How to build an AI-powered sales workflow in Layer UI
Estimated time: 30 minutes · 6 steps
Founders running their own pipeline don't have time to manually enrich leads, draft follow-ups, and write pipeline updates for investors. Layer UI's AI handles all three. This guide configures the workflow.
- Step 1
Open the CRM and pick a pipeline
From the CRM module, pick or create a pipeline (e.g., 'Q2 Outbound').
- Step 2
Enable AI lead enrichment
In CRM settings, turn on 'AI enrichment'. New contacts auto-populate company, role, and a 1-line summary.
- Step 3
Set up AI follow-up drafts
Configure 'Auto-draft' on stage transitions. When a deal moves from Lead → Qualified, AI drafts a follow-up email for review (not auto-sent).
- Step 4
Connect Stripe Connect
From CRM → Integrations, connect Stripe. Closed deals can become Stripe invoices or recurring subs in one click.
- Step 5
Schedule a weekly AI pipeline summary
Enable 'AI weekly pipeline summary' in CRM settings. Every Monday Layer UI posts a one-paragraph update to a channel of your choice — useful for investor updates and team visibility.
- Step 6
Test the full loop
Add a test contact, walk it through the pipeline, verify auto-drafts appear, and confirm the Monday summary captures it.
Outcome
Founder-led sales runs on a 3-tool replacement (Layer UI vs HubSpot + Apollo + ChatGPT) for $12/seat instead of $200+/seat — and the AI does the parts you used to skip.
