Case Study: Built on 2,420 Sales Meetings

+55.2% revenue from the same pipeline

We analyzed 2,420 meetings and 1,281 deal outcomes from an EdTech sales team. Applied to that data, AI routing and no-show shielding would have added +55.2% in annual revenue — without hiring anyone, changing the product, or increasing ad spend.

For a $10M company, that's $5.5M/year in additional revenue.

The Problem

Their best closer was getting the same leads as their worst

An online education company ran its 5-person sales team on Calendly with round-robin routing. Every prospect was randomly assigned — and nearly one in three never showed up.

Related: the same team, segmented by prospect type, where the busiest rep closed the biggest segment at 24% and the best-fit rep closed it at 74%. Matching each segment to its best-fit rep would have closed 30 to 62% more deals.

30pp close rate gap. Rep M. closes 60.9% of deals. Rep J. closes 30.6%. Rep J. was eventually terminated — but not before handling 394 meetings at half the conversion rate.

679 no-shows per year (28.1% rate). Every rep had a no-show rate above 25%. That's 679 meetings where closers sat idle — each one a calendar slot that could have been a sale.

The Solution

AI-powered routing that protects your best closers

Two layers working together: smart matching and no-show shielding.

82%
Close prediction accuracy
Our model predicts which rep will close a given prospect with 82% accuracy — 17.6pp better than random assignment.
30pp
Close rate gap identified
AI detects underperforming reps and routes their meetings to higher-converting team members — automatically, as prospects book.
28.1%
No-show rate detected
679 meetings per year were wasted on no-shows. AI predicts who won't show up and shields your best closers from wasted slots.
+55.2%
Combined revenue increase
Smart routing + no-show shielding together — measured against actual outcomes. For this team, that's +$150,793/year.

How it works

1Prospect books a meeting through your scheduling page
2AI scores every eligible rep on probability to close this specific prospect
3Predicted no-shows are routed to lower-priority reps, protecting top closers' calendars
4Highest-scoring available rep gets the meeting — seamless to the prospect
5Outcome is tracked. Model retrains automatically. Gets smarter over time

The Impact

What changes when AI controls your routing

Before Salescadia

30pp
close rate gap — best rep at 60.9%, worst at 30.6%
679
no-shows per year · 28.1% team-wide rate
Every rep above 25% — worst at 33.3%

Round-robin routing treated every rep equally. With a 28.1% no-show rate team-wide, top closers wasted nearly a third of their calendar on prospects that never showed.

Smart routing closes the gap between your best and worst reps. No-show shielding protects your top closers from wasted meetings. Together, they compound into measurable revenue growth.

At Your Scale

What +55% looks like at different revenue levels

Same measured percentages. Your company size. The math is linear, so if it works at $273K, it works at $100M.

Methodology

How we calculated these numbers

Every statistic on this page is derived from observed data using standard ML validation techniques.

Data source

12 months of scheduling data (2,420 meetings across 5 reps) cross-referenced with 1,281 salesperson-tracked deal outcomes from a live EdTech sales team.

Model validation

Rigorous cross-validation with held-out test sets the model never saw during training. 82% accuracy, 17.6pp above random baseline.

Revenue simulation

Counterfactual analysis using smoothed close rates per rep. 679 no-shows identified from salesperson-reported outcomes — not automated tracking.

Conservative assumptions

All percentages use 100% routing (every meeting goes through the system). No-show shielding assumes freed slots are filled from the existing pipeline. No assumptions about pipeline growth.

About this engagement

An online education company in the test-prep space, with a small sales team booking thousands of free consultation calls per year through scheduling software. The data here is theirs, anonymized at their request — a test bed for AI-driven routing and no-show shielding.
