The Best Close Alternative for Growing Businesses
Close covers CRM. Vitelligence starts with one high-value client-service workflow, proves the operating model, then expands into adjacent workflows as the pilot produces evidence.
Founder-led working session before any pilot commitment.

How to Evaluate a Move from Close
Start with one workflow before committing to a broader migration.
Identify the Pilot Data
Identify the contacts, deals, projects, or support records needed to test one workflow from Close. Keep the first data set narrow enough to validate quickly.
Map the Workflow
Use the working session to map the current workflow, owners, decision points, reporting needs, and success criteria.
Configure the Pilot
Configure only the fields, roles, workflow states, and reports needed for the pilot. Add integrations only when they are required to prove value.
Run With Human Review
Use AI assistance for summaries, drafts, routing suggestions, and reporting support while keeping approval and exception handling with the team.
Decide Whether to Expand
Review pilot results against the agreed metrics, then decide whether to expand, pause, or adjust the rollout path.
