Action Feed
Why do sales reps miss critical actions buried in dashboards?
💡TL;DR
Action Feed is the cockpit for signal-to-execution. Instead of chasing alerts across CRM, sequencer, and chat, reps live in one queue that auto-ranks tasks by intent, SLA, and expected revenue. SMB teams cut context switching and shrink “action latency” (signal → first touch) from hours to minutes. The feed enforces sequence logic, auto-logs outcomes, and suppresses duplicate outreach across channels.
Definition
A single, prioritized stream of AI-generated tasks (calls, emails, meeting nudges) triggered by real-time buying signals. It replaces scattered alerts and static task lists with one execution rail where reps work top-to-bottom.
🏢What This Means for SMB Teams
Small teams can’t monitor dashboards all day. A feed that tells reps “next best action now” keeps pipeline moving without adding headcount.

📋Practical Example
A 30-person fintech ($14M ARR) built an Action Feed that merged web intent, billing risk, and email engagement. Tasks were auto-prioritized by revenue at risk and SLA. Action latency dropped from 9h to 34m; weekly completed tasks per rep rose 41%; churn save motions increased NRR by 4.8 pts in a quarter.
🔧Implementation Steps
- 1
Unify signals into one queue (pricing revisits, contract views, payment risk).
- 2
Score tasks by urgency (SLA), value (ARR/budget), and freshness (signal decay).
- 3
Auto-assign owners with round-robin plus specialization rules.
- 4
Auto-log outcomes and snooze rules to prevent duplicate outreach.
❓Frequently Asked Questions
How do we prevent feed overload?
Cap daily tasks per rep and decay low-value signals after 48 hours. Group low-intent items into a batch block so urgent actions stay on top.
How does this differ from a CRM task list?
CRM lists are static and manual. Action Feed is real-time, auto-prioritized, and suppresses duplicates across channels with SLA enforcement.
⚡How Optifai Uses This
Feeds route signals into a single execution queue with SLA timers and duplicate suppression.
