An AI sales agent's Yext reseller package quote, checked before it goes out

An AI sales agent at a marketing agency prepares a quote for the Yext reseller partner packages: Base, Starter, Professional or Ultimate, the add-ons, the features the customer needs, the number of locations, the term and a discount. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the package structure and returns a verdict, every reason, a line-item quote and the figures it computed.

Scope: Yext reseller partner packages (Base, Starter, Professional, Ultimate) and their add-ons (Yext for Food, Yext for Healthcare, Yelp Knowledge, Google Q&A, Review Response, Competitive Intelligence, Live API). See everything this validator covers

This validator models Yext reseller package quotes, not just the scenarios shown below. Items marked with an asterisk (*) are illustrative.

  • Packages and features — the four reseller packages, each adding features to the one below (for example Lead Capture from Starter, the Knowledge Network and white-labeled interface from Professional, Review Generation and Publishing in Ultimate), checked against the features the customer needs.
  • Add-ons — the seven published add-ons with the package each requires, the ones already included in Ultimate, the five competitors that Competitive Intelligence tracks, and a priority support option*.
  • Locations, term and discount — reseller customers with fewer than 25 locations, one to three year terms, a term discount that goes to approval above the standard, a contract-size review, and a stated total compared with the priced lines.

Any Yext reseller package quote that touches these packages and rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: Yext enterprise packages and add-ons, Pages, Search and Social capacity pricing, professional services, taxes and reseller margin. Prices, terms, discounts and the review threshold are typical for this kind of product rather than published by Yext (see the note at the end).

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
Features that depend on the package levelOnly with care
Each feature needs a rule that ties it to a package. It works, but the rules multiply as features and tiers are added.		The features the customer needs are in the request and are checked against the package on every call.
Add-ons that need a minimum package or are already includedOnly with workarounds
A prerequisite rule for each add-on, plus a second rule to stop an add-on being sold where the package already includes it, so the customer is not charged twice.		Both tests run together for every add-on, whatever order the choices arrived in.
Competitive Intelligence tied to a count of competitorsOnly with care
The count of competitors depends on whether the add-on, or the package that includes it, is on the quote. A cross-line rule that must be kept up to date.		The competitor count is checked against whichever source supplies the capability.
A customer-size limit on the whole programOnly with care
A validation rule on the location count that is easy to miss when a quote is edited later.		The location count is checked on every call.
Term discounts and approval thresholds that depend on the totalOnly with care
The standard discount depends on the term and the contract value on the lines, so price rules and approval rules must agree.		The total is computed first, then the discount is compared with the standard for the term.
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.

The text of the narrated walkthrough, step by step.

    
    
      
  1. Welcome to a demo of Predictika's Validator. An AI sales agent at a marketing agency prepares a quote for the Yext reseller partner packages: Base, Starter, Professional or Ultimate, and more. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the package structure and returns a verdict, every reason, a line-item quote and the figures it computed.
    2. 
      
  2. I will start with the first request by the agent.
    3. 
      
  3. The agent says. Please quote the Yext Base reseller package for a customer with 12 locations, on a 1-year term, with the Yext for Food add-on. The customer needs Lead Capture. The rest of the request is on screen. The quote states a total of $3,024.00.
    4. 
      
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
    5. 
      
  5. Blocked, with two findings, all in one answer. Yext for Food is available with the Starter package or higher. Lead Capture is included from the Starter package; the Base package does not include it.
    6. 
      
  6. The validator returned two 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. 
      
  7. What this shows: for add-ons that need a minimum package or are already included, a rules-based CPQ can do this only with workarounds.
    8. 
      
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
    9. 
      
  9. The corrected request. It changes the package to Yext Starter and the stated total to $5,328.00.
    10. 
      
  10. It calls the validator again.
    11. 
      
  11. This time the validator clears it.
    12. 
      
  12. The validator also returns the line-item quote, on screen.
    13. 
      
  13. Both earlier findings are cleared, and the validator's total, $5,328.00, matches the quote.
    14. 
      
  14. Two problems caught in one call, fixed in one pass, and a clean $5,328.00 quote. That is the value of Predictika's validator: catching mistakes before they reach the customer. Now you can try the other scenarios yourself.
