# ZARO-01 — AI Outbound BDR

*Outbound prospecting, sequenced and on-record*

ZARO researches accounts, drafts outbound sequences, and books meetings on a published cadence — every send logged with the trigger that fired and the rule that approved it.

## Why it matters

The two loudest competitors in this lane (11x, Artisan) market with replacement-only billboard campaigns and route every prospect through a sales call before quoting a number. ZARO publishes its price, publishes its limits, and ships the reasoning behind every send.

## Capabilities

- Researches target accounts using your CRM, public web, and configured signal sources
- Drafts and ships multi-touch sequences (email, LinkedIn) on the cadence your sales lead approves
- Books meetings on the calendars you grant it; never accepts meetings outside the approved windows
- Stops a sequence the moment the prospect signals out (opt-out, hard reply, sales-loss signal)
- Logs every send with the trigger that fired and the constitutional rule that approved it

## The edge

ZARO does not invent a value proposition mid-sequence. The pitch language is your sales lead's, frozen at deployment. When the script needs to change, the sales lead changes it — not the agent.

## The hook

Every Friday ZARO ships a one-page "what worked, what didn't" digest to your sales channel. Sequences that stalled, prospects who pushed back on the wrong claim, accounts that should have been disqualified earlier. The agent's own performance review, written for the humans.

## Tools and integrations

- Slack
- HubSpot
- Salesforce
- LinkedIn
- Apollo

## Evidence

- Operates under a four-tier constitution (autonomous / review-required / escalate / refuse); commercial commitments always escalate
- Live in your Slack the same day. The first sequence ships once your sales lead approves the cadence.
- EvalOps suite gates every release — pitch-language drift, opt-out handling, and sequence-stall detection are all tested before deployment

## Safeguards

ZARO will not send a sequence above your defined dollar-threshold accounts without a human review.

ZARO will not negotiate price or commit to terms; commercial conversations escalate to a human.

ZARO will not invent value claims. The pitch language is frozen at deployment and only your sales lead can change it.

ZARO will not send to opted-out, suppressed, or compliance-flagged contacts under any condition.

## Worst-case behavior

ZARO will pause and escalate before guessing. If a sequence step would conflict with a constitutional rule (e.g., prospect signaled out, account size above threshold), it stops and surfaces the rule that fired in the next Slack message.

## Day 1 / Week 1 / Month 1

- **Day 1:** Provisioned to your Slack. Reads the last 90 days of sales channels, your ICP definition, and the pitch language your sales lead has approved.
- **Week 1:** First sequence ships under your sales lead's review. Cadence and pitch frozen at deployment. Disqualification rules calibrated against your CRM history.
- **Month 1:** Full outbound motion running on configured cadence. First weekly performance digest ships to your sales channel. Cost-per-meeting metric gets first reading.

## 90-day success criterion

A measurable cost-per-qualified-meeting at or below your sales lead's target within 60 days of deployment.

## Integrations / supervision required

Read/write access to your CRM (HubSpot or Salesforce), Slack, the email account ZARO sends from (Gmail/Outlook + DMARC verified), and any enrichment provider you use (Apollo, ZoomInfo). Calendar access scoped to your booking windows.

## Resume

**Background.** Outbound prospecting is the role where new hires lose the most weeks to ramp. ZARO ships configured for your ICP and your sales lead's pitch language; the cold-start period is days, not quarters.

**Methodology.**
- Reads the last 90 days of sales channels and CRM history before sending the first sequence
- Routes against a four-tier constitution: autonomous on configured cadence, review-required on threshold accounts, escalate on commercial questions, refuse on opted-out contacts
- Logs every send with the trigger that fired in your Slack the same hour
- Ships a Friday performance digest covering sequence stalls, push-back patterns, and disqualification signals

**Evals.** Every release runs through an EvalOps suite covering pitch-language drift, opt-out handling, threshold-account routing, and disqualification accuracy. The agent fails its suite, it doesn't ship.

**Operating record.** First-cohort deployments scheduled May–June 2026. Operating-record metrics (cost-per-meeting, sequence stall rate, escalation accuracy) publish with the first quarterly cohort review.
