Frequently asked questions

Does Parsley replace People.ai?

No. People.ai and Parsley capture different types of intelligence. People.ai tracks rep activities like emails, calls, and meetings. Parsley captures what prospects actually care about through AI chatbot conversations - intent that activity data alone cannot reveal.

Can Parsley work alongside People.ai?

Yes. Parsley syncs prospect intent data to your CRM, enriching the activity data People.ai already captures. Together, you see both what reps are doing and what buyers are thinking.

How is Parsley different from People.ai?

People.ai focuses on sales activity capture and coaching insights for revenue teams. Parsley gives reps AI chatbot profiles that engage prospects and detect MEDDIC buying signals - capturing buyer intent before the first meeting even happens.

What is the difference between activity data and intent data?

Activity data (People.ai) tracks what reps do - emails sent, calls made, meetings held. Intent data (Parsley) reveals what prospects care about - the questions they ask, the buying signals they share, and how ready they are to purchase.

Does Parsley require an enterprise contract?

No. Parsley has a free tier and flexible Business plans. You can deploy it in minutes without procurement cycles or long-term commitments - unlike most enterprise revenue intelligence platforms.

Who benefits from adding Parsley to a People.ai stack?

Outbound-focused sales teams. People.ai optimises how reps spend their time. Parsley adds a layer of prospect intent, so reps know not just who to contact but what those prospects care about before the first conversation.

How does Parsley's AI chatbot capture intent?

Each rep gets a profile with an AI chatbot trained on your knowledge docs. When prospects visit and ask questions, the chatbot answers naturally while passively detecting MEDDIC signals. Reps receive lead scores and Pre-Call Briefs summarising what the prospect cares about.
