## Common questions 

What is Factor8? 

Factor8 is a managed AI marketing system built by Lean Labs. It uses 45 specialized AI agents grounded in a company's brand context to produce content, campaigns, and pipeline. Factor8 is designed for startups and scaleups on HubSpot that want to scale loop marketing without adding headcount.

How much does Factor8 cost? 

Factor8 has a one-time setup fee of $10,000 (up to 30% discount for startups under $1M). Monthly plans start at $2,000/mo for Operate In House (your team runs the agents) or $5,000/mo for Operator Included (Lean Labs runs it for you). Token compute costs are separate, averaging $200/mo for most teams.

Why is Factor8 setup $10,000? 

Factor8 requires custom configuration for each company. The $10,000 setup covers building your Context Engine (brand facts, buyer forces, selling frame, brand flavor), connecting HubSpot, deploying 45 agents, and running a full verification pass. This deep customization is what separates Factor8 from generic AI tools.

How is Factor8 different from ChatGPT or Claude? 

Factor8 is purpose-built for loop marketing, not general-purpose prompting. Generic AI tools have no knowledge of your brand, buyers, or positioning, so every output needs heavy editing. Factor8 agents are grounded in your verified brand context, producing on-brand content that is ready to publish, not ready to rewrite.

Can one marketer run Factor8? 

Yes. Factor8 is designed so one marketer can direct all 45 agents. The marketer reviews and approves while the agents handle production across content, email, social, AEO, and community engagement. Teams using Factor8 typically execute 3-5x faster than traditional marketing teams.

What happens if Factor8 doesn't work? 

Factor8 includes an Every Month Refund Guarantee. If Factor8 is underperforming and Lean Labs cannot fix the issue within 5 days, the full month is refunded. There are no long-term contracts, and teams can cancel anytime with no penalties.

How quickly does Factor8 produce results? 

Factor8 agents go live approximately 3 weeks after onboarding begins and start producing content within the first week of deployment. Most teams see measurable pipeline impact within 60 days. The first 90 days serve as a ramp period for tuning output quality and building momentum across channels.

What is loop marketing? 

Loop marketing is a growth framework developed by Lean Labs that combines Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), community engagement, brand reputation, and data-driven iteration into a continuous growth loop. Unlike traditional linear marketing funnels, loop marketing creates compounding returns by feeding performance data back into strategy. Factor8 is the AI system built to scale loop marketing.

What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)? 

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of optimizing content to appear in AI-generated answers from tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude. AEO focuses on structured content, schema markup, and authoritative sourcing so AI models cite your brand when buyers ask questions. Lean Labs offers AEO as a core service through Factor8 and loop marketing.
