Your qualification methodology is yours. If MEDDPICC and SPICED don’t quite fit, you can define custom frameworks with your own dimensions, acronyms, and scoring rubrics — and Doris will use them as first-class options across the whole product.
How it works
Custom frameworks run alongside the built-in MEDDPICC and SPICED frameworks. You can have multiple custom frameworks active at once — one for deal-level qualification, another for scoring specific meeting types like Discovery calls.
Once active, your custom dimensions appear everywhere qualification data is shown:
- Deal qualification tab (gauges and dimension bars)
- Kanban board cards
- Dashboards and coaching charts
- Progression charts
- Chat scorecards
- ICP profiles
Doris scores each custom dimension automatically from conversation evidence, exactly like the built-in frameworks.
Framework Scope
Each framework has a scope that determines how it runs:
| Scope | How it works |
|---|
| Deal | Accumulates evidence across all meetings linked to a deal. Scores evolve as more conversations happen. |
| Meeting | Scores each meeting individually. Link to a call type (Discovery, Demo, etc.) and every meeting of that type gets assessed. |
Creating a custom framework
Custom frameworks are configured by tenant admins. Go to Settings > Admin > Workspace > Qualification Framework.
Start blank
Click Start blank to open the editor with empty dimension slots. Define your framework name, choose the scope, and add up to 10 dimensions.
Each dimension has:
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Name | The display name (e.g. “Pain”, “Authority”, “Timeline”) |
| Acronym | A 1-3 character label shown on cards and charts (e.g. “P”, “AU”, “TL”) |
| Description | What this dimension measures — Doris uses this to understand what to look for in conversations |
| Scoring rubric | Guidance for scoring: what a high score (5) vs. low score (1) looks like |
Acronyms must be unique within your framework. You can reorder dimensions with the up/down arrows.
Build from a document
If you already have a qualification methodology written up, click Build from document to let Doris read it and pre-fill your framework automatically.
- Select a document from your Library (PDF, DOCX, DOC, Markdown, or plain text)
- Doris extracts dimension names, acronyms, descriptions, and scoring rubrics from the content
- The editor opens with everything pre-filled — review, edit, and adjust before saving
The document should describe your qualification methodology in enough detail for Doris to identify distinct dimensions and how to score them. Internal training docs and process PDFs work well.
Managing your framework
Once activated, the Qualification Framework settings page shows your active frameworks with their dimensions and the date each went live.
From here you can:
- Edit framework — Update names, dimensions, or rubrics. Changes apply to future assessments.
- Re-assess all open deals — Queue a fresh assessment of every active deal using your updated framework. Useful after making significant changes to dimensions or rubrics.
- Deactivate — Disable a framework without deleting it. Existing assessment data is preserved.
Limits
- Up to 10 dimensions per framework
- Framework name: 3-60 characters
- Acronym: 1-3 uppercase characters, unique per framework
Re-assessing all open deals runs in the background and may take a few minutes depending on how many active deals you have. You’ll see updated scores as each deal completes.
