Both ends of the funnel, working
AI Lead Generation
Cognautic is an AI lead generation service: we build systems that capture more of the demand you already attract through configured call coverage, connected-form response, qualification, follow-up, and eligible database reactivation. Customer-owned source accounts stay in your name, with human approval where scoped: a fixed written buildout quote, then amonthly run-and-grow engagement scoped to your business and portal views for connected modules.
What we build
Six systems that capture leads and convert them.
Prompt, measured lead response
Eligible leads can enter an approved response workflow as soon as a connected form, ad source, or phone system delivers them. We report observed delivery and response time rather than promise a fixed number of seconds.
AI phone agents for call coverage
A configured phone agent can add after-hours and overflow coverage, take approved details, handle routine questions from supplied information, and book against connected availability.
Qualification and routing
Eligible new leads can be asked the approved questions — budget, timeline, location, and fit — then routed to the configured person or calendar with the available context.
Database reactivation
A CRM may hold prior quotes and customers who are eligible for a relevant follow-up. We exclude unsupported contacts, run approved campaigns with stop rules, and measure replies, bookings, opt-outs, and downstream outcomes.
Review and referral engines
After a completed job, every eligible customer can receive the same neutral review request and a separately configured referral invitation. Outcomes depend on participation and platform rules, so both are measured rather than assumed.
Source attribution you can trust
Connected sources can attach available campaign and referrer fields to leads and booked-work records. Reporting labels missing links instead of claiming attribution the source data cannot support.
Both ends of the funnel
Most lead gen sells you more leads. We start with the ones you have.
You don't have a traffic problem
A follow-up gap may be the issue. Measure response time, attempt cadence, booking, and close rate before buying more traffic; only the before-and-after data can show whether fixing that gap is the better investment.
Your old CRM is full of buyers
A CRM can contain prior inquiries that went quiet. After consent, purpose, opt-out, and contact validity are reviewed, eligible records can enter a bounded reactivation test; others remain available for research or manual handling.
Referrals happen by luck
A referral engine can invite eligible customers under published program terms, track links or codes, and record outcomes. Participation stays voluntary and the economics need to be measured.
Once a lead is captured, the follow-up engine behind our AI sales agency takes over — qualification, chasing, and booking. Lead capture is one of the six AI automation services we build and run, and it pairs with our AI marketing agency work when you want the top of the funnel automated too.
How it starts
From free consult to leads you can count.
This model works anywhere leads are expensive and follow-up is manual — see AI automation for home services for a worked example — and the free consult puts numbers on your funnel before you spend a dollar.
We trace where leads enter, where they stall, and what each leak costs you — with numbers.
The buildout is quoted in writing at your free consult and charged once when you approve it. Every recurring and optional charge is itemized in the quote.
Customer-owned CRM, phone numbers, review profiles, and source data stay in your name. Managed runtime and the exit path are documented separately.
We report recovered leads, booked appointments, and closed jobs — not clicks or impressions.
AI lead generation FAQs
AI lead generation uses systems to capture, qualify, route, and follow up with leads. Cognautic focuses first on demand you already attract, builds on accounts you control, and operates the system under a published platform tier.
It can be a strong fit when calls go unanswered, quotes are not followed up, or referral requests are inconsistent. We measure those leaks before recommending a system; recovered revenue and cost efficiency depend on the business's volume, offer, and close process.
Working first-party demand can be more relevant than buying a cold list, but neither an inbound interaction nor a prior customer relationship automatically authorizes every channel or message. Contact eligibility depends on consent, purpose, jurisdiction, opt-out status, and the proposed workflow. We exclude unsupported audiences and review the rules before activation.
Cognautic charges a fixed written buildout quote, then a monthly run-and-grow engagement scoped to your business. There is no per-lead charge. If you separately choose paid-media management, it is optional and quoted at your free consult. Recovering leads you already paid for is usually the first priority.
Compliance depends on channel, message, consent, jurisdiction, and use case. We configure consent records, opt-outs, quiet hours, and message logs, but an inbound call, form, or customer relationship does not automatically authorize every kind of outreach. We review the proposed flow and keep unsupported audiences out.
Capture and response activity can be measured as soon as the integrations are live, but booked-work and revenue timelines depend on lead volume and sales cycle. Reactivation, review, and referral programs need enough eligible contacts and time to produce a useful comparison. We establish a baseline and report observed outcomes without guaranteeing a date or lift.
