Demodesk's AI Agents help your team automate recurring work across the sales process. They can prepare reps before meetings, analyze meetings after they've been processed in Demodesk, monitor risks, summarize patterns, and send updates without manual follow-up.
This guide helps you turn AI Agents into practical workflows for Admins, Managers, and individual Users.
What makes a good Agent prompt
A good Agent prompt should clearly define five things:
# | Element | What to define | Example |
1 | Trigger | When the Agent should run | Every Monday morning, after a meeting has been processed in Demodesk, or when triggered via webhook |
2 | Scope | What the Agent should analyze | Meeting recordings, AI summaries, CRM context, past meetings, or connected tools |
3 | Task | What the Agent should do | Review, compare, rank, summarize, flag, prepare, or update |
4 | Output | What the result should include | A short summary, ranked risks, action items, snippets, or a structured brief |
5 | Action | What should happen after the result is generated | Post to Demodesk chat, email it to yourself, push to Slack, Microsoft Teams, Notion, Jira, GitLab, or a CRM through an API |
Simple prompt template
Trigger Run after [event / schedule / webhook].
Scope Focus on [meetings / accounts / reps / time range / meeting type].
Task Analyze [sources]. Look for [signals]. Compare against [criteria].
Output Return [format, length, fields, ranking logic].
Action Send the result to [Demodesk chat / email to yourself / connected system].
Tips for better Agent prompts
Tip | Why it helps |
Keep prompts short and specific | Five to ten lines is often enough |
Tell the Agent exactly what "good" looks like | Helps produce concise, specific, account-grounded output |
Use a clear format | Bullets, tables, top 3 risks, next steps, or structured briefs are easier to review |
Start with one simple workflow | Keeps the Agent narrow enough to validate and improve |
Specify which meetings matter | Useful when the Agent acts on discovery, demo, handover, renewal, QBR, escalation, or onboarding meetings |
Review execution history | Helps tighten prompts that are too broad or generic |
Before you build
AI Agents work best when Demodesk has access to the right context.
Strong starting points | Additional context that can make Agents more powerful |
Demodesk meeting data | Connected APIs |
AI summaries and transcripts | Slack, Microsoft Teams, Notion, Jira, GitLab, or CRM integrations |
CRM context | Webhook-based triggers from external systems |
Past meetings with the same customer |
|
Admins
Admins usually set up the foundation for the team. They define shared workflows, control access, connect systems, and create Agents that improve consistency across teams.
What Admins should build
Admin workflow | Purpose |
Team-wide post-meeting workflows | Improve consistency across teams |
Shared digests for leadership or enablement | Keep key stakeholders informed |
Pipeline-risk monitoring | Identify risks and gaps |
Cross-team pattern analysis | Surface recurring themes |
Webhook-based automations | Connect Agents to internal tools |
What good Admin Agents look like
Quality | What it means |
Clear trigger | The Agent runs at the right time |
Defined audience | The output is written for the right people |
Standardized output format | Results are easier to compare |
Narrow scope | The Agent is reliable |
Useful before advanced actions | The workflow works even before API actions are added |

Common mistakes to avoid
Mistake | Better approach |
Asking the Agent to do too many things in one prompt | Keep each Agent focused on one outcome |
Not defining which meetings or accounts matter | Specify the relevant meeting type, account set, team, or time range |
Asking for a long narrative | Request a useful format such as bullets, tables, risks, or next steps |
Starting with API actions before validating the logic | Validate the result first in Demodesk chat |
Using vague goals like "analyze my meetings" or "find insights" | Define the exact signals and output format |
Forgetting to specify the notification channel | State whether the result should go to chat, email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Notion, or a connected tool |
What to know about triggers
Trigger type | Best use case |
Schedule | Digests and pattern analysis |
After a meeting has been processed in Demodesk | Coaching, follow-up, and inspection |
Webhook from an external system | External workflow orchestration |
Rollout advice
Step | Action |
1 | Start with one Admin Agent, one Manager Agent, and one User Agent |
2 | Keep each one focused on a single outcome |
3 | Validate the output in Demodesk chat first |
4 | Tighten the prompt if results are too broad or repetitive |
5 | Add email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Notion, or API actions only after the logic works reliably |
6 | Review execution history regularly and refine the prompt over time |
Final thought The best AI Agents are not the most complex ones. They are the ones that run at the right time, use the right context, and produce a clear output that helps someone act faster.
