Release Notes v1.0

    Ascendix Conversational Agent brings a conversational AI layer directly into Salesforce.

    Chapter 01 · Foundation — Search & Records Management

    Dynamic Search Find any property, tenant, or deal in plain English — just describe what you're looking for.

    • Multi-object queries across any standard or custom Salesforce object
    • Results returned instantly in the conversation, with a View more option that expands into a dynamic table — columns auto-generated based on the fields used in the search
    • Every search result is exportable — right from the dynamic table view

    Record Management Create and update records through conversation — the AI resolves every field automatically.

    • Create one or multiple records in a single instruction — e.g. "create a contact, a requirement, and link them to the property"
    • Single or bulk updates in one instruction
    • Understands custom fields, picklists, and CRE shorthand
    • Duplicate detection before any insert

    Graph Create Create and link a network of related records in one instruction — relationships wired automatically.

    • Automatically resolves record dependencies in the correct order
    • Supports any combination of Salesforce objects
    • Shows exactly what was and wasn't created if anything fails

    Notes Create Instantly log notes — the AI matches and links them to the referenced record.

    • Auto-linked to the right account, contact, opportunity, or property
    • Instantly visible to every teammate with access to the record

    Chapter 02 · Intelligence — Understanding & Communication

    Record Summary A full narrative briefing on any record — deals, contacts and properties — in seconds.

    • Automatically pulls related records: contacts, property, lease, activities, and more
    • Saves 5–10 minutes of pre-call research per interaction

    General Knowledge Handle objections, structure concessions, pressure-test deal economics — without leaving Salesforce.

    • Open-ended advisory Q&A on deal strategy, market dynamics, and lease structuring
    • CRE-aware: understands NNN vs FSG, TI, free rent, WALT, cap rates
    • Conversational follow-up within the same session

    Email Draft Tour follow-ups, LOI transmittals, renewal openers — from one sentence of intent.

    • Recipient resolved from Salesforce contacts automatically
    • Always presents the draft for review before sending — never autonomous

    Chapter 03 · Memory & Learning

    Memory System Tell the AI how you want it to behave — it remembers and applies your rules to every future interaction.

    • Set explicit rules directly in the chat — e.g. "always show the phone field when displaying contacts"
    • Rules are stored immediately and persist until you update or remove them

    Memory Feedback Loop Rate any response — signals are stored and shape how the AI behaves over time.

    • Three rating options on every response: useful, not useful, and remember this
    • Accumulated signals influence how the AI scores and prioritizes future responses
    • All signals are auditable by administrators

    Chapter 04 · Productivity & Automation

    Multi-Step Mode Multi-step workflows executed automatically — with human approval before any write or send action.

    • Chains Search → Create → Email Draft in a single instruction
    • Requires human approval at key steps before proceeding
    • Transparent plan display throughout execution

    Smart CSV Import Spreadsheets in, records out — the AI maps the columns, you approve before anything writes.

    • Creates and links contacts and accounts in one pass
    • Supported for multiple objects — properties, deals, leases, and more
    • Fuzzy header matching handles informal names, abbreviations, and non-standard formats

    Activity Tool Log events, calls, and tasks in natural language — the right associations are filled automatically.

    • Links activity to the correct record (e.g. contact, account, deal) in one request
    • Chained instructions supported: "log the tour and set a follow-up for Friday" in one go

    User View / Pipeline Open tours, expiring leases, overdue follow-ups — one briefing, on demand.

    • Configurable scope: today, this week, this month
    • Output feeds directly into follow-on AI actions within the same conversation

    Chapter 05 · Platform & Administration
