AI + Salesforce Integration
Klevere builds custom AI agents that sit directly inside Salesforce workflows. Beyond Einstein and Agentforce, we design agents specific to how your revenue team actually operates.
What custom AI on top of Salesforce actually looks like
A quick definition, because the phrase gets used loosely. When Klevere builds an AI agent on top of Salesforce, it means software with these properties:
Authenticates via Salesforce OAuth or Connected App with scoped permissions. Full audit trail in Salesforce.
Reads and writes Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, Cases, Tasks. Uses Salesforce Flow or Apex where needed.
Runs on schedule or reacts to platform events (new lead, opportunity stage change, case assignment).
Hands off to humans for revenue-consequential actions with full context attached.
Integrates with your enrichment, comms, and calendar tools so Salesforce stays the source of truth.
The 4 Salesforce workflows worth automating first
Based on Klevere engagements across marketing agencies and adjacent industries, these are the Salesforce workflows that pay back a custom AI agent build fastest.
Lead qualification and enrichment
New leads get enriched from external sources (Clay, Apollo, LinkedIn, ZoomInfo), scored against your ICP, and routed to the right SDR or AE. The agent also drafts personalised initial outreach the rep can send or edit in one click.
Opportunity coaching and forecast hygiene
The agent watches every open opportunity for staleness, missing fields, and inconsistent close dates. It drafts nudge emails to reps, updates fields from call transcripts, and produces a weekly forecast health report highlighting deals with risk factors that Salesforce’s built-in scoring misses.
Case triage and knowledge-base grounded responses
Incoming cases get categorised, prioritised, and routed with context. For common questions, the agent drafts a response grounded in your knowledge base for the rep to review and send. Complex cases escalate with a summary and history attached.
Account planning and expansion signals
The agent monitors your existing customer accounts for expansion signals (product usage patterns, support engagement, exec changes) and drafts account plans + expansion outreach for AMs. Turns account planning from an annual chore into a continuous flow.
Where AI on Salesforce quietly goes wrong
The failure patterns we see when SMBs try to bolt AI onto Salesforce without proper scoping.
Reinventing what Einstein or Agentforce already does
Salesforce’s own AI has matured. Custom agents should extend it, not replicate it. We map Salesforce’s native capabilities in your org before proposing custom builds.
Skipping the Salesforce security review
Salesforce customers with security-conscious IT teams will insist on reviewing any Connected App. Build the audit trail and permission scoping into the design from day one.

Does this work with Einstein or Agentforce?
+
Yes, alongside them. Klevere agents complement Salesforce’s native AI where the built-in tools fall short of what your specific process needs.
Which Salesforce editions does this support?
+
Professional, Enterprise, Unlimited, and Developer editions with API access. Custom builds are typically deployed via Connected Apps with scoped OAuth.
Can the agent live inside Salesforce (Lightning components) or does it live outside?
+
Both patterns are possible. We can build Lightning Web Components that call the agent, or we can run the agent externally and have it push updates to Salesforce via API. The choice depends on your security and user experience preferences.
What about SOC 2 and enterprise data policies?
+
Klevere-managed environments meet SOC 2 requirements. We can also deploy agents inside your Salesforce infrastructure so data never leaves your control.
How long does deployment take?
+
For Salesforce, typically four to eight weeks depending on Connected App review timeline, integration complexity, and internal security sign-offs.
What does it cost?
+
Priced per project after the free AI audit. Salesforce projects tend to be at the higher end of Klevere engagements due to security and compliance overhead.
