Open-Sourcing Comp AI: A Sales Agent That Rebuilds CRM with an Evidence Ledger
aigclink · x · 2026-08-03
Comp AI has open-sourced an agentic-first sales research CRM. The core idea is that traditional CRMs are just databases with forms, whereas this product centers on a durable agent that independently schedules and conducts customer research.
Four engineering highlights stand out:
- Independent Scheduling: The agent uses its own queue with FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED to prevent overlapping tasks, with automatic lease release on crashes.
- Zero Intelligence in API: NestJS only logs events into the queue; the agent decides what they mean, preventing logic drift between services.
- No Confidence Scores: To avoid sycophantic hallucinations, the system uses an evidence ledger. Strong evidence updates records directly, while weak evidence becomes a suggestion for human review.
- Strict Sandboxing: The sandbox denies all outbound network access and database credentials to prevent leaks, running web scraping at the app level.
The system includes 18 custom tools and 4 markdown skills, capable of functioning without external API keys by using local data, though it is heavily tied to the Vercel ecosystem.
