. • Personal founder-style outreach drafts and clear routing decisions.

What you will need

• The real signup source and the fields, cohort, exclusions, and response SLA in scope. • A confirmed ICP, offer, sender identity, and writing voice. • Optional enrichment or Gmail access only when it materially improves the result.

Approvals and control

Nex requires approval for paid enrichment, canonical record writes, cohort routing, and external outreach. It never fabricates why a signup joined or over-enriches low-value records.

Who this is for

Designed for founders, revenue leaders, and go-to-market teams that want a reviewable waitlist qualification & founder outreach workflow grounded in their own organizational context.

When it runs

When a new waitlist signup or imported waitlist cohort enters an approved source.

How the workflow works

Ingest signup → qualify → enrich only where useful → create linked People and Company records → segment cohort → draft founder or team outreach for review.

Inputs and prerequisites

Connect the relevant systems, define the approved data scope and success criteria, and assign a human owner for review. The workflow should not run on data or channels the team has not authorized.

Typical inputs include HubSpot, Salesforce, Attio, Gmail, Outlook; the team’s ICP, voice, playbooks, and approval rules; and the source records needed for this specific run.

Outputs

The agent returns a sourceable result, its reasoning and evidence, linked Nex records or proposed updates when relevant, and approval-ready drafts or next actions. For this agent, the core flow is: Ingest signup → qualify → enrich only where useful → create linked People and Company records → segment cohort → draft founder or team outreach for review.

Approvals and safeguards

Uses the user’s real signup source and applies proportionate enrichment. Cohort selection and outreach require review.
