Instant Visual Credibility: Automatically embeds dynamic traffic charts and performance graphs directly into the copy, providing immediate proof of value.

Step-by-Step User Guide

1. Choose Your Entry Point

You can leverage the AI Outreach Agent across three core workspaces:

Option A: Inside the Sales Intelligence Web Platform Log into the platform and navigate to the sidebar menu: AI Engagement > AI Outreach.

Option B: Natively Inside Gmail. If you have the Sales Chrome Extension Installed, you can access AI Outreach in Gmail.  Open Gmail, click the extension interface directly inside your draft view, enter your contact details, and watch it pull real-time company insights to generate a tailored email ready to insert.

Option C: From the Extension Sidebar (Any Website, LinkedIn, or CRM) Open the browser extension while viewing any prospect's live website, CRM record, or LinkedIn profile. Click the AI Outreach button to instantly generate contextual copy based entirely on the account you are actively looking at. 

2. Configure & Generate

To get the most accurate and high-converting draft, refine the context before generating:

Select Target Company: Enter the domain of the target prospect.

Identify Recipient & Role: Input the contact's job title or persona (e.g., VP of Marketing or Director of E-commerce). The agent dynamically adjusts its terminology, tone, and pain points to align with that specific role.

Click Generate: The agent instantly evaluates Similarweb's database, spanning traffic spikes, competitor vulnerabilities, and technographics, to write a targeted narrative loop. 
 

3. AI Settings

In the top-right corner of the AI Outreach workspace, you'll find the Settings Cogwheel icon (⚙️). This gives you control over how the agent generates and formats your outreach. From here, you can configure:

• Default persona and tone preferences: set your preferred writing style (e.g., formal, conversational, concise) so every draft aligns with your brand voice from the start.
• Signature and sign-off options: define how you'd like your emails to close.
• Data focus preferences: choose which signal types (e.g., traffic trends, technographics, competitor movements) the agent should prioritize when building its narrative.
• Language settings: select the language for your generated outreach.

Updating your settings here ensures every subsequent generation reflects your preferences without needing to re-configure each time.

4. Refine, Visualize, and Send

Once your initial draft is complete, use the workspace features to perfect your message. Continue refining with the agent by adjusting the pain point, shifting the focus, or editing directly in the editor. 

Refine Draft Chat: Instantly steer the tone or angle. You can type instructions like: "Make this shorter," "Focus heavily on their mobile traffic drop," or "Make the tone more casual."

Review Generated Charts: Take advantage of the auto-generated visual graphs embedded in the text. These charts highlight concrete, undeniable traffic gaps that back up your pitch.

Deploy: Copy the final message block directly into your clipboard, or deploy and hit send seamlessly via your integrated Gmail extension.
