The follow-ups your consultants never get to.
Most deals are won on the fourth or fifth follow-up. Engage finds the right candidates and clients from your own placements, writes the sequence and sends every follow-up from each consultant's own inbox.
From a question to a conversation.
No new system for your consultants to learn and nothing to sync. Engage is a tab in the Salesforce your desk already lives in.
Install and connect
We install Engage in your Salesforce with you on an onboarding call. Each consultant connects their own Gmail or Outlook.
Same afternoon · No codeAsk for the people
Type who you want in plain English. Engage turns it into a search you can check, across your candidates and clients.
AI Campaigns · Saved searchesAI writes, you approve
Engage drafts every step and a personal first line for each person. Nothing sends until you switch it on.
Your copy, your callSends at a human pace
One email at a time from each consultant's own inbox, in working hours, with follow-ups going first.

A reply stops the sequence and lands in your inbox, flagged if they're interested. Out of office? It waits.

Engage checks your CRM before you're in and enrols the next right people into the right campaign. Nothing slips through the cracks.
It knows your candidates, clients and placements.
A standalone outreach tool can only see what you upload into it. Engage sees every placement, job, client and conversation already in your CRM, and that changes what it can do.
Ask for the people. Engage knows your placements.
Type who you want, like "hiring managers at companies we've placed candidates at in the last 12 months", and Engage finds them from your own candidates, clients and placements. You see the search it ran before anything happens.
- Plain English in, a checked list of people out
- Works with your placements, jobs and record types
- Save the searches your team runs every weekNEW
- Skips anyone opted out or without an email
The sequence writes itself. You stay in charge.
Tell Engage what the campaign should achieve and it drafts every step: a friendly nudge, something useful, a polite sign-off. Add {{ai_intro}} and each person gets an opening line written from their own record.
- Multi-step sequences with the delays you choose
- Personal first lines from your CRM data
- A/B test your subject lines
- Nothing sends until you switch it on
From your own inbox, at a human pace.
No shared sending domain and no marketing IP. Every email goes from the sender's own Gmail or Outlook, one at a time, in working hours, at a human pace with daily limits you control. It lands like a normal email because it is one.
- Gmail and Outlook, connected with a secure sign-in
- Follow-ups send before new outreach
- Daily limits you control, per sender if you need them
- Opens and clicks tracked, with email-scanner clicks filtered out
Replies, already sorted.
Engage watches every connected inbox. When someone replies, their sequence stops and the reply is flagged on their record: interested, not interested, out of office or referral.
- Any reply stops the sequence
- Interested replies flagged straight to the owner
- Out of office? It waits until they're back
- Replies from a different address or a forward still countNEW
- Bounces and unsubscribes recorded in Salesforce
Automations and Opportunities, every morning.
Switch an automation on and Engage checks your CRM before your consultants are in, then enrols the right candidates and clients into the right campaign. The Opportunities tab lists who else is worth a call.
- Placements ending in the next 90 days
- Contacts who've changed company, and new contacts at existing clients
- No-reply re-engagement for anyone who went quiet
- Build your own: describe who to reach in plain English
- Opportunities tab: add to a campaign or dismiss in one click
A whole team sending. Nobody doubling up.
The fastest way to lose a prospect is two emails from two colleagues on the same morning. Engage checks before every send, not just when someone is added.
One live sequence per person
Checked across your whole team, so a prospect is never in two colleagues' sequences at once.
Blocklist checked at send time
Block a domain and it's respected on the very next send, however the person was added.
Unsubscribes honoured
One click to opt out, recorded on the Salesforce record and respected by every campaign.
Replies matched by thread
A reply from a PA, a personal address or a forward still stops the sequence.
Built by an agency. Run by one every day.
Engage was built inside a UK recruitment agency that runs on Salesforce, to fix the follow-ups its own consultants weren't getting to. Its consultants still use it every day, so every release runs on real BD and candidate campaigns before it reaches yours.
Built inside a UK recruitment agency, and used there every day. Figures from that agency's own Engage org, September 2026.

Per consultant. Never per email.

Is Engage really inside Salesforce?
Yes. It's a managed package installed in your own org. Campaigns, members, emails, opens and replies are Salesforce records on your Contacts and Leads, so you can report on them like anything else. Sending, reply checks and AI run through Overdrive's secure service.
Does it understand candidates, clients and placements?
Yes. During setup Engage reads your org's data model, so AI Campaigns and Automations can work with your placements, jobs and record types such as Candidate and Client Contact. It was built inside a recruitment agency on Salesforce.
Does it really send from our own inboxes?
Yes. Each person connects their own Gmail or Outlook. Emails go out one at a time, at a human pace, in working hours and within daily limits you control, with follow-ups sent before new outreach.
What stops two of us emailing the same person?
Engage allows one live sequence per person across your whole team. It also checks your blocklist at the moment of sending and honours every unsubscribe.
What if someone replies from a different address?
Engage matches replies by email thread as well as by address, so a reply from a colleague, a personal address or a forward still stops the sequence.
What does the AI see, and do we need our own AI account?
The AI works from the fields on the records you're working with and the instructions you give it. AI features are part of Pro and run through Overdrive's secure service, so you don't need your own AI account. If you'd rather, you can plug in your own Anthropic key.
How long does setup take?
Most teams send their first campaign the same afternoon. Every subscription includes an onboarding call where we install Engage with you, connect mailboxes and build your first campaign.
Is Engage on the AppExchange?
Not yet. We install Engage directly into your Salesforce with Salesforce's standard package installer, on your onboarding call. An AppExchange listing will follow later.
