Rapid RevOps Tool Prototyping with Loveable

The VP of Sales walked into my office with a specific request: “I need a tool where reps can input a prospect’s tech stack, and it shows them which of our case studies to reference based on similar implementations.” I estimated it would take our dev team three weeks to build, test, and deploy—assuming they even had bandwidth.

Instead, I spent an afternoon with Loveable and shipped a working prototype by end of day. The sales team started using it immediately, gave feedback, and I iterated to version 2 the next morning. What would have been a multi-sprint engineering project became a same-day RevOps solution.

This is the power of no-code/AI-assisted development for RevOps—solving unique workflow challenges without waiting for engineering resources.

Why RevOps Needs Custom Tools

The Feature Gap Commercial tools (HubSpot, Salesforce, Zapier) are powerful but generic. They don’t solve your company’s specific workflow quirks, calculation logic, or data visualization needs.

The Engineering Bottleneck Requesting custom development from engineering means competing with product roadmap priorities. RevOps projects rarely win against customer-facing features.

The Spreadsheet Trap Many teams resort to complex Excel/Google Sheets formulas. These become unmaintainable, break easily, and create knowledge silos when the creator leaves.

The Speed of Business RevOps needs change fast—new territories, updated commission structures, revised lead scoring. Waiting weeks for IT to update tools means operating with outdated logic.

What Is Loveable?

Loveable is an AI-powered application builder that generates working code from natural language descriptions. You describe what you want to build, and Loveable creates:

• Frontend UI (React/HTML)
• Backend logic (if needed)
• Database schema
• API integrations
• Deployment-ready applications

Unlike traditional no-code tools that limit you to pre-built components, Loveable generates actual code—which you can deploy, customize, and extend.

RevOps Use Cases for Loveable

Use Case 1: Lead Scoring Calculator

The Problem: Your lead scoring model uses complex logic based on firmographics, intent signals, and engagement. Reps need to manually calculate scores to prioritize outreach.

The Loveable Solution:

Prompt to Loveable:

Build a lead scoring calculator with these inputs:

Company Size:
- 1-10 employees: 5 points
- 11-50: 10 points
- 51-200: 20 points
- 201-1000: 30 points
- 1000+: 40 points

Industry Match:
- Target industry: 25 points
- Adjacent industry: 10 points
- Other: 0 points

Intent Signals (checkboxes):
- Visited pricing page: 15 points
- Downloaded case study: 10 points
- Attended webinar: 20 points
- Requested demo: 30 points

Source Quality:
- Inbound demo request: 30 points
- Referral: 25 points
- Event: 15 points
- Cold outbound: 5 points

Calculate total score and show classification:
- 80-100: Hot Lead (red background)
- 60-79: Warm Lead (yellow background)
- 40-59: Cold Lead (blue background)
- 0-39: Disqualified (gray background)

Include a "Copy to Clipboard" button that formats the score and reasoning for CRM notes.

Loveable Output:

• Clean web form with all inputs
• Real-time score calculation
• Color-coded priority display
• Copy button that generates formatted text:

Lead Score: 85/100 (Hot Lead)

Breakdown:
- Company Size (201-1000): 30 points
- Industry Match (Target): 25 points
- Visited pricing + Downloaded case study: 25 points
- Source (Inbound Demo): 30 points

Recommended Action: Contact within 4 hours

Deployment: Host on Vercel (free tier) and share URL with sales team. They bookmark it and use it during discovery calls.

Use Case 2: Territory Assignment Tool

The Problem: You have complex territory rules based on geography, company size, industry, and existing account relationships. Routing logic is buried in Zapier or manual decisions.

The Prompt:

Create a territory assignment tool:

Inputs:
- Company Name
- Industry (dropdown)
- Employee Count (number)
- State/Country (dropdown)
- Is this an existing customer? (yes/no)

Territory Rules:
1. If existing customer → assign to current account owner (user enters owner name)
2. If company > 1000 employees → Enterprise team (regardless of geography)
3. If Financial Services industry → Fintech specialist team
4. If US company:
   - West Coast states (CA, OR, WA, NV, AZ) → West team
   - East Coast states (NY, NJ, MA, PA, CT) → East team
   - Other → Central team
5. If UK/Europe → EMEA team
6. If APAC countries → APAC team
7. If none of above → General queue

Output:
- Assigned Territory/Team
- Assigned Rep (based on team)
- Reasoning (show which rule matched)
- Confidence level (high/medium/low based on data completeness)
- Slack message template to notify assigned rep

Value:

• Sales ops uses this tool to manually route complex cases
• Provides transparency (shows reasoning)
• Can be used to validate automated routing logic
• Generates consistent Slack notifications

Use Case 3: Commission Calculator

The Problem: Your commission structure has multiple tiers, accelerators, splits, and special bonuses. Reps constantly ask “how much will I make if I close this deal?”

The Prompt:

Build a commission calculator:

Inputs:
- Deal Size (currency)
- Deal Type (New Business / Expansion / Renewal)
- Rep's Current Quarter Attainment (percentage)
- Number of Months (for renewals)
- Is this an overlay/split deal? If yes, split percentage

Commission Structure:
New Business:
- Base rate: 10% of ACV
- Accelerator: 15% if rep at >100% quota
- Accelerator: 12% if rep at 80-99% quota

Expansion:
- Base rate: 8% of ACV
- No accelerators

Renewal:
- Base rate: 2% of ACV
- Only if renewal is at same or higher value

Splits:
- If split deal, multiply final commission by split percentage

Output:
- Base commission amount
- Accelerator bonus (if applicable)
- Total commission after split
- Tax estimate (assume 25% withholding)
- Take-home estimate
- Comparison to average deal commission (show if this is above/below average)

Show a visual breakdown (pie chart or bar chart) of:
- Base commission
- Accelerator
- Tax withholding
- Net take-home

Advanced Features:

• Save calculation history (connect to Supabase database)
• Show rep’s total YTD commissions
• Export calculations to PDF for record keeping

Best Practices for RevOps Tools

Start Simple Build the minimum viable tool first. Add features based on actual usage, not hypothetical needs.

Design for Mobile Many reps use phones. Ensure tools work on mobile browsers.

Provide Context Include help text, tooltips, and examples. Not everyone will understand the logic immediately.

Make it Shareable Generate URLs that can be bookmarked, shared in Slack, or embedded in CRM.

Log Usage Track when and how often tools are used. This helps prioritize improvements and justify ROI.

Version Control Keep a changelog. When you update a tool, note what changed.
