External tool

Clientell AI runs as a Salesforce-native tool. Setup is faster, data stays inside your Salesforce environment, and there is no separate auth or data-residency conversation. Gearset is fully external; Salesforce data is synced or read-only-mirrored rather than live. Choose this path when the tool's primary value is its non-Salesforce functionality (calls, emails, content generation) and Salesforce is a downstream destination.
