The brief
This is what shows up on a rep's desk.
Every brief follows the same structure. Every field traces to a source. Every recommendation carries a confidence level.
Prospect Brief · v1Tier 1
ACME Packaging Co.
Case packer manufacturer · Bloomington, IL · ~120 employees · Family-owned since 1987
Portfolio mapping
XR-200 Case Packer
→ Yaskawa GA500 · 5HP · 480V
PL-40 Palletizer
→ Schneider TeSys D
CX-Conveyor system
→ Rittal AX enclosures
Engineering insight
The XR-200's multi-servo design implies 480V 3-phase supply. GA500 with Safe Torque Off gives a clean path to SIL2. Recommend standardizing across throughput points.
Conversation starters
- “I saw your XR-200 runs 5HP at 480V — we stock GA500 in that config.”
- “Your Bloomington expansion — any Q3 automation budget?”
- 01
Company intelligence
A factual snapshot — what the OEM builds, where, revenue range, ownership, hiring signals, recent news. Everything traceable to a source.
- 02
Portfolio mapping
Machine-by-machine matches from the prospect's product lines to your manufacturer portfolios. At the product-family level, not the catalog level.
- 03
Confidence badges
Every match carries a confidence level: spec-matched, application-matched, or portfolio-relevant. Reps know what's certain and what's positioning.
- 04
Engineering insight
Observations a controls engineer would make — thermal management, safety architecture, communication backbone. Not marketing copy.
- 05
Conversation starters
Two or three specific, tailored talking points the rep uses verbatim. Nothing generic. Nothing AI-smelling.
Three movements
Three movements. Fully AI-driven.
Every step is structured. Every output is auditable. Built for sales reps, not analysts.
- 01
Ingest
Reads your ERP. Learns your best customers.
Three years of Schneider, Yaskawa, and Rittal transaction history from Epicor Eclipse, SX.e, P21, or Infor. Linecard builds a profile of your best OEM accounts — that profile becomes the template for discovery.
- 02
Research
Finds every OEM. Reads their machines.
For every prospect in the territory, Linecard reads the website, spec sheets, and job postings — extracting machine types, product lines, and automation specs. At scale. In parallel.
- 03
Deliver
Writes a brief your best engineer would sign.
Linecard maps each prospect's machines to your portfolios at the product-family level, then generates a branded, print-ready brief with confidence badges, engineering rationale, and conversation starters.
Built for

Voice, not AI-speak.

Generic outreach
“Hi, we offer industry-leading automation solutions. Let's connect to discuss your needs.”
Linecard brief
“Your XR-200 multi-servo design points to 480V 3-phase. GA500 with Safe Torque Off covers that cleanly — happy to walk through the SIL2 path.”
