Octolane is built around a small set of core objects. Everything you do. Every email, meeting, AI field, custom field. Extends them.

Core objects

TaskA first-class to-do with owner, due date, completionManual, AI-generated from meetings, or via API

Activities

Activities are the events that happen on a record’s timeline. They attach to Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities, and Tasks.
ActivityWhat it is
EmailInbound and outbound messages, auto-threaded to the right record
MeetingCalendar events, with optional recording, transcript, and recap
NoteFree-form text written by you or your team
AI actionField updates, draft sends, stage changes. Every AI move logged with citation
Every record has a unified timeline showing every activity in order.

Custom fields

Add any field to any standard object: text, number, date, select, multi-select, URL, currency, formula, lookup. See Custom fields.

AI fields

Fields that fill themselves in by reading conversations. Describe what to track in plain English. Octolane keeps the value current. See AI fields.

Custom objects

Available on the Team plan.
Model anything beyond Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities. Partners, Investors, Projects, Properties, Loans, Locations. Custom objects get the same treatment as standard ones: AI fields, views, automation, API access. See Custom objects.

How everything connects

  • A Contact belongs to one or more Accounts.
  • An Opportunity belongs to one Account and has one or more Contacts.
  • A Task can attach to an Account, Contact, or Opportunity.
  • Every Email, Meeting, Note, and AI action attaches to the relevant Account, Contact, and Opportunity automatically.
  • Custom objects can relate to standard objects through lookup fields.
