Sales tactic: Auto and the eight plays

Explainer

For anyone choosing the angle of the pitch. Leave it on Auto and Riff reads the post and picks the play, and the dial says which, like auto picked problem → fix. Or pick one yourself.

Auto picks the play from the post; tap a chip and the first line changes with it.
