Targeted Nudges, Not Running Commentary
Live guidance that delivers one specific suggestion when the data shows it will change the outcome. The rest of the conversation runs uninterrupted.
Mid-Conversation Coaching Splits Attention
A voice in your ear giving continuous commentary splits your attention and breaks your rhythm. Salespeople in live conversations are already managing a lot: reading the customer, recalling product details, navigating objections. Adding a running AI narration makes performance worse.
SelfLoop delivers targeted nudges: brief, specific, timed to moments where a single action would change the likely outcome.
Coaching belongs after the conversation. That's when a salesperson can absorb a full review. During the conversation, one specific suggestion is what helps.
What a Nudge Is
Brief, Specific, Timed
A nudge is a single suggestion delivered at a moment the system identifies as consequential. One actionable thing most likely to improve where the conversation goes next.
The system analyzes both sides of the conversation, tracking where things are in the sales process and catching signals the salesperson may have missed. Most of the time it says nothing. When it identifies a high-value moment, it delivers the nudge.
Examples of what a nudge sounds like
"She's mentioned the commute twice — shift to fuel efficiency before you go to price."
"He just gave you a buying signal. Move toward the test drive."
"Price objection is coming. Lead with the certified warranty before he raises it."
"They need the subfloor answered before they'll commit to the flooring. Ask that question now."
Short, actionable, timed to land before the moment passes.
What Triggers a Nudge
SelfLoop analyzes every moment but nudges only when its model indicates a specific action would change the likely outcome at that point in the conversation.
The system tracks what's been said, the current deal stage, the customer's signals, and historical data on what works with this customer type. If the expected impact clears the threshold, a nudge fires.
What triggers a nudge
- A buying signal the salesperson has not yet acted on
- A customer objection that historical data shows is mishandled at high rates
- A deal stage transition point where the right prompt has high close-rate impact
- A product knowledge gap that's creating hesitation in the customer
- An upsell opportunity based on what the customer has indicated they need
- A conversation going off-track from the sales process in a recoverable way
Hardware and Delivery Options
Flexible capture, flexible delivery
SelfLoop doesn't require any specific hardware. The conversation audio is captured using whatever works for your environment:
- Earpiece or AirPods: for mobile salespeople moving through a showroom or team
- Call center headset: single-ear with boom mic, practical for shared-use
- Tablet or phone microphone: the SelfLoop mobile interface captures audio via the built-in mic and displays nudges on screen, no earpiece required
- Desktop puck microphone: for fixed-location interactions like a finance desk or service counter
- Spatial microphone array: directional mics installed across a showroom or team floor, with no hardware worn by associates
Nudge delivery
Nudges can be delivered as:
- Audio: a brief spoken prompt through the earpiece or headset, inaudible to the customer
- On-screen: the SelfLoop tablet or phone interface surfaces nudges visually, alongside proactively surfaced product knowledge and customer context, in response to the live conversation, without the associate needing to search for anything
The mobile interface is a live assistant: it tracks the conversation, records what the customer is looking for, surfaces relevant information, and updates in real time, without requiring the associate to interact with it directly.
Calibrated to Your Environment
Generic nudges produce generic results. SelfLoop calibrates to your specific products, sales process, and customer patterns.
The trigger conditions, the nudge content, and the timing all reflect what the data shows works in your environment.
What feeds the nudge model
- Your sales process and deal stage definitions
- Your product catalog and the objection patterns specific to your inventory
- Historical close rates by conversation type and customer demographic
- The outcomes of previous interactions: what worked, what didn't, and under what circumstances
- Feedback from after-action reviews that identifies persistent gaps
With more data, the system's timing and content sharpen.
Designed for the Realities of Live Sales
Low Latency
Nudges arrive fast enough to be useful. SelfLoop's audio transcription and LLM pipeline runs at ultra-low latency. Customers move fast, and the guidance keeps up.
Cross-Platform
Works across iOS, iPadOS, Android, and traditional desktop environments. Deploy on whatever devices your team already has.
Silence as the Default
Most of the time, the system says nothing. That's intentional. The value of a nudge comes from its selectivity: your salesperson trusts that when something arrives, it's worth hearing.
