Original Summary
Day 9. No outreach today. I spent the whole day on one question I'd been avoiding: who is this actually for? What I found out For nine days I've been telling founders "an AI agent for your SaaS". That is a category, not a customer. An AI agent inside an app sounds cool, and I love the idea, but I had never tested the things that decide whether anyone pays: do founders need this, how urgently, and how much would they pay. I'd also never tracked the metrics that would prove it works: user satisfaction, churn, how much more people use the product with an agent in it. So I stopped pitching it to everyone, and I'm going deep instead. The agent does the most for products with complex workflows and lots of admin operations, where users get stuck and ask for help. I narrowed to three kinds of product: Niche CRMs (27 companies) Scheduling and booking systems (27) Project management and operations tools (46) I spent about eight hours in a research session and ended up with 100 qualified companies, split across the US (48), the UK (27), Canada (14) and Australia (11). Each has public evidence of real customers and is mostly B2B. Each one is scored, with its decision maker and the best way to reach them: LinkedIn for 77, X for 12, a published work email for 11. I'm not counting an email I found as a contact until I've checked it. Tomorrow is the real test: cold DMs, cold emails and calls to these 100, tracked by niche and country, so I can see which one answers first. Before and after: my website copy Right now my homepage says: "Anything your product can do, your users can now just ask for. Verb gives your product its own AI agent, built around what your product already does." That reads like a chatbot, and I've also been leading with the confirmation card, which is a feature and not a reason to buy. Here's the version I am thinking to replcace the current version: "Your users ask. Your SaaS gets it done. Give your SaaS a production-ready AI agent that completes real tasks using your existing APIs. Users just describe what they need, and AskVerb handles the steps with their existing permissions, approval before any change, and an audit log. Set up in 15 minutes." I'm still working on it, and I'd like your honest opinion: is "your users ask, your SaaS gets it done" clear to a founder who has never heard of this? Is the "before" actually better and I'm overthinking it? Anything missing, or anything that sounds like a claim you wouldn't believe?
