From Overwhelmed to Optimised: How Interprefy Boosted Sales Efficiency by 27% with AI and HubSpot

The Challenge: When Rapid Growth Creates a New Kind of Bottleneck

Interprefy is a global provider of live interpretation services. Demand for their solutions grew rapidly, and with it came a high-quality problem: too many inbound enquiries for the sales team to process efficiently.

 

Reps were spending more time sorting through unqualified leads than speaking with high-value prospects. Interprefy attempted to reduce noise by adding more qualification fields to their web forms, but this increased friction for prospects and conflicted with their friendly, supportive tone of voice. It also failed to deliver the structured information the sales team needed.

 

As enquiry volumes increased, the challenge shifted from operational to technical. Interprefy needed a more advanced method to capture, enrich and route inbound data within HubSpot. Standard forms and workflows could not support the level of qualification accuracy, data consistency or routing logic required.

 

A custom multi-system solution was needed to streamline qualification, protect the user experience and scale with future demand.

The Solution: A Multi-System AI Qualification Framework Built Around HubSpot

Interprefy explored a new model for qualification: using an AI agent to manage early-stage discovery, while Huble supported CRM automation and HubSpot alignment. The goal was simple. Let AI handle the repetitive, structured work so the sales team could focus on meaningful conversations.

 

A short, frictionless web form captured inbound enquiries directly into HubSpot. Ask Breeze enriched the contact record using the “Tell us more about your inquiry” field, providing context that would later help the system identify mis-fit enquiries.

 

From there, Make.com launched automations immediately after a form was submitted. These automations triggered outbound AI phone calls through Vapi. Within minutes, the AI agent “Brad” contacted the prospect, explained Interprefy’s services and asked a structured set of qualifying questions. Responses were captured in real time.

 

Once each call ended, Vapi compiled the structured conversation data and full transcript, then sent them into n8n via webhook. n8n processed these inputs and updated the relevant HubSpot properties, creating a detailed record comparable to an SDR’s introductory qualification notes.

 

HubSpot remained the source of truth throughout the journey. Information flowed continuously between Make.com, Vapi and n8n through workflow-triggered automations, ensuring every contact record was enriched with accurate, timely and structured qualification data.

The Automation Journey: How the System Works End-to-End

01

Form Submission & Data Enrichment

A streamlined form captured inbound data in HubSpot. The Ask Breeze integration enriched key properties using the open text field, helping identify mis-fit enquiries early.

02

AI-Driven Agent Telephone Calls

Within 15 minutes, the AI agent contacted the lead, asked structured qualifying questions and collected responses. Each interaction was recorded, transcribed and stored.
03

Follow-Up Email if No Call Is Answered

If the call went unanswered, the system sent a follow-up email asking the same critical questions via a short form.

04

Automated Lead Routing & Categorisation

HubSpot workflows routed qualified, mis-fit and nurture-stage leads to their respective teams, ensuring every prospect received an appropriate next step even when AI calls were not completed.

“We had so many leads coming through that it became a bottleneck for our sales team,” explains Sven. “Our reps were overwhelmed, struggling to identify which leads were worth pursuing. The sheer volume was drowning out the quality.”

The Impact: A Scalable Model for Future AI-Driven Growth

The framework improved follow-up quality, reduced sales noise and enabled deeper, more focused conversations.

 

Every qualified lead was handed to sales with structured details on motivation, timing, budget and language requirements — all collected automatically and stored in HubSpot.

 

The architecture gives Interprefy a scalable model for future growth, built around consistent data capture and automated routing. With HubSpot at the centre, the approach can be extended across new markets, additional languages and adjacent use cases such as chatbots, automated follow-up content or conversational web widgets.

AI Usage: How AI and HubSpot Worked Together

This project shows how AI can enhance, not replace, human sales efforts. The AI agent handled consistent early-stage qualification, asked structured questions and captured real-time insights. Human reps focused on the strategic conversations that required expertise.

 

By pairing conversational AI with HubSpot automation, Interprefy created a qualification process that was fast, structured and customer-friendly. The system continues to evolve as scripts improve, language coverage expands and new AI capabilities become available.
