Most sales AI waits for you to ask. Needle is proactive. It works like a GTM engineer on your team: it watches your pipeline and acts before you do. Spots stalled deals and drafts the follow-up, preps you before calls, keeps your CRM tidy, surfaces real buying signals. It lives in Slack and Teams, wired into HubSpot, Gmail and Gong. Unlike horizontal agents, it is built for revenue teams, acts through your permissions, and your context and memory stay portable. No lock-in. Not another dashboard.

Could you build this?
Partial Building a basic Slackbot with LLM integrations is easy, but continuously ingesting, syncing, and reconciling CRM data (Salesforce, HubSpot) across multi-tenant enterprise auth is technically demanding.
What it would actually take: The system requires event-driven webhook ingestion and polling workers (Temporal or Celery) connected to CRM APIs (Salesforce, HubSpot) and messaging platforms (Slack, Teams). The hard parts are maintaining bi-directional sync, building deterministic sales pipeline state machines, managing granular per-user OAuth permission boundaries, and handling rate limits at scale.
