Set AI approvals

Choose which AI actions wait for a person to approve, and see how approvals work in Homeforce today.

AI approvals are your guardrails. They decide what the AI can do on its own and what waits for a person. Owners and admins set them.

Open AI approvals

Go to Settings → AI approvals. You can also get there from Settings → Agents & AI CSR → What needs your approval.

The AI approvals settings page with five switches
The AI approvals settings page with five switches

Under Require approval for, each switch works like this:

  • On: the AI drafts and a person approves.
  • Off: the AI acts on its own and logs what it did.

All five are on to start.

Switch When on
Messages to customers Texts and emails the AI writes wait for someone to send them
Estimate follow-ups Follow-ups on open estimates are drafted, not sent
Estimates Estimates the AI builds stay as drafts until someone reviews the price and sends them
Scheduling & dispatch changes Suggested assignments and reschedules appear as suggestions instead of moving visits
Pricebook changes Price updates and new items the AI proposes are queued for an admin

Change a switch and click Save.

How approvals work today

Right now, every AI feature in Homeforce already waits for a person, whatever these switches say:

  • AI estimate creates a draft. You send it.
  • Write follow-up drafts a text. You click Send text.
  • AI Suggest lists techs. You click Assign.
  • AI starter pricebook lists items. You choose what to keep.
  • Dictate drafts notes. The tech taps Save to visit.
  • Agents and Copilot only read and answer.

Your choices here are saved, and they'll control AI features that can act on their own as those arrive. Keeping them on is the safe default.

Who can use AI at all

AI features follow the same roles as the rest of Homeforce. For example, a tech can only draft an estimate on a job they're assigned to, and only roles that can see reports can use Copilot. See Users and permissions.
