HubSpot Lifecycle Spine Audit

See what really happened before each lifecycle stage changed.

FunnelLedger reconstructs HubSpot Lifecycle Stage history, filters workflow, import, and admin noise, and returns deterministic evidence for every stage movement — privacy-first, read-only, and built for RevOps teams and HubSpot agencies.

No lifecycle-stage writes
Deterministic verdicts, never AI guesses
Upload files or connect HubSpot read-only
Chaos in, order out. Workflow, import, and admin noise plus real movement all enter as raw events — FunnelLedger places them in time and resolves an evidence-backed Lead → MQL → SQL → Opportunity → Customer spine.

01 · The product

The report is the product.

FunnelLedger turns lifecycle-stage history, source-of-change evidence, and (on Connected) live CRM activity into a board-ready report. Five things every report carries — see them on the Report page.

01 · Trust trend

Lifecycle Trust Over Time.

Per-month and per-quarter buckets of high, medium, low, and distorted trust — so you see how lifecycle trust shifted across the audited window, not just at the snapshot.

02 · Movement

Raw vs adjusted spine.

Workflow, import, and bulk-edit transitions are separated from real lifecycle movement, so you can tell when "funnel improvement" was actually an admin sweep.

03 · Cleanup

Lifecycle Decay.

Stale records — contacts whose label is no longer earning its support. MQLs without recent qualification, SQLs without sales activity, Opportunities without deal context.

04 · Performance

Stage performance.

Per-stage conversion rates, time-in-stage, and evidence quality. Stages ranked by how well they're earning their conversion claims.

05 · Connected only

Live evidence & Segment Actions.

On the Connected plan, FunnelLedger reads live touchpoints, deal and company context, and approved cohorts can be pushed to HubSpot static lists with explicit per-action approval.

02 · How it runs

Two ways to run the audit. Same audit logic, different evidence depth.

Start with the upload path — privacy-first, no HubSpot connection required. Step up to the connected path when you want live evidence, deal and company context, and Segment Actions.

01 · Upload path

Upload HubSpot property-history exports.

No HubSpot connection required — you upload HubSpot property-history exports and nothing else. No names, emails, or phone numbers are needed: PII-like values are ignored or suppressed and never rendered in the report. FunnelLedger reconstructs the lifecycle spine, classifies transitions, validates detected lifecycle paths, and returns the full Lifecycle Spine Audit.

no OAuth privacy-first unlimited re-runs
02 · Connected path

Connect HubSpot via OAuth.

Live lifecycle history, touchpoints, deal and company context, plus Segment Actions with explicit approval. Always-current re-runs as your portal changes. Read-only except for the Segment Actions you sign off on.

live evidence deal context Segment Actions
03 · The tiers

Two per-report tiers. $99 to unlock, $199 to connect.

Pick the tier that matches the depth of evidence you need. Pilot access may be offered by invitation; the public product is the Basic Upload Report and the Connected Report.

  • Basic Upload Report · $99 per report — one delivered Uploaded-file Lifecycle Spine Audit. Lifecycle Stage history CSV + up to 5 supporting property-history CSVs. Trust Over Time, raw vs adjusted spine, who changed Lifecycle Stage, detected paths, CSV bundle. No HubSpot connection.
  • Connected Report · $199 per report — one delivered Connected Lifecycle Spine Audit. Everything in the Basic Upload Report, plus HubSpot OAuth, live touchpoints, deal and company context, Lifecycle Decay, Segment Actions with explicit approval.
  • HTML report first, with the CSV bundle for spreadsheets and review handoff.
  • Pilot access may be offered by invitation when a portal needs a hands-on first audit.

04 · Verdicts

Every lifecycle stage gets a deterministic, evidence-backed verdict.

Verdicts are deterministic — never AI guesses. FunnelLedger reads the evidence chain and returns a plain-language verdict: supported, stale, missing evidence, or conflicting. The report always shows what evidence was used and what was missing. AI may help phrase or clarify in governed places; AI never decides verdicts, metrics, lifecycle truth, or CRM actions.

