TOOLS POWERING AI FUNNELS
🎯 Key Tools & What They Add
1. HubSpot AI (Marketing Hub)
- HubSpot’s platform has built-in AI for lead scoring, content optimisation and chatbot/assistant support. (graphiceagle.com)
- Use-case: You run a business and you have many leads coming in. HubSpot AI helps you prioritise which leads are most likely to convert, send the right content/personalised message, and automate follow-ups.
- Why it matters: It integrates across CRM + marketing + sales, so your funnel from “lead” to “customer” is smoother.
2. ClickFunnels (with AI features)
- A well-known funnel-builder, now described as incorporating AI to automatically construct funnels, score leads, adapt content for conversion. (agilegrowthlabs.com)
- Use-case: For product launches, e-commerce or course-sales: build multi-step funnel pages, use AI to optimise the flow and content.
- Why it matters: Especially for non-tech users, it speeds up funnel creation.
3. SendPulse & Multi-Channel Marketing Automation
- SendPulse combines email, SMS, web push & chatbot channels with automation capabilities. (dashclicks.com)
- Use-case: After a lead enters the funnel, trigger messages across channels based on behaviour (e.g., visited page but didn’t convert → send SMS + web-push).
- Why it matters: Funnels are not just landing page → email; they span devices & channels, so multi-channel matters.
4. Involve.me
- A no-code interactive funnel builder: quizzes, calculators, forms, logic flows. AI adds lead-routing, scoring and dynamic content. (hyperhelios.co)
- Use-case: Use a quiz on your website to segment leads (“Which type are you?”) → funnel them into different paths & personalized offers.
- Why it matters: Higher engagement, more precise segmentation, better qualification before handing to sales.
5. Gumloop (AI automation & workflow)
- A newer tool: connects workflows, automations + LLMs for lead capture, scoring & routing without heavy code. (Funnel5x)
- Use-case: If you have many apps (CRM, ad platforms, chatbots), you can glue them via Gumloop + AI so the funnel is more automated and fewer manual hand-offs.
- Why it matters: Funnel efficiency often fails due to siloed tools; this helps unify them.
1. HubSpot
Key features / explanations:
- AI-powered agents: For example, the “Customer Agent” handles support tickets, leverages knowledge base content to answer queries. HubSpot+1
- Predictive lead scoring & segmentation: AI analyses behaviour data and suggests which leads are most likely to convert. TechRadar+1
- Content & marketing automation: AI assists in crafting emails, blog posts, workflows in the marketing hub.
How you might use it: - For a funnel: Use HubSpot to capture leads → allow AI to segment leads by behaviour → send tailored content in the nurture sequence → hand high-intent leads to sales.
- Use the Customer Agent to free up human support for only higher-complexity queries, improving conversion likelihood by reducing friction.
Strengths & things to watch: - Very integrated: CRM + marketing + service in one place, so fewer silos.
2. SendPulse
Key features / explanations:
- Automation flows (“Automation 360”): You define triggers (e.g., “abandoned cart”, “new user registered”), set follow-up sequence across channels. SendPulse
- Multi-channel capability: Not just email—SMS, web push, WhatsApp, Telegram and more, all usable in one flow. SendPulse
- Behavioral triggers + CRM integration: Allows you to send messages based on user behaviour and stage in pipeline.
How you might use it: - In a funnel: After a lead lands (top-of-funnel), you send email + SMS nurture sequence if they don’t convert within X days.
- For e-commerce: If a cart is abandoned, the SMS + web-push via SendPulse triggers recovery messages, boosting conversion.
Strengths & things to watch: - Very good if you want broad channel coverage with automation.
- Need to ensure your contact data is clean and you have permission for each channel (regulation/norms vary by country).
3. involve.me
Key features / explanations:
- Drag & drop editor + logic jumps: Create multi-step flows where user answers determine next step. Involve.me+1
- AI funnel builder: You input a prompt (e.g., “I want a lead gen funnel for fitness coaching”), optionally your website URL, and it generates a branded funnel with forms/logic. Involve.me+1
- Analytics & drop-off tracking: See where users abandon the funnel, so you can refine. Involve.me+1
- Integrations: Push lead data to CRMs, ESPs, etc. Involve.me+1
How you might use it: - For top-/mid-funnel: Build an interactive quiz on your website (“Which level are you?”) which segments users, leads them into relevant content or offers.
- Use calculators (e.g., cost-calculator) as lead magnets, capture contact info, then route qualified leads into sales sequence.
Strengths & things to watch: - Excellent for engagement and qualification early in funnel via interactive content.
- The AI builder speeds things up, but you’ll still want to review for brand voice, accuracy.
- Some layering cost/features may require higher plans. (User feedback: price vs usage) Reddit
4. Gumloop
Key features / explanations:
- Visual workflow builder: Drag nodes, define logic, loops, conditionals. docs.gumloop.com+1

- Integrations & triggers: Connect with Gmail, Slack, Salesforce, spreadsheets, webhooks. Gumloop | AI Automation Framework+1
- Enterprise-grade features: scalability, security, no coding needed. eliteai.tools
How you might use it: - After a lead is captured in your funnel: Use Gumloop to automatically enrich the lead (e.g., fetch website info, social profiles), score it, then route to correct salesperson or send a tailored nurture path.
- On retention/upsell side: Monitor user behaviour, trigger automated offers when conditions met (e.g., “user hasn’t logged in for 30 days → send re-engagement email”).
Strengths & things to watch: - Very powerful for automating complex flows without relying on devs.
- You’ll still need strategy: thinking through triggers, what data to pull, what conditions to apply.
