Async voice feedback for sales.
Stop chasing prospects for calls. Send a Magic Link after the demo or proposal. They pick voice note or booking. You qualify the deal without burning another hour.
The short answer
Why discovery calls turn into ghosted calendar invites
The rep sends the booking link. The prospect, who liked the demo fine, opens their calendar, sees a wall of meetings, and decides to deal with it later. Later becomes never. The deal does not die because the prospect lost interest. It dies because the next step was too expensive to schedule.
This meeting could have been a voice note. A 60-second answer from a phone, no calendar, no Zoom link, no preparation, tells the rep what they needed to know: is this real, what is the objection, when is it likely to close. The same prospect who ignored the meeting invite often replies to the voice ask within the day.
The honest part: not every deal fits. High-stakes contract talks, technical scoping, and final negotiations still need a live call. Async voice is the second touch, the qualification step, the moment where you replace the meeting that should not have been a meeting.
The workflow
Four steps. Slot it into your existing sales flow.
- 1
Send the link right after the demo or proposal
Within 24 hours of the meeting or the moment you send the proposal. The prospect still has the conversation in their head. Drop one Magic Link in the follow-up email with a single sentence: "If you'd rather skip the next call, leave a 60-second voice note here. If a call is easier, the same link books one."

Let the prospect choose their format
Voice note or calendar booking, same link. Most warm prospects who would have ghosted a meeting invite will tap record instead. The ones who actually want a call will book one. Either way, the silence ends.

Read the transcript and the AI summary
By the time you open your dashboard, the recording is transcribed and summarized. You see the objection, the buying signal, the budget hint, the timing. Sixty seconds of voice carries more qualifying signal than a 2-page email thread.

Reply in the format that fits the answer
Strong intent and a concrete objection: send a quick voice reply or book the next step. Vague signal: send a sharper question on a second link. No reply at all: that is a real disqualification, and you reclaim the calendar slot you would have wasted.
What lands in your dashboard
Every voice note shows up as three things: the audio file, a transcript, and an AI summary. The summary pulls the objection, the timeline mention, the budget hint, and the decision-maker reference into a few lines. You scan the summary first, then drop into the transcript or the audio when something is worth a closer listen.
Read five of these from one week of follow-ups side by side and the pattern shows up fast. The same objection from three prospects in a row is not coincidence, it is a positioning gap. The same hesitation about pricing is a packaging problem. Async voice does not just close more deals, it tells you why the others are not closing.
