How does Close work for Lead Qualification automation?
Close works for Lead Qualification automation by powering a DeskFerry agent that runs the workflow end-to-end inside your existing tools — no code, no custom build.
- 01
Trigger fires
The agent connects to Close alongside the other apps your team already uses, watches for the triggers that matter for Lead Qualification, and takes the next step on its own while keeping a complete audit trail for review.
- 02
Score every new @Close inbound lead in @HubSpot against our ICP
Close + DeskFerry score and qualify leads around the clock, ensuring no opportunity is missed even outside business hours.
- 03
Push the top 10% to @Salesforce with a one-line rep brief
Teams typically see under 60s from inbound to first reply once the agent is in production.
- 04
You approve
You stay in control: every action is logged, confidence thresholds are configurable, and anything ambiguous is queued for a human instead of being silently auto-completed.
How you tell it what to do
Built in plain English.
You write the rule the way you'd describe it to a teammate. The agent reads the rule, breaks it into the actions it'll take, and confirms the apps it'll touch — before it does anything.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I run multiple Lead Qualification workflows with different Close triggers?
Yes. You can create parallel Lead Qualification workflows that respond to different Close events or conditions. For example, one Lead Qualification flow for new Close records and another for updated ones — each with independent rules and actions.
Can the Close Lead Qualification agent also work with other tools in my stack?
Yes. The Lead Qualification agent connected to Close simultaneously interacts with 1,500+ other apps — CRMs, databases, email platforms, and more. A single Lead Qualification workflow can pull data from Close, process it, and push results to multiple destinations.
How does Lead Qualification automation scale with increased Close volume?
The Lead Qualification agent scales automatically as your Close activity grows. Whether you process 10 or 10,000 Lead Qualification tasks per day from Close, the AI handles the volume without slowdowns or additional configuration.
How does Close data stay secure during Lead Qualification automation?
All data exchanged between Close and DeskFerry during Lead Qualification processing is encrypted in transit and at rest. We use OAuth tokens for Close access, never store raw credentials, and maintain full audit logs of every Lead Qualification action.
What signals does DeskFerry use to qualify leads for Close?
The Lead Qualification agent evaluates firmographics, intent signals, engagement history, and close-specific fit indicators — for example budget, timeline, decision-making authority, and the patterns that historically convert in close. You define the ICP and the agent scores every inbound lead against it within seconds.
