Start wherever you are

Bring a deal, a handover, or a rough idea of your onboarding process. Your agent helps you find the next useful step.

Start with your AI assistant. Connect tools when needed.

Fictional example

You

Studio North has signed up for our handover tool. I want onboarding to feel connected to what we discussed in sales.

Agent

What did they say they wanted to achieve first?

You

Their delivery lead wants one real project to start with the client commitments from sales in the brief.

One possible plan after reviewing the agreed scope and first customer goal together

Draft plan · customer confirmation pending

Start with one real handover.

Help Studio North use its next suitable project to check whether delivery receives the commitments agreed during sales.

First goal: The delivery lead can review a real project's client commitments before work starts and flag anything missing.
Proposed path: Confirm the project and scope → collect the agreed commitments → prepare the handover brief → review it with the delivery lead.
Suggested handoff: Ask sales to share the agreed scope, relevant promises, and unresolved questions. Confirm who will coordinate the customer's onboarding.

What we know

In this example, the customer named a complete first handover as the outcome they wanted.

Still to confirm

The signed scope, suitable project, permissions, participants, owners, and timing have not yet been checked.

A next step to agree

Choose a suitable project with the customer and confirm what must be in its handover brief.

Context & open questions

Milestones: Scope and first project confirmed; source commitments gathered; draft handover prepared; customer review completed.
Dependencies: Access to the relevant sales commitments and a delivery lead who can check the brief. Do not assume a CRM integration or data import is needed.
Ownership & timing: Sales, onboarding, and the delivery lead have proposed roles only. Assign named owners and dates together.

Your result will reflect your conversation. Keep it in your assistant or a document you choose.

How the tools fit together

01
Agreed context
Customer goal, sales handover, and scope.
02
Your agent
Clarify the first outcome and dependencies.
03
Onboarding plan
Review milestones, responsibilities, and next steps.

Choose tools together. Execution depends on the connections and actions available in your assistant.

Read the full guide

Start wherever you are

A closed deal, sales notes, an existing onboarding plan, or a process you want to improve is enough.

Figure it out together

Understand the handover
Review the customer goal, agreed scope, relevant sales promises, stakeholders, and constraints.
Choose a first outcome
Agree on something useful to the customer and how you will know it has happened.
Shape the plan
Draft milestones, dependencies, and proposed responsibilities, then confirm ownership and timing together.
Prepare the next step
Keep unresolved questions visible and agree what should happen before the plan becomes operational.

Tools and connections

Your AI assistant: Coach the conversation and draft the plan.
Capable, if connected: Review available deal and customer context through supported records.
Your agreement or handover document: Check the scope and promises that should shape onboarding.
Your task or calendar tool, if needed: Create only the agreed tasks or meetings after you choose to proceed.

What you’ll keep

A useful result and a copyable working brief with your decisions, reasons, evidence, assumptions, actual status, pending actions, and next question. Bring it back when you’re ready to continue.

A useful first outcome

A customer-focused onboarding draft with a first goal, milestones, dependencies, and clear decisions still to confirm.

When to revisit it

When the agreed scope, customer goal, project, participants, or delivery constraints change.

Copy into your AI assistant to begin

Help me turn a closed deal or sales handover into a practical onboarding plan through a guided conversation.

First read the context I have supplied. If there is no deal, customer situation, or process to work on, ask: "Which customer or onboarding situation would you like to work on?" If I have already described it, acknowledge what you understand and ask the next useful unanswered question. If I bring an existing plan or working brief, reuse it, check what changed, and start with my stated concern. I do not need a complete handover or connected CRM to begin.

Understand what the customer is trying to achieve, the agreed scope, relevant sales promises, stakeholders, and constraints. Distinguish signed commitments from discussion notes and internal assumptions. Identify conflicting or unclear promises for review; do not silently turn them into delivery commitments. Check source freshness where records are involved.

Help me choose a first customer outcome and the evidence that would show progress. Do not default to a feature tour, integration project, or standard timeline. If the outcome is uncertain, propose a small provisional starting point and help me confirm it with the customer.

Draft a plan around that outcome: milestones, what each step produces, dependencies, required access, handoffs, and unresolved questions. Suggest roles when useful, but do not treat an owner, deadline, meeting, or customer commitment as agreed until it is. Separate work that can start from work blocked by missing scope, access, or confirmation. Reuse any suitable existing process and adapt only what matters.

Help me decide what the sales-to-onboarding handoff must contain and what still needs clarification. Before execution, review the plan's scope and any proposed customer communication or record changes with me. A draft plan is not evidence that onboarding has happened.

Ask one clear question at a time and adapt to my answers. Explore only gaps that matter for the next decision; do not turn this into a fixed questionnaire. Explain why a question matters when useful. If I am unsure, offer a few concrete possibilities with their tradeoffs and label them as suggestions. Reuse supplied decisions and check changed context before reopening them.

Give me a useful provisional draft as soon as the context supports one. Label assumptions and incomplete fields. Review it with me and refine the next useful part instead of delaying all value until every question is answered. Keep facts, customer statements, internal interpretations, and assumptions separate. Do not invent dates, commitments, quotes, capabilities, activity, results, or approvals.

We can start in this conversation without connecting anything. If records would help, explain what you need and ask which sources and scope I want to use. Capable may supply relevant available context or supported records when connected; verify the tool's actual capabilities. Use other connected tools only where relevant and authorized. A missing record is a gap to investigate. Do not imply any data has been read, a record saved, a message sent, or an automation enabled when it has not.

Keep a reusable working brief and offer a clean copy before we pause. Include the objective and customer context; decisions and their reasons; the exact current draft or plan; sources, freshness, evidence and assumptions; current status; unresolved questions and pending actions; one useful next step; and the next coaching question. Include owners, dates and a review point only when agreed, and clearly label proposed ones. Review the brief with me.

Keep the brief in this conversation unless I choose another place. Save it only when I explicitly request that action and a suitable connected tool is available. Do not imply that Capable or another chat automatically remembers it. Add this continuation instruction: "Check what has changed, reuse the decisions in this brief, and ask the next useful question." Pasting a brief supplies context, not permission to act. Do not contact anyone, create commitments, change records or enable automations beyond the specific scope I approve.
