Plain language for the booking terms Hadef AI uses.

Core terms

Show Brain

The persistent memory of your show. Voice notes, past guests, audience profile, tone rules, pitching intelligence. Every pitch draft is informed by it.

Golden Thread

The overlap between something a guest has said, something your audience cares about, and the unexplored question that sits at the intersection. The reason the pitch works.

Hook Quote

A verbatim line from a real public source, spoken by the guest, used as the opening of the pitch. Must pass QA Check 1 (accuracy) and Check 4 (ownership).

Concept

The episode premise. Not a topic. A premise includes the hook quote, the unexplored thread, the Hadef editorial lens, and the rationale for why this conversation with this guest at this moment is the one to have.

QA Pass

A pitch that cleared all five QA checks. Quote accuracy, URL liveness, specificity, quote ownership, confidence score. The bar for auto-greenlit pitches.

Pipeline

The eight stages a prospect moves through. Discover, Following, Drafting, QA, Sent, Replies, Booked, Declined. Visible as the funnel view inside the app.

Following

The watch list of guests you haven't pitched yet, or pitched and are waiting on. A new public signal from one of them puts a fresh angle back in your queue.

Workflow

A configurable send sequence, in development. Today the schedule is yours to keep and Hadef drafts and tracks against it.

Signal

A new public event involving a guest you're following. A podcast appearance, an article, a LinkedIn post. It surfaces in Following so you can decide whether the moment has changed.

Pitch Package

The published, shareable presentation of a pitch, in development. It will replace Google Drive links and PDF attachments.

Transcript Coverage

A quality label on the research output. STRONG (2+ valid transcripts), WEAK (1 valid or mixed), NONE (zero). Feeds into concept confidence scoring.
