Problem

lead routing between Intercom, HubSpot, Twilio is error-prone when finance teams reconcile billing, invoices, or ledger entries by hand.

Automating validations before writes to HubSpot lowers reconciliation risk.

Workflow

Scheduled pull from Intercom → reconciliation rules → write summary to HubSpot.
