Five May rollouts that sharpen your AI campaigns

Leonardo Garcia-Curtis04/05/2026
TL;DR

The Waboom portal shipped five features in May 2026 that turn outbound campaigns into a learning system. Cost-per-outcome on every campaign report. Smart calling windows the agent learned from its last 90 days of dialling. Public holiday auto-skip. Custom AI tags you build in 30 seconds. An Insights tab that grades the campaign and surfaces what to fix this week and this quarter. Result: outbound that gets sharper every campaign without you tuning anything. One client just hit $2.27 cost per qualified seller passed to their sales rep.

Five May rollouts that sharpen your AI campaigns

Five rollouts landed on the Waboom portal in May. None of them require you to learn a new workflow. All of them quietly make the next campaign better.

Below: what shipped, what each one does, and why it matters to your bottom line.

In this update

  • 1. Cost per outcome on every campaign report
  • 2. Smart calling windows the agent learned itself
  • 3. Public holiday auto-skip
  • 4. Custom AI tags in 30 seconds
  • 5. The Insights tab that tells you what to fix
  • 6. What this means for you
1

Cost Reporting

Cost per outcome on every campaign report

Old reports said "You spent $832 on 2,190 calls." True. Useless. You cannot quote that number to your accountant.

New reports say "43 sellers passed to your sales rep at $2.27 each." That is a number you can quote.

Campaign report Outcomes & cost per outcome table showing Call Passed to SDR at 43 outcomes for $2.27 CPA, Got Email at 23 outcomes for $2.32 CPA, and Call back today at 2 outcomes for $2.90 CPA

Every tag you flag as a campaign outcome now gets a cost-per-outcome (CPA) figure. Both on the report and in the campaign-completion email. The agent does the dialling. The portal does the maths. You spend less and win the budget conversation.

Smart Scheduling

Smart calling windows the agent learned itself

The campaign builder now shows you the best windows to call this exact agent. Built from the agent's last 90 days of dialling. In one client case, that is 9,669 calls of evidence behind the recommendation.

Two columns the form fills in for you:

  • →Best for bookings. Friday 6pm to 7pm. 34% answer rate, 9.3% booking rate.
  • →Best for reach. Wednesday 9am to 10am. 40% answer rate.

Click "Use these" and the campaign schedules itself around the windows that actually convert. The longer the agent runs, the sharper the recommendation. Six months in, your windows look nothing like the generic Tuesday morning advice every other vendor gives.

Holiday Awareness

Public holiday auto-skip

Same form. The portal now flags every public holiday inside your campaign window and refuses to dial on those dates. Aotearoa New Zealand has 11 public holidays in the next 12 months. Mon 1 Jun (King's Birthday). Fri 10 Jul (Matariki). Christmas. Boxing Day. The full list.

The only voice agent more annoying than one calling during dinner is one calling on Anzac Day. That problem is now solved by default.

Custom Tagging

Custom AI tags in 30 seconds

Tags are how the AI summarises every call. As of May, you build your own.

  1. Type a tag name. ("3 Month Reminder.")
  2. Tell the AI what to detect. ("The caller wants James to call back in 3 months.")
  3. Add a couple of example phrases.
  4. Pick a colour and an icon.

Then toggle two switches:

  • →Track this tag as a campaign outcome. Count and CPA show up on the next report.
  • →Send email when this tag is applied. Your inbox pings the moment the AI hears it.

The agent picks up the new tag on the next call. No engineer. No support ticket.

AI Insights

The Insights tab that tells you what to fix

Campaign overview header with the new Insights tab next to the Overview tab, marked with a red callout arrow

Every completed campaign now has a second tab. Insights. Open it and the AI hands you a graded report on the campaign you just ran.

Three colour-coded cards at the top:

  • Immediate Actions (red). Today's fixes. e.g. "Clean the calling database. 30%+ appear to be wrong numbers or business lines."
  • This Week (yellow). Script and timing tweaks. e.g. "Focus calling on Tuesday-Wednesday 12pm-2pm windows where conversion is highest."
  • Strategic (blue). Quarterly moves. e.g. "Implement CRM tracking for 6-month follow-up cycles that prospects keep requesting."

Below that: a bookings heatmap (which day-and-hour cells produced the bookings). Plus booking rate by hour and by weekday. All built from your actual campaign data, not a textbook average.

The agent is not just running. It is reading itself and writing you the next plan.

The Outcome

What this means for you

April's campaign for one client put the picture together:

  • Calls dialled2,190
  • Connected (27%)602
  • Outcomes worth following up68
  • Spend attributed to those 68 outcomes$157
  • Average cost per qualified outcome$2.31

$157 is the cost the platform attributes to the 68 tracked outcomes, not the total cost of all 2,190 dials.

Try getting numbers like those out of your current outbound stack. The five features above are why the same engine will produce a sharper number next month, without anyone tuning anything.
