Click the Ask Flo AI.. input box at the bottom of the interface and enter your classification query. For example, enter "Classify the requests as per renewals, expansion and net new".

Review the analyzed requests. Flo AI processes the data and displays the categorized requests in a comprehensive table, making it easy to see which requests are renewals, expansions, or net-new.

Understanding Request Categories
To help you manage your SaaS pipeline, Flo AI groups requests into three distinct categories:
- Renewal: Focuses on extending existing contracts. For more details on managing these.
- Expansion: Involves upgrades, plan changes, or adding licenses to active contracts.
- Net-New: Represents brand new software procurements.
