Pipeline Insights
Aviso's pipeline management benefits from the ability to project pipeline performance backward and forward, helping sales operations and sales leadership teams understand and interrogate their deal pipeline, assess pipeline quality and health, and get advanced insights on planning and building new pipelines for future quarters. Aviso, being the best sales pipeline management tool, helps in three key areas —
- Pipeline Inspection: Our AI-guided pipeline analytics helps with objective, unbiased pipeline inspection. The tool suggests when and where reps need to strengthen their pipeline management. With AI-driven insights, your sales forecast can better inform pipelines to drive timely team actions.
- Pipeline Reports: Our pipeline reports show the historical, current, and projected pipeline status. It helps sales leaders learn how their pipeline has evolved over the quarter and understand the quality of current and future pipelines. Reps can also compare historical pipeline progress during different periods to understand how different deals affect pipeline health.
- Opportunities Maps: Aviso Opportunity Maps (a.k.a. Deal Maps) help manage high-risk deals using AI. The AI automatically searches the entire portfolio and identifies deals that are likely to close. It helps sales teams run their forecast calls better with specific guidance on key deals.
The Aviso Advantage:
- Aviso’s AI pinpoints precisely how, when, and where a pipeline changed so that teams can prevent and remedy deal slippage.
- It helps understand if a good mix of deals supports the pipeline coverage to hit quota with greater certainty.
- Aviso AI surfaces analytics to support pipeline building and inform if 2X or 3X coverage is needed to hit the target (starting two quarters prior).
Forecasting Insights
Aviso’s cloud-based sales forecasting and insights platform drives forecast accuracy and enables executive planning withan accurate forecast on Day 1 of the quarter. Aviso's ML uses the forecast history of the last 6-8 quarters to generate accurate forecasts for upcoming quarters. Additionally, Aviso generates forecast explanations providing reasoning for forecast numbers. With such forecasting insights powered by best-in-class machine learning algorithms, managers can provide data-driven,customized coaching sessions. Sales teams get insight into all deals called in and out of forecast with deal level forecasting and this helps them close deals faster. Sales users can audit their trail of judgment applied across all levels of management (roles, deal amounts, CRM fields), immediately see discrepancies and address disagreements between members of their team on whether a deal is in or outof forecast to maintain forecast accuracy.
Forecasting Configuration and Process
Aviso’s forecasting capabilities support a range of use cases, including opportunity splits. The AI-guided platform includes a time-series database (tracks every change, from every object, every field, and every connected dataset), an event-based nudge engine, and auto-machine learning that works across implicit and explicit signals (judgement onmoving stages, categories, etc.) and implicit behaviours to drive timely insights and actions. This helps close the gap between forecasting and deal execution and provides 98%+forecast accuracy for its users.
Aviso’s new-age capabilities around revenue intelligence include Unified Forecasting (top-down forecast and bottom-upforecast) that blends the best of human and AI judgments with the most sophisticated global roll-up forecasting in the industry.

The ability of Aviso's platform to work seamlessly across multiple CRMs (and multiple instances) such as Salesforce, Dynamics, or Hubspot, legacy databases like ERPs, Break-Fix CS, ticketing tools, andother revenue signals locked in email, calendar, meetings and chats has led to global deployments and expansions at Honeywell, Armis, DataStax, AppAnnie, Ivanti, Secure CodeWarrior, RingCentral, Elastic and Marlin Equity Partners.
Commercial Model and Pricing Transparency
Aviso’s consumption-based pricing model enables customers to pay for what they use or consume – no more, no less. Our customers can easily equate value to price with the flexibility to opt for consumption pricing if the daily/weekly average use goes down. Thus the customers are empowered to take advantage of only the features and options they need, giving them greater control over their budgets since pricing is directly related to usage.
Following the transparent pricing strategy, Aviso also offers performance-based pricing with variable pricing bands connected to the accuracy of the forecast. This pricing model varies, at different tiers of quota attainment, based on the AI accuracy and the achieved outcome. Connecting AI accuracy with rep performance gives our customers more transparent tools and support.
