111 open leads had no rating, so nobody could sort them hot to cold, and 89 of them already had a job title to go on. Watch a ChatGPT-style question get its answer inside Salesforce, turn into a grid of those 111 leads, and end with 89 ratings saved in one reviewed change. Leave with the prompts and ChatGPT's current pricing. Recorded in a Salesforce demo org with real screens, nothing mocked up.

A question, an answer, then the records. 111 unrated leads in one grid.

The short answer

  • Looking for a ChatGPT Salesforce integration? ChatGPT can reach Salesforce through the Agentforce Sales app, in beta, and it's good at answers. When the answer is a list of records to change, you want the change made where the records live, with a review.
  • Ask the way you would in ChatGPT. Wave AI answers in plain words inside Salesforce, then puts the records in a grid when you ask.
  • Change them in one reviewed step. Count, current values and a dry run first, then one Yes. One Undo takes it back.
  • No export, no paste. Nothing is downloaded to a file or pasted into a chat. Wave AI runs in your org and is free in public beta.

It started with the kind of question you ask ChatGPT

A marketing ops lead's question, typed the way you'd type it into ChatGPT, but into Wave AI inside Salesforce:

How many open leads have no rating?Typed into Wave AI

The answer came back in a few seconds: 111 open, unconverted leads with no rating. It offered to build a grid of them, suggest ratings, or break them down by status. That's a good answer. A general chat assistant can give you one too, if it can reach your data. The difference is the next step.

The records behind the answer. 111 leads, in a grid you can edit.

The answer, in Salesforce, with the next step offered.

From the answer to the records

We asked for the leads themselves:

Show those leads in a grid with company, title, lead source and statusTyped into Wave AI

About thirty seconds later the grid was open: 111 leads, sorted by company, with the columns we named plus industry and email. It also explained the filter it used, open leads with a blank rating, so you can check it's the list you meant.

89 ratings, one change, reviewed before it saved

Then the part a chat answer can't do on its own. A lead with a real job title is worth a first call, so we rated those:

Set the rating to Warm on the leads here that have a titleTyped into Wave AI, beside the grid

Wave AI spelled it out before touching anything: 89 of the 111 leads have a title and would be set to Warm, the remaining 22 with no title would be left alone, and a dry run on 40 of them had passed. "Shall I apply this?" We said yes. All 89 were updated with no failures, and the grid refreshed to the 22 leads that still have no rating.

The fix, start to saved. 89 leads rated Warm in one reviewed change, 22 left to look at.
After: After · 22 leftBefore: Before · 111 unrated↔Before · 111 unratedAfter · 22 left
Wave AI review: 89 leads with a title will be set to Warm, 22 left unchanged
The review before anything saved: which leads, which stay as they are, and a dry run.

Then we typed "Undo that" and confirmed. We checked all 111 leads in Salesforce against a copy taken before the test: every rating was blank again.

ChatGPT and Wave AI: compare the jobs

ChatGPT is a brilliant general assistant, and Salesforce has built an app for it. The comparison below is about one job: changing Salesforce records once you know which ones. Where we describe ChatGPT or the Agentforce Sales app, it's from OpenAI's and Salesforce's own pages, linked, as they read on 23 September 2026.
