The Traditional HubSpot Way

Creating a contact in HubSpot requires:

  1. Navigate to Contacts in the main menu
  2. Click Create contact
  3. Fill in the First name field
  4. Fill in the Last name field
  5. Fill in the Email field
  6. Fill in the Company field
  7. Add any additional properties
  8. Click Create contact

Each field requires clicking, typing, and tabbing. For a single contact, this takes 30-60 seconds. For bulk entry, it adds up quickly.

The Shabe Way

With Shabe, say it all at once:

"Create a contact John Smith at Acme Inc, john@acme.com"

Shabe parses your natural language and creates the contact with all relevant fields populated.

What Shabe Understands

Shabe extracts information intelligently:

  • "John Smith" → First name: John, Last name: Smith
  • "at Acme Inc" → Company: Acme Inc
  • "john@acme.com" → Email: john@acme.com
  • "VP of Sales" → Job Title: VP of Sales
  • "555-123-4567" → Phone: 555-123-4567

Example Queries

"Create contact Sarah Johnson, sarah@techcorp.com, VP Marketing at TechCorp"
"Add new contact Mike Brown, mike@startup.io, phone 555-987-6543"
"Create a contact for jane@bigco.com at BigCo"

Confirmation Flow

Shabe shows you a preview before creating:

Creating contact:
- Name: John Smith

This ensures accuracy while maintaining speed.

After Creating

Once created, Shabe offers next steps:

  • "Create a deal for this contact"

Bulk Contact Creation
