Smart Reply Suggestions (Messages tab)

Spear provides AI-generated suggested replies when responding to messages.

Instead of a single suggestion, you’ll see three reply options to choose from, helping you move conversations forward more effectively.

Types of suggested replies

There are two types of reply suggestions:

  • Push for a meeting
  • Continue the conversation

Spear automatically determines which type of reply is more appropriate based on the conversation context.

How it works

  • If a meeting is relevant:
    • You’ll see 1 “Push for a meeting” option
    • And 2 “Continue conversation” options
  • If a meeting is not relevant:
    • You’ll see 3 “Continue conversation” options

The suggestions are ordered based on relevance and performance.

First, Select the M

essages Tab

  1. Suggestion 1: "Push for a meeting." - shown when a prospect shows strong interest or engagement.

  1. Suggestion 2: "Continue conversation" - shown when a meeting may be relevant.

3. Suggestion 3: "Continue conversation" - shown when a meeting is not relevant.

Improving suggestions over time

When you send a message that matches one of the suggested replies:

  • Spear records which type of suggestion was used
  • This helps improve future recommendations and ranking

Key takeaway

  • Edit and refine messages directly inside Spear with AI Message Editing
  • Choose from smart, context-aware reply suggestions
  • Let Spear guide when it makes sense to push for a meeting
  • Stay in control while speeding up your messaging workflow

AI messaging is designed to help you work faster — you decide what to send.
