What it does

For the hard cases that rule-based matching can't settle, this workflow hands each ambiguous account to an agent. It reads the candidate parents, researches the company's actual ownership and brand structure online, and writes a reasoned recommendation with a confidence level and sources, then routes it for one-click approval.

When to use it

Use it on the residue from your nightly stitcher: shared domains across unrelated brands, post-acquisition rebrands, holding companies, and franchise structures where a deterministic match is wrong or risky.

How it works

  1. 1A schedule fires after the nightly stitcher leaves a review queue.
  2. 2Read pending ambiguous accounts and their candidate parents from the Airtable review base.
  3. 3For each, the agent researches the corporate structure using web search and reasons over the candidates.
  4. 4The agent writes a recommended ParentId, confidence, and rationale back to Airtable.
  5. 5Branch: high-confidence recommendations are applied to Salesforce; the rest stay flagged for human approval.
  6. 6Post each recommendation to Slack with approve/reject actions.
