Needle is a proactive AI agent for revenue teams that mirrors your own permissions exactly.
Grounded in available product and source data
A proactive AI agent for revenue teams doesn't wait to be asked — that's the entire premise behind Needle, which identifies ICP-fit accounts, researches buying committees, and launches outreach sequences on its own rather than reacting only when a rep types a request.
Permission mirroring is the specific design choice that separates it from a broadly-provisioned bot: the site frames it directly as 'it can do what you can do, and cannot do what you cannot do,' meaning access scales with whoever it's working for rather than a blanket IT-configured permission set. It lives inside Slack as a conversational interface — 'message it like a teammate' — but reaches well beyond chat, connecting to CRM, email, calendar, documents, files, spreadsheets, and browser tasks across 3,000+ total integrations.
Proactive monitoring is where it goes further than a typical sales tool: it spots buying signals and role changes without a manual prompt, flags stalling deals with suggested re-engagement tactics, and builds reusable skills over time by remembering how a specific person actually works. Named integrations span the usual GTM stack — HubSpot, Salesforce, and Pipedrive for CRM; Gmail, Outlook, and Zoom for communication; LinkedIn, Apollo, and Clay for lead data.
Model choice isn't locked in either: 32+ models are supported, including multiple Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Grok variants, with the site stating intelligent routing to whichever model fits a given task rather than vendor lock-in. On compliance, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, and CCPA are all listed, with data stated to never train external models and to stay scoped as private operating context. The page references three pricing tiers by name but doesn't detail what separates them, directing to a separate pricing page — worth checking there directly before assuming a specific cost or feature split.
No — permission mirroring is the core design constraint, meaning it can do what its user can do and nothing more, rather than operating on a separate, broader IT-configured permission set.
Both — Slack is the conversational entry point, but it can also interact with files, spreadsheets, and browser tasks directly rather than being limited to API-based actions alone.
No — it supports 32+ models across multiple providers and routes tasks to whichever model fits best, which the site frames specifically as avoiding vendor lock-in.
A role change at a target account, or a deal that's gone quiet for too long — signals that require actively watching an account rather than something a busy rep would think to check for manually.
Not on the main product page — it references three tiers by name but doesn't break down what separates them, directing instead to a separate pricing page for specifics.

Hey Product Hunt, Jan here, cofounder of Needle. We spent months talking to 100+ GTM and RevOps leaders, and the same thing kept coming up: the work that actually moves deals isn't the selling. It's everything around it. Researching accounts, chasing stalled deals, prepping for calls, keeping the CRM honest, finding the right case study at the right moment. The context that wins deals is scattered across HubSpot, Slack, Gong and email, and reps drown in it. Most sales AI waits for you to ask it something. That never solved the real problem. So we built Needle to work like a GTM engineer that sits on your team. It's proactive: it watches your pipeline and acts before you ask. It spots a deal going quiet and drafts the follow-up. It preps you before every call. It tidies the CRM on its own. It surfaces the buying signal worth acting on and ignores the noise. All of it lives in Slack and Teams, where your team already works. You make the calls. Needle handles the busywork around them. It acts through your existing permissions, so it can do what you can do and nothing you can't, and your context and memory stay portable and fully yours. No lock-in. Not another dashboard. Think of it as your right hand to closed-won.
