Why Nugget

The whole sale, in one record.

Stop rebuilding the deal

One record instead of a calendar, an inbox, a notes app and a spreadsheet.

Hear what the buyer said

Concerns, questions and promises, each pointing back at the words that prove it.

Every promise, dated

What you said you would do, with a date and the deal it belongs to.

A number you can defend

Pipeline less probability, less the risk you can already see.

Three questions

Every deal comes down to three questions.

01

What was promised?

Every commitment from the call, yours and theirs, with the moment it was said.

See it in the product
02

What happens next?

One dated next step on every live deal, and the follow-up already drafted.

See it in the product
03

Is this deal real?

A verdict on each call against what it needed to cover, so the number you report holds up.

See it in the product

Every sales call ends with a promise. A date, a document, a decision. Nugget keeps each one in front of you until the deal is won.

How it works

From the call to the next step.

Nine surfaces, one record.

Assessed Proposal Linden Group

A next step is booked for 4 August and no new risk surfaced, but pricing was discussed without the economic buyer on the call.

Discovery call · 22 July 2026, 14:00 · 38 min · Alex and Jamie

What was missed

2 of 6 criteria unmet
Economic buyer present signal

Only the technical evaluator joined. Pricing was covered anyway, so the number will be relayed by someone who cannot approve it.

Pain quantified model

The buyer described the problem three times and never attached a number to it, which is what the proposal has to be weighed against.

It just eats a lot of our week, honestly. Hard to say how much. 18:42

Ask Illustrative
Which objections came up most this quarter?
Read 10 calls, 3 accounts

Three objections repeat across the quarter. The first one decides more deals than price does.

Trust, after a bad experience

Your most recurring blocker. the operations lead at Harbour Partners described being burned twice by similar suppliers and named a specific loss. The issue was never price, it was the absence of a reference he could verify.

Benchmarking against alternatives

On the 15 May call, Cedar Works was openly running a parallel process, and the investors required a comparison before any budget was committed.

Pricing as an anchor, not a wall

Linden Group opened a conversation in the £1,800 to £2,200 range. It read as a negotiating position rather than a hard limit.

The revised implementation plan

Hi Dana,

As promised, the revised implementation plan is attached, a day ahead of Wednesday.

Onboarding starts on 3 November, inside the first year figure we discussed.

Would it help if I walked Priya through it? Thirty minutes is enough, and I can work around her calendar.

    A pipeline number you can defend.

    What the deals are worth, less the chance they do not land, less the risk you can already see. The working stays on the page, so you can explain it to anyone who asks.

    Most of the gap is probability, not risk. Of the $9K that risk takes off, overdue next steps account for all of it, and those you can fix this week.

    Wants to run the proposal past a co-founder. Unsure about time to start this month.

    Still unresolved

    2What makes getting started difficult?

    What the buyer said

    We like the proposal. I need to run it past my co-founder, and I am not sure we have time to get started this month.

    Questions

    The things people ask before they bring their first conversation in.

    Nugget works from the recordings and transcripts your meetings already produce, and you choose which meetings it reads. A call you exclude never reaches the record.

    No. The record builds itself from your conversations, so the first week is useful without a migration. You can bring existing accounts in later if you want the history.

    Write the outcome in one line and the deal updates the same way it would from a transcript. The next step, the stage and the timeline all move with it.

    In your own workspace, behind your sign in. Nothing is shared between workspaces, and you can disconnect a source at any time without losing the record it built.

    Yes. A workspace is shared, so everyone sees the same record of what was said and what was promised, without anyone having to write it up.
