CRM Insights (HubSpot) — Coming Soon
Context from your HubSpot, surfaced at the moment of the scan.
Overview
CRM Insights pulls live data from your HubSpot portal and surfaces it directly on the Create Lead and View Lead pages in the Popl mobile app, automatically, within seconds of scanning a badge.
When your rep scans a lead at an event, Popl checks whether that person or their company already exists in your HubSpot. If it does, a CRM Insights button appears on the Create Lead page showing a preview of what was found: whether they are a current customer, an open deal, a lost deal, or an existing contact. Tapping the button opens the full details including deal stage, deal value, previous interactions, and more.
The CRM Insights button also appears on the View Lead page, below the Notes field, where you can tap to open the modal or retry the lookup if no insights were previously found.
Beta notice: CRM Insights is currently in Beta. Functionality, data display, and behavior may evolve based on feedback. Please share any issues or suggestions with your Popl account team.
Requirements
CRM Insights is available to ELC (Event Lead Capture) team users with a native HubSpot integration connected to Popl.
The native HubSpot integration can be connected at the full team level, subteam level, or campaign level. CRM Insights works regardless of which level your integration is connected at. You also do not need to be actively syncing leads through the integration for CRM Insights to work.
If your HubSpot integration is not yet set up, see the HubSpot Integration guide to get connected first.
CRM Insights does not appear for DBC users, non-team users, or ELC teams without a native HubSpot connection.
CRM Insights is automatically enabled for any ELC team with a native HubSpot connection. If your team does not want it active, it can be turned off by your admin.
If your team is connected to HubSpot and Salesforce, CRM insights will be pulled entirely from your Salesforce. See details on Salesforce CRM Insights here.
How It Works
When a rep scans a badge, Popl begins enriching the lead. Once an email address is identified from enrichment, Popl automatically triggers a lookup against your HubSpot portal.
The result appears as a CRM Insights button on the Create Lead page, directly below the Notes field. The button resolves within a few seconds and shows a preview of what was found, or indicates that no matching records exist.
Tapping the button opens the full CRM Insights modal with complete details on the person and their company.

CRM Insights Button States
The button moves through the following states automatically:
Loading Appears as soon as lead enrichment begins. The button is faded and non-interactive while the lookup runs. Displayed text: "Loading CRM Insights..."
No Insights Found Displayed when enrichment completes but no matching HubSpot records are found for this person or their company. On the Create Lead page, the rep can dismiss it with the X icon. On the View Lead page, the rep can tap it to retry the lookup manually.
Insights Found The button becomes active and shows a preview of the insight found. Tap to open the full CRM Insights modal.
What the Preview Shows
The button displays one of the following previews depending on what was found in HubSpot:
Closed Customer
In-Progress Deal
Closed Deal
Contact (if no deal associated with company is found)
The CRM Insights Modal
Tapping the button when insights are found opens the CRM Insights modal. This is a read-only view. No edits are made to your HubSpot data from within Popl.
The modal is organized into three sections: AI Summary, Person Info, and Company & Deal Info.

AI Summary
The top of the modal displays an AI-generated summary of everything found about this person and their company. It pulls together person-level and account-level data, including any notes on record, into a single paragraph so the rep can get up to speed quickly without reading through each field individually.
Person Info
This section appears when Popl finds an exact email match to a Contact record in your HubSpot portal.
For a matched Contact:
Type: Contact
Contact Name
Stage
Owner
Created Date
Segments: if none on record, shown as N/A. Tap "See All" to view the full list.
Notes: up to 2 notes shown, each expandable inline. Tap "See All Notes" to view the complete list. If no notes exist, this section is hidden entirely.
View in HubSpot: opens the record directly in HubSpot.
Company & Deal Info
This section appears when Popl finds a domain match to a company in your HubSpot portal. It displays below Person Info, or on its own if no exact person match is found.
The Company & Deal section reflects the company's current lifecycle state. There are three possible states. If a company is a Closed Customer but also has an open deal associated with it, Popl will display the Closed Customer state with details on the latest closed deal.

Refreshing CRM Insights
The modal supports pull-to-refresh. Pulling down on the modal re-triggers the HubSpot lookup and updates the "Last Updated" timestamp shown in the modal header.
On the View Lead page, if no insights were previously found, the rep can tap the retry button to manually trigger the lookup again at any time.
What CRM Insights Does Not Do
CRM Insights is a read-only feature. It does not:
Write back to HubSpot. No edits to contacts, deals, or notes can be made from within Popl.
Create new HubSpot records
Display data for Salesforce or non-HubSpot CRM integrations
Surface goal or campaign performance data from HubSpot
Appear on the web dashboard. Mobile only.
