How deals are created
Yuzu tries to resolve the buyer account when a transcript arrives. The safest signals are provider account IDs, CRM IDs, meeting metadata, and email or domain data from notetakers and integrations. When a transcript includes a buyer email, Yuzu can also create the primary contact for the deal. The goal is to avoid making the seller paste the same buyer name, email, and LinkedIn context again after the meeting has already supplied it. When the source does not provide enough reliable metadata, the call stays visible as an unassigned call. It is not deleted or hidden. You can assign it later. Historical imports are more conservative. Older transcripts are kept searchable and assignable, but Yuzu does not automatically create a fresh deal for every old meeting outside the recent-meeting window. Unassigned calls still open inside Deals. Yuzu creates a temporary call page for the transcript so list view and pipeline view behave the same way. After assignment or merge, the call becomes part of the destination deal thread.What a deal contains
- Calls and transcripts
- TLDR videos
- Public Yuzu Links
- Email threads, replies, draft suggestions, opens, and clicks
- LinkedIn post drafts, published posts, reactions, and comments
- Quotes, objections, next steps, and other insights
- Full-call search moments
- Zu-generated next actions and completed actions
- Manual notes, uploaded files, and pasted transcripts
Merge and assignment
Merging deals does not delete source records. It only changes the grouping so the deal thread, search, insights, and future recap context use the combined history. Use merge when:- A notetaker could not identify the customer.
- Two customer names normalize differently.
- A buyer changed domains or showed up through a different source.
- A manual upload belongs to an existing deal.
Pipeline fields
Deals can carry pipeline stage and status so the list can be filtered by in-flight, stalled, closed-won, and lost work. These fields are lightweight Yuzu fields, not a full CRM replacement.Signal and next actions
The deal agent reads the deal thread and writes a signal level, signal reason, next actions, and prior completed actions. Every active deal should keep the standard buyer package visible:- TLDR recap: the short recap video the buyer can replay or forward.
- Business-case page: the buyer-facing page that packages the recap, summary, CTA, transcript, and product assets.
