Why it works

The headline number goes up sharply (3x new business ARR quarter over quarter), which makes Breakthrough the right primary tag despite the efficiency gains from automation. The story also has a genuine New Capability dimension: Cledara could not practically offer 40+ HRIS and accounting integrations before, making this partly a market-coverage unlock. The COO quote is specific and attributes causality directly to the integrations, which gives the outcome real credibility.

Steal this

Attribute the revenue number to a specific mechanism (integrations closing deals) rather than leaving it as a general growth claim. That causal link between product capability and sales result is what makes the headline metric believable.
