This weekly scan checks tech stacks via PredictLeads and notifies the assigned Customer Success Manager through email so you can secure retention early.

Watch out for

The PredictLeads API may return inconsistent casing for tool names so normalize all strings to lowercase before comparison.
Email delivery can fail if the Gmail account lacks proper OAuth scopes so verify permissions in the Google Cloud Console first.
Rate limits on the API will cause workflow failures during bulk processing so add a delay node between each API call.
False positives may occur if a customer uses a free tier of a competitor tool so refine the detection logic to prioritize enterprise plans.
