Question 1
“Can I see less case studies just 2”
Answer
✓Answered well
The home page shows customer stories from banking, retail and manufacturing. The manufacturing page shows three manufacturer stories, so two can be picked from either.
Answer full page
Here are two customer stories from manufacturing: Suzuki and Konica Minolta. Both show how manufacturers keep sales, service and partners working from the same account.
“Do you have case studies other than manufacturing?”
Answer
✓Answered well
The site has customer stories outside manufacturing. Banking, insurance, retail and software stories with results appear on /customers and on the financial services, retail and software industry pages.
Answer full page
Yes. Here are customer stories from banking and insurance, retail and software companies, each with their results. They show how teams outside manufacturing put every customer on one record.
“I want use a marketing automation agent? that focuses on ABM what should i consider?”
Answer
Partly answered
The account-based marketing playbook, the shared target list and the agent permissions and approvals are covered. The site never says whether the Campaign Agent can plan for target accounts or buying groups, and the ABM page doesn't name which agent drafts the account-based ads, email and pages.

The ABM page doesn't say that account-based drafts wait for a person's approval.

Hourglass doesn't have a separate ABM agent, but the Campaign Agent drafts plans, segments and content for target accounts, and your team approves every draft. When choosing, consider whether marketing and sales can share one account list and one record, and what controls you have over the agent. This page covers the Win target accounts approach and what the Campaign Agent can do.
“Can I also see some clients, case studies and comparisons”
Answer
Partly answered
Customer stories, including three from manufacturers, and comparisons with point tools, legacy suites, spreadsheets and building in-house are covered. The client logo wall shows only placeholder logos with no named clients, and no customer story shows results from account-based marketing.

Answer full page
This page keeps the Win target accounts playbook and the Campaign Agent, and adds who uses Hourglass, stories from manufacturers like Suzuki, Konica Minolta and Viessmann, and a side-by-side comparison with a stack of point tools. The comparison shows why running account-based work on one platform beats separate tools.
The site covers how agents help close deals. The Close deals faster playbook has the Data Agent explain which deals are at risk. The Data Agent page lists stalling deals and accounts close to a decision. The Prospecting Agent page covers next-step suggestions and meeting prep.
Answer full page
This page shows how teams close deals faster with Hourglass and where the agents help.

Your reps review and approve everything the agents prepare.
“I want use a marketing automation agent for faster onboarding?”

The Onboard new customers playbook covers shared plans and emails triggered by what each customer has done, and a software story shows the Customer Agent answering onboarding questions.

Answer full page

It keeps the onboarding playbook and the Campaign Agent, whose drafts wait for a person to approve them.

What is missing

Thanks, I've shaped the page for a developer at a bank. It keeps the financial services overview, the onboarding playbook and the Campaign Agent, and adds how Data Hub syncs your systems into one record with field-level permissions and change history. For building your own integrations, the REST API basics are linked from the docs below.
