Your CRM just got a brain.
Upsert® Assist brings the world's leading AI models (Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini) directly into SugarAI (formerly SugarCRM), so your team spends less time managing data and more time closing deals.
SugarAI is evolving. Your workflow should too.
Built for SugarAI's new era
SugarCRM became SugarAI for a reason: the future of CRM is intelligent. Upsert® Assist is the integration that bridges that vision with day-to-day reality. We've built it to be fast to deploy, easy to use, and immediately valuable for sales reps on the front lines and admins managing the stack. Work inside SugarAI and get AI-powered summaries, drafts, updates, insights, and action items without ever leaving the app. With Upsert® Assist, you also have the ability to connect directly to SugarAI via MCP and query your CRM data directly from Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini's native interfaces.
No disruption. No new logins. Just faster, smarter CRM work, everywhere you need it.
Precision AI. Not a best guess.
Most AI tools cast a wide net and hope for the best. Upsert® Assist works differently. In-app prompts run against a strictly defined context: only the data that's actually relevant to the task at hand is considered. That means no hallucinated insights, no inconsistent results, and no second-guessing whether the AI looked at the right records.
When your team acts on AI output, they can trust it.
Enterprise-ready context and controls
Admins configure which LLM providers and capabilities are available to each team. In-app AI runs against record-scoped context—the fields, notes, and related records tied to the task—not your entire database. Your company's LLM accounts and API credentials stay under your control; Upsert® Assist connects SugarAI to the models you already trust without asking users to paste CRM data into external chat windows.
Everything your team needs. Right inside SugarAI.
In-app AI chat with Alfred
Meet Alfred, your SugarAI assistant! Whether it's a saved prompt or an off-the-cuff question, Alfred is one click away from answering any questions you have about your data. Think of Alfred as your dedicated CRM expert available 24/7, no ticket required.
Saved prompts
Give your team repeatable wins. Admins can define saved prompts—pre-built questions and instructions tailored to your sales process, support workflows, or compliance needs—so Alfred delivers consistent, on-brand answers every time. Reps pick a prompt from the list or ask Alfred anything ad hoc.
Record summaries
Get an instant, AI-generated summary of any account, contact, opportunity, or lead. Walk into every call prepared, not scrambling.
Intelligent field updates
Paste in call notes or a meeting recap and let Upsert® Assist update the relevant CRM fields automatically. Clean data without the manual grind.
Email drafting assistance
Generate contextually aware email drafts based on the record you're viewing. Personalized, on-brand, and ready to send — or tweak as needed.
Action item identification & creation
Upsert® Assist reads through notes and conversations to surface action items and creates the reminders in SugarAI automatically.
Native LLM app access via MCP
Not always in SugarAI? No problem. Upsert® Assist supports MCP integration so you can query your CRM data directly from Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini's native apps — bringing your pipeline intelligence wherever your AI workflow already lives.
Your AI, your choice
Not locked into one model. Upsert® Assist connects with your company's LLM accounts:
- Claude by Anthropic — nuanced, thoughtful, trusted for enterprise use
- ChatGPT by OpenAI — the world's most recognized AI
- Gemini by Google — powerful, with deep Google ecosystem integration
Use one or all three. Mix and match based on your team's preference or use case.
Works with your conversation stack
Already capturing meetings and calls in SugarAI? Pair Upsert® Assist with Upsert Connector for Fireflies and Upsert Engage to turn transcripts and call notes into summaries, field updates, and action items—without copy-paste between tools.
With Fireflies importing meeting intelligence and Call Center logging every conversation, Upsert® Assist helps your team act on that data the moment it lands in the CRM.
