Context layer
A context layer makes relevant business information, definitions and operating guidance available to an AI application. It can draw on documents, structured records and other approved sources.
Also known as: GTM context layer, AI context layer
In a sales team

Check which version of the playbook is used and how the system handles conflicting deal notes.
