Predictika · Electronic signature plan quotes

An AI sales agent's electronic signature plan quote, checked before it goes out

An AI sales agent prepares a monthly quote for a jSign-style electronic signature plan: the plan, the number of users, envelopes a month, document size, upload formats, savable templates, the Client Admin Portal and the monthly price. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the published plan limits and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.

Scope: jSign Basic, Plus and Pro plan quotes: users, envelopes, document size, upload formats, templates, Client Admin Portal and monthly price. See everything this validator covers

This validator models jSign Basic, Plus and Pro plan quotes, not just the scenarios shown below.

  • Plan limits — users (1 on Basic and Plus, 2 on Pro), envelopes a month (25, 50 and 75) and maximum document size (5, 15 and 20 MB).
  • Formats, templates and portal — PDF and Word files only on Basic, presentation, spreadsheet and image uploads on Plus and Pro, 3 savable templates on every plan, and the Client Admin Portal on Pro only.
  • Price and Corporate — a stated monthly price that must match the plan ($9.99, $14.99 and $19.99), and a quote beyond the Pro limits, which belongs to the Corporate plan priced by quote.

Any Basic, Plus or Pro quote that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: the Corporate plan itself (priced by quote), the free plan, annual billing, taxes, and eFax products from the same company.

Where rules-based CPQ gets it wrong

Click to expand

Our assessment of what a typical rules-based CPQ (product rules, price rules and validation rules, as in Salesforce CPQ) does with the same cases. It is a judgment about effort and reliability, not a claim that nothing can be built.

What the validator caughtTypical rules-based CPQPredictika
Limits that differ by planOnly with care
Each plan has its own user, envelope and size limit, so every limit is a table of plan by value that needs its own rule and upkeep.
The plan and every quantity are in one request; limits are computed from the plan on every call.
Features on one plan onlyOnly with workarounds
Formats and the Client Admin Portal each depend on the plan chosen on another line, so they need cross-line rules that interact.
Every choice is in one request, so a conflict is found whichever order the choices arrive in.
Quotes beyond the self-serve plansOnly with workarounds
Deciding that a request belongs to a quote-only plan means testing several quantities against the top plan, and the plan rules must not double-report it.
One rule recognizes the Corporate case and the plan rules stay quiet, so the rep gets a single clear reason.
Stated price that must match the planOnly with care
A stated price is a free-entry field; a rule can compare it with the plan price, but someone has to write and maintain that comparison.
The stated price travels with the quote and is compared with the plan price on every call.
Every problem returned in one answerOnly with workarounds
Rules tend to fire as the quote is saved or a step is completed, so a rep often fixes one error and meets the next.
All findings come back together, whatever order the choices arrived in.

What this validator catches: findings from its test cases

Every rule is checked on every call, in any order the choices arrive; one problem never hides another. Blocking findings stop the quote; approval findings need a person to sign off; everything else is computed.

Narration transcript

The text of the narrated walkthrough, step by step.

  1. Welcome to a demo of Predictika's Validator. An AI sales agent prepares a monthly quote for a jSign-style electronic signature plan: the plan, the number of users, envelopes a month, and more. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the published plan limits and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.
  2. I will start with the first request by the agent.
  3. The agent says. Please quote the Basic plan for 2 users with 40 envelopes a month, documents up to 12 MB and 3 savable templates, with presentation, spreadsheet and image uploads. The quote states a monthly price of $9.99. The rest of the request is on screen.
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
  5. Blocked, with four findings, all in one answer. The quote has 2 users but this plan includes 1. The quote has 40 envelopes a month but this plan includes 25. Documents up to 12 MB are needed but this plan takes up to 5 MB. The other one is on screen.
  6. The validator returned four blocking findings in one answer. A check that reads one field at a time would pass most of this; it shows only when the choices in the quote are checked against each other.
  7. What this shows: for limits that differ by plan, a rules-based CPQ is error-prone for this.
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
  9. The corrected request. It changes the plan to plus.
  10. It calls the validator again.
  11. Still blocked, with two findings, all in one answer. The quote has 2 users but this plan includes 1. The quote states a monthly price of 999 cents, but this plan costs 1,499 cents a month.
  12. Three findings cleared. Still blocking: more users than the plan allows. Newly found: stated monthly price does not match.
  13. The agent resubmits once more.
  14. The revised request. It changes the plan to pro and the stated monthly price to $19.99.
  15. It calls the validator once more.
  16. This time the validator clears it.
  17. The validator also returns the line-item quote, on screen.
  18. Both earlier findings are cleared, and the validator's total, $19.99 a month, matches the quote.
  19. Four problems caught in one call, fixed in two passes, and a clean $19.99 quote. That is the value of Predictika's validator: catching mistakes before they reach the customer. Now you can try the other scenarios yourself.
