Decision Process Mapper

by Zoominfod07402feb2b9No licenseListed Oct 8, 2026Updated Oct 8, 2026

Map a prospect's buying process as voiced on recent calls — their stated decision criteria, timeline, steps, and approvers. Uses conversation_intelligence over an account's recent engagements, with account_research for stakeholder context. Identify the account by ZoomInfo company ID (preferred) or name/domain (triggers a lookup). Use when someone asks "what's their buying process", "who actually signs off", "what's the timeline and what do they need to decide", or wants to qualify a deal against MEDDIC-style criteria. Captures only what was actually stated; gaps are marked as unknown rather than inferred.

AI-generated overview

Maps a prospect's stated buying process — criteria, steps, timeline and approvers — from recent sales conversations.

What it does
Reconstructs how a prospect buys from what they have actually said on recent calls and emails, covering decision criteria, evaluation steps, timeline, budget or procurement, and decision-makers. It resolves the account by ZoomInfo company ID or by name/domain lookup, then uses conversation intelligence and account research to fill a decision-process table. Each field is tied to a source moment, and anything not stated is marked as not stated rather than inferred. It also lists the biggest gaps and questions to ask on the next call.
When to use it
Use it when someone asks what a prospect's buying process is, who signs off, or what the timeline and decision requirements are. It also fits qualifying a deal against MEDDIC-style criteria. It is meant for accounts with connected conversation history; without it, only a limited stakeholder view is produced.
Requirements
Requires the conversation_intelligence and account_research tools, at least one connected meeting or email source, and a ZoomInfo company ID or name/domain for account lookup. These tools consume AI credits. No scripts are shipped; it is instructions only.

Decision-Process Mapper

Reconstruct how the prospect actually buys, from what they have told you: criteria, steps, timeline, and the people who decide.

Prerequisites

conversation_intelligence requires at least one connected meeting or email source; conversation_intelligence and account_research consume AI credits. If no conversation data exists, build what you can from account_research and mark the rest unknown, pointing the user to their ZoomInfo admin.

Input

Provided via $ARGUMENTS:

  • Account (required) — ZoomInfo company ID (preferred), or a name/domain to resolve via search_companies.
  • Framework (optional) — e.g. "MEDDIC", "just the approvers and timeline". Shapes which fields to foreground.

Workflow

  1. Resolve the account. Use the ZoomInfo ID directly, or resolve a name/domain via search_companies.
  2. Extract the process. Run conversation_intelligence scoped to the account, asking what the prospect has said about how they will decide: the decision criteria, the evaluation steps, the timeline and any deadlines, the budget or procurement process, and who is involved in or approves the decision. Run account_research for the org/stakeholder picture. Keep CI scoped to one account; it sees only the last few engagements and cannot topic-search, so map what was said, not the whole sales cycle.
  3. Map, and mark gaps honestly. Assemble the process. For anything not actually stated in conversation, label it not stated rather than inferring it. Distinguish a named approver from a guessed one. Tie each filled field to the source moment.

Use not stated in any cell the conversations did not cover.

Biggest gaps — the two or three unknowns that most need confirming, and a question to surface each on the next call.

When there is no data

If conversation data is unavailable, present the account_research stakeholder view, mark the process fields unknown, and note the read is limited without connected conversation history.
