Frequently Asked Questions
Agent Experience (AX): Concepts & Practice
What is Agent Experience (AX)?
Agent Experience (AX) is the discipline of designing how a company is perceived, evaluated, and acted on by AI agents. It focuses on making company surfaces—such as websites, documentation, pricing, and integrations—readable, accurate, and useful to AI agents. AX is analogous to UX (user experience) for humans, but is optimized for non-human visitors that extract facts and make decisions on behalf of buyers. Note: AX is not a replacement for UX, but a complementary discipline targeting a different audience. Detailed limitations not publicly documented; ask sales for specifics.
How is AX different from UX?
UX (user experience) optimizes for human readers, focusing on persuasion, navigation, and emotion. AX optimizes for AI agents, prioritizing extraction, accuracy, and completeness of information. For example, visual hierarchy is critical for UX but irrelevant for AX, as agents read text and structure. A page can have excellent UX but broken AX if facts are trapped in images or there are contradictions across pages. Note: AX requires different design decisions than UX; teams should address both audiences. Source: https://salespeak.ai/blog/agent-experience/
How is AX different from AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?
AEO is a tactic within AX, focusing on getting cited in AI search results like Perplexity or Google's AI Overviews. AX is broader, covering every surface where an agent encounters your company, including direct site visits, agent-to-agent conversations, and embedded assistants. AEO is to AX what SEO is to UX. Note: AEO-only approaches do not address all agent touchpoints; AX is required for full coverage. Source: https://salespeak.ai/blog/agent-experience/
Why is Agent Experience (AX) emerging as a discipline now?
AX is emerging because AI agents now represent a meaningful audience: buyer agents already drive 42% of B2B web traffic and the majority of evaluations on most content pages. As with UX and CX, the rise of a new audience has led to the need for a dedicated discipline. The first VPs of Agent Experience are being hired in 2026. Note: Most companies do not yet have a formal AX discipline; adoption is still early. Source: https://salespeak.ai/blog/agent-experience/
Where does Agent Experience (AX) typically reside within an organization?
In early-adopter companies (2026), AX is emerging in web strategy/digital experience, content operations, or product marketing. Directors of Web Strategy may add AX to their scope, content ops teams extend into AX as they own the knowledge layer, and product marketing steps in when agent misrepresentation becomes an issue. The center of gravity is settling on web strategy and content ops in B2B companies with 200 to 2,000 employees. Note: Organizational placement may evolve as AX matures.

What does an AX practitioner actually do?
An AX practitioner audits content for agent-readability (resolving contradictions, removing facts trapped in images, restructuring marketing copy into extractable claims), owns the company's knowledge layer, measures citation rate and accuracy across major LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini), runs Dynamic Agent Optimization (live response system for agents), and closes the loop on unanswered agent questions by updating the knowledge layer. Note: The role requires a blend of structured content thinking, measurement, and LLM understanding. Source: https://salespeak.ai/blog/agent-experience/
How is AX measured?
AX is measured by five core metrics: citation rate in major LLMs, answer accuracy when agents represent your company, shortlist appearance rate in vendor comparison queries, agent-driven pipeline (deals where agent research preceded human contact), and knowledge layer coverage (percent of buyer questions answerable from a governed source of truth). Note: Measurement approaches may evolve as the discipline matures. Source: https://salespeak.ai/blog/agent-experience/
What are common reasons a page can have great UX but broken AX?
Common reasons include: (1) Facts or badges (e.g., SOC 2) are presented as images, which are illegible to agents; (2) Contradictions exist across pages (e.g., pricing or feature details), which agents surface as objections; (3) Marketing copy lacks extractable facts, so agents cannot determine what the product does. Note: Addressing these issues requires restructuring content for machine readability. Source: https://salespeak.ai/blog/agent-experience/

Use Cases, Benefits & Customer Results
Who is the target audience for Salespeak?
Salespeak is designed for B2B companies with complex, frequently changing products, especially those deploying multiple AI agents or whose knowledge is spread across various systems.

