Over the last few years, artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed nearly every industry — including sales. In late 2024, Salesforce introduced Agentforce and unlocked new opportunities for sales teams to work even more efficiently with AI-powered “agents” at their service. Earlier this spring, we launched our own AI for sales performance management: Insights

With the introduction of Insights, our AI and Analytics extension, and Agentforce Actions for Geopointe and LevelEleven, Ascent Cloud is enabling sales teams to do even more with their data. Keep reading to learn about our approach to AI and how your team can benefit.

 

AI in Sales: Popular Use Cases and Top Benefits

According to the latest State of Sales report from Salesforce, 81% of sales teams are using AI in some capacity. Common use cases include keeping data accurate and error-free, understanding customer needs, sales forecasting, and communicating with prospects and customers. By using AI in these ways, sales reps can spend less time on administrative tasks and more time on customer relationships. The impact? An increase in revenue for 83% of teams using AI. 

Efficiency and increased sales aside, AI is also helping sales organizations get a leg up on the competition. As more and more businesses incorporate AI into their daily workflows, it’s imperative to adapt and keep up with the times before your competitors beat you to the punch. 

That’s why we launched Insights: to help you work smarter, drive revenue, and stay ahead of the curve. It’s no longer a question of if your sales team will use AI, but how — and we want to be the answer.

 

Our Approach to AI

With Ascent Cloud’s sales performance management solutions, more than 1,000 sales organizations are already saving valuable time, increasing efficiency, and crushing revenue goals: 

  • Geopointe users save an average of 16 hours each week on administrative or data-related tasks
  • LevelEleven users report an average quarterly revenue increase of 23%

And that was before we added AI to the mix! Our Spring 2025 Product Release marked the official launch of Insights by Ascent Cloud, enabling sales organizations to work smarter, not harder, with intelligent recommendations and personalized coaching tools powered by AI. 

“These enhancements enable companies to plan, execute, and grow their business more efficiently and they can now unlock additional insights into their sales performance management strategy,” said David Leinweber, CEO of Ascent Cloud.

What’s Included with Insights

So, what is Insights by Ascent Cloud? It’s an AI-powered layer of intelligence that helps sales teams plan, execute, and grow with (even more) confidence. By harnessing the power of AI within our trusted Territory Planner, Geopointe, and LevelEleven solutions, we’re empowering sales leaders to do more with less. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s included.

Territory Planner users can make smarter territory decisions, easily spot trends, and compare regions with color-coded overlays and Thematic Maps.

For Geopointe users, Insights unlocks additional features that enable predictive, productive action:

  • Thematic Maps: visualize your metrics and group results by geographic boundaries.

LevelEleven users can lead smarter and coach with impact thanks to personalized features and data-rich Insights:

  • Conversion Insights: build team strategies and coach in real time based on what’s actually motivating reps and driving action.
  • Custom Manager Views: personalize your Scorecard experience based on the metrics that matter to you, without changing your team’s view.

But that’s not all! Our Insights package also includes Agentforce Actions for Geopointe and LevelEleven, enabling sales teams to act on their data faster and more intuitively through natural language prompts from anywhere within Salesforce. Geopointe users can conduct nearby searches and build prospecting lists while LevelEleven users can recognize and reward their team with the click of a button.
