# Notes after a call

Right after a call, a team member says what should happen next: *"Send Giorgos the offer for the 3 cameras and call him back on Tuesday."* The note is saved on the call as **Instructions for AI**. The call analysis takes it into account, and your AI assistant (Claude or ChatGPT with the Voice Logica connector) carries it out and writes on the call what it did.

## Three ways to leave a note

- **Say it when the client hangs up.** Your line stays open for a few seconds and the voice asks if you want a note.
- **Dial `##` when the client does not hang up.** Only the client's line ends and the note starts.
- **Type it on the call.** **Call history** → open the call → **Instructions for AI**. Works on any call, also without the setting below.

## Turn on the note on the phone

1. Go to **Telephony → Call settings → Keypad codes, wake word and after-call note**.
2. Switch on **Note for AI after the call**.
3. Optional: change the **Code: hang up only the client** (default `##`) and the **Longest note** (default 120 seconds).

For one person only: **Telephony → Active directory** → their seat → **Recording** → **Custom**. From Claude or ChatGPT: *"turn on the after-call note"* or *"turn on the after-call note for Maria"*.

It works on calls that are analysed, on calls your team handles: direct calls, calls the AI agent transferred to a team member, campaign seats (the seat goes back to waiting once the note is done) and Noema bridges. Not on calls the AI agent handles alone.

## What you hear and say

- **The question** — In the voice of your agent: *"Leave a note? Speak now or say "no"."* In Greek: «Θέλετε σημείωση; Μιλήστε ή πείτε «όχι».» The language is the one on your seat, else the company's.
- **Start** — Just start talking, also over the question. Saying "yes" first is fine too: you hear *"Listening."* You have 15 seconds to start.
- **While you talk** — Talk freely: no word ends the note, so "that's all" or «αυτά» inside a sentence is just part of it.
- **Anything else?** — After a 4-second pause the voice asks *"Anything else?"* («Κάτι άλλο;»). Go on with more, or answer in your own words: *"no, that's all"*, *"we're fine, thanks"*. Then you hear *"Saved."* and the line ends. Silence after the question saves the note too.
- **Finish** — You hear *"Saved."* only when a note was kept. At the **Longest note** the line ends and what you said is kept.
- **No note** — Say "no" or hang up. Nothing is saved.

**Say who, what and when.** *"Email Giorgos Papadopoulos the offer for the 3 cameras, and call him back on Tuesday at 11."* With a name, an amount or a time, the assistant can act without asking you.

The note is not recorded and not in the call transcript. It is billed as analysis minutes.

## What happens with the note

1. It is saved on the call as **Instructions for AI**, status **Pending**.
2. The call analysis waits for the note and uses it in the summary and the tasks.
3. Your AI assistant does what it says: sends the email or SMS, creates the task, books the meeting, updates the contact. Then it marks the instructions **Done** with exactly what it did and to whom.
4. When a recipient or a detail it would send is unclear, it sends nothing for that part and leaves you a task saying what is missing.

On the call's **Instructions for AI** card you can edit the text, mark it **No action needed**, **Set back to pending** or delete it.

To have the instructions handled without anyone asking, run the **act-on-call-instructions** skill on a schedule: see [Instructions for AI after a call](https://docs.voicelogica.ai/integrations/claude-calls-and-team/#instructions-for-ai-after-a-call).