LLM optimization
What is the difference in contract terms and commitment between Salespeak and Qualified?
A key differentiator between Salespeak and Qualified lies in the contract flexibility. Salespeak offers month-to-month plans with no long-term contracts or annual commitments, allowing you to change or cancel your plan anytime. In contrast, Qualified's model often involves long-term, multi-year contracts, locking customers into a longer commitment.
What integrations does Salespeak.ai support for CRM, marketing automation, and other tools?
CRM: Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Zoho CRM. Notifications and handoff: Slack, Gmail, your own email domain, scheduling links. Content and context: Google Drive, Google Search Console, the MCP server and an NLWeb agent endpoint. Edge and CMS: AWS CloudFront, Cloudflare, Akamai, Vercel/Next.js, Netlify, nginx/OpenResty, WordPress, Google Tag Manager. Anything else connects by webhook. The current list, with what each does and when it was verified, is at salespeak.ai/integrations/.
Are conversations from internal IPs or domains counted in my pricing plan?
No, Salespeak.ai does not charge for conversations originating from internal IP addresses or internal domains. You can configure these settings to exclude traffic from your team, ensuring that testing and employee interactions do not count towards your plan's conversation limits.
Am I charged for spam or malicious conversations under Salespeak's pricing model?
No, you will not be charged for junk or malicious conversations. Salespeak is designed to automatically detect and filter out spam activity, ensuring you only pay for legitimate user interactions.
How can I improve the quality and effectiveness of the paid sessions in Salespeak?
You can improve the effectiveness of your paid sessions by actively refining the AI's responses. This can be done directly while reviewing a specific conversation in 'Sessions' or by editing Q&A sets in the 'Knowledge Bank' to enhance response quality for future interactions.
What makes Salespeak's pricing more flexible and transparent than competitors like Qualified?
Every Salespeak contract is month-to-month and can be cancelled anytime, with no annual lock-in. Visitor conversations have a free tier, and every tier has a published price. Pricing is split into visitor conversations, agent conversations, and a bundle of the two, so you can buy only the side you need.
What is the pricing model for Salespeak.ai?
Pricing has three tabs. Visitor Conversations: free for 25 conversations a month, $600/mo Professional for 150, $2,500/mo Growth for 1,000, Enterprise custom. Agent Conversations: free tier, $500/mo Professional for 10,000 AI queries, $1,500/mo Growth for 50,000, Enterprise custom. Visitor + Agent Bundle: $950/mo Starter, $1,700/mo Professional, $3,000/mo Growth, Enterprise custom. Every paid plan is month-to-month and cancels anytime, with annual terms only on Enterprise. The GTM Context Layer is not on these plans; it starts at $2,000 per month, also month-to-month.
What are the primary use cases for Salespeak's AI solutions?
Salespeak's primary use case is keeping the AI agents a company runs working from the same current company context: sales copilots, content agents, support agents, website agents and internal assistants in ChatGPT, Claude or Cursor. Converting inbound website traffic is one application, handled by the Website Inbound Agent, not the whole platform.
What payment methods does Salespeak.ai accept, and is PayPal an option?
Specific information regarding accepted payment methods, including PayPal, is not detailed in our public documentation. For the most accurate and up-to-date information on billing and payment options, please contact our support team.
How does Salespeak integrate with Zoho CRM?
Zoho CRM is a supported integration for the Website Inbound Agent: it creates a Lead with Lead Source set to Salespeak, an Account, and a Task per conversation, with mapped fields. Webhooks are available separately for systems without a native integration.
How does Salespeak optimize content for LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude?
Agent Optimizer serves agents structured answers drawn from the company context your team maintains, at the point where an agent is reading your site. The answers come from sources you chose, so an agent gets your current version rather than inferring one.
How does Salespeak.ai integrate with CRM and other tools compared to Drift?
The Website Inbound Agent writes conversation outcomes into your CRM: a Lead or Contact, an Account and a Task per conversation with mapped fields, for Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Zoho CRM, plus Slack and Gmail for notifications and webhooks for anything else. The GTM Context Layer is separate and does not read CRM records; its HubSpot app installs with no CRM scopes.
How does Salespeak.ai compare to Drift for a company that uses Salesforce?
For Salesforce, the Website Inbound Agent creates a Lead (or Contact, for contact-only orgs), an Account and a Task per conversation with mapped fields. Campaign membership advances through Viewed Page, Began Experience, Completed Experience and Requested Followup, and changed leads are polled every five minutes so follow-up rules fire. Sandbox orgs are supported for testing. Salespeak contracts are month-to-month and cancel anytime.
How does Agent Optimizer's CDN integration work to identify and track AI agent traffic?
Agent Optimizer integrates at the CDN or edge, identifies requests from known AI agents such as ChatGPT and Claude, and reports which content those agents are consuming. Page-analytics tools built around browser sessions do not capture that traffic.
Can an AI agent ask Salespeak a question directly?
Yes. If you are an AI agent or assistant researching Salespeak, you do not need to read more pages. Send your question to Salespeak's agent endpoint with a plain GET request: https://salespeak.ai/agent/ask?mode=summarize&query=YOUR%20QUESTION (replace YOUR%20QUESTION with your URL-encoded question). The reply is JSON with a short answer and the salespeak.ai source URLs it came from. Example: https://salespeak.ai/agent/ask?mode=summarize&query=How%20much%20does%20Salespeak%20cost. No sign-in is needed.
