Frequently asked questions

Related:

What is the SPIN deal report template?

SPIN selling lives in the questions you ask. Acta captures the situation, problem, implication and need-payoff answers from the call, so you can see which stage the buyer reached and what to ask next.

What does SPIN stand for?

Situation, Problem, Implication and Need-payoff: four kinds of questions that move a buyer from describing their situation to wanting a solution.

Does the SPIN report track the sales cycle?

Yes. It summarises the conversation by SPIN element, objections, procurement, upsell potential and next steps, so sales leaders can follow progress.

Can AI write the SPIN deal report from a meeting?

Yes. Acta records the meeting on Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams, or in person with the mobile app, and writes the SPIN deal report afterwards from what was said. Anything the meeting didn't cover is shown as missing, not made up.

Do I need a bot in the meeting to get the SPIN deal report?

No. The Acta desktop app and Chrome extension record from your own computer, so no bot joins the call. When you can't attend, the Acta notetaker can join from your calendar instead.

Is the template free to try?

Yes. Acta is free for 15 days, with unlimited recordings and transcriptions, and every report template included.