  • Latest source and original source history around stage movement
  • Conversion and form evidence where HubSpot exposes it
  • Sales calls, meetings, tasks, and email activity for SQL and Opportunity support (live touchpoints on Connected; uploaded activity property history on Audit)
  • Deal and ticket association context for later-stage labels (Connected)
  • Selected ICP, score, product interest, segment, market, owner, company, and handoff fields used as background context

05 · Safety

Read-only judgment. Human-approved action.

FunnelLedger produces evidence, verdicts, and recommendations. It never writes to lifecyclestage or any contact property. The only HubSpot write surface is Segment Actions on the Connected plan — explicit per-action approval and the HubSpot write scope required.

No PII needed for upload
No names, emails, or phone numbers are needed for the upload path. PII-like values are ignored or suppressed and never rendered in reports.
No lifecycle-stage writes
FunnelLedger never moves contacts between lifecycle stages or changes contact properties. Cleanup happens inside HubSpot, run by you.
Verdict traceability
Every verdict stays tied to lifecycle periods, evidence windows, selected context inputs, and the missing signals that produced the recommendation.
Segment Actions only with consent
On the Connected plan, Segment Actions create HubSpot static lists from reviewed cohorts — explicit per-action approval, HubSpot write scope required.
06 · For HubSpot agencies

Audit client portals. Prove the lifecycle stage truth.

Agencies walk into messy portals all the time. FunnelLedger turns lifecycle review into a repeatable audit: deterministic verdicts, evidence receipts, Trust Over Time, detected paths, recommended cohorts, and — on Connected — Segment Actions for the cleanup the client has already approved.

  • Run the same audit playbook across client portals — start with the upload path on day one, no OAuth required
  • Hand clients a readable report showing which lifecycle stages are supported, stale, missing evidence, or conflicting
  • Step up to Connected for live touchpoints, deal and company context, and Segment Actions on approved cohorts
  • Package it as a Lifecycle Spine Audit, not a broad HubSpot scanner

Run a Lifecycle Spine Audit on your portal.

Two per-report tiers: Basic Upload Report ($99 per report) for the full uploaded-file audit and CSV bundle, or Connected Report ($199 per report) for HubSpot OAuth, live evidence, and Segment Actions with explicit approval. Pilot access may be offered by invitation.

Questions teams ask before the first audit.

FunnelLedger is intentionally narrow: a deterministic, evidence-backed Lifecycle Spine Audit. AI may help phrase or clarify in governed places — never decides verdicts, metrics, or CRM actions.

Does this change anything in HubSpot?

The audit is read-only. FunnelLedger never writes to lifecyclestage or any contact property. On the Connected plan, Segment Actions can create a HubSpot static list from a reviewed cohort — explicit per-action approval, HubSpot write scope required. Cleanup happens inside HubSpot, run by you.

Do I need to connect HubSpot to start?

No. Start with the upload path — no HubSpot connection required. Upload your HubSpot property-history exports and FunnelLedger runs the audit. Step up to the Connected plan when you want live touchpoints, deal and company context, and Segment Actions.

What about PII and privacy?

No names, emails, or phone numbers are needed for upload. PII-like values are ignored or suppressed and never rendered in reports. The Connected audit is read-only except for the Segment Actions you explicitly approve. See our privacy page for the full contract.

What's in each plan?

Basic Upload Report · $99 per report — full uploaded-file Lifecycle Spine Audit, Trust Over Time, raw vs adjusted spine, who changed Lifecycle Stage, detected paths, CSV bundle. Connected Report · $199 per report — everything in the Basic Upload Report, plus HubSpot OAuth, live touchpoints, deal/company context, Lifecycle Decay, Segment Actions. Pilot access may be offered by invitation.

What about custom lifecycle paths?

FunnelLedger detects branching lifecycle paths (e.g. customer vs partner motions) and asks the operator to confirm the lifecycle design. In upload mode, it can validate the separator property the team uses to distinguish paths. The audit is honest about coverage when a separator is named but not uploaded.

Are verdicts AI-generated?

No. Verdicts are deterministic — every verdict carries the evidence chain underneath it. AI may help phrase or clarify in governed places (intro paragraph, industry context); AI never decides a verdict, a metric, or a CRM action.
