Preserve what was said and who said it.
Speech recognition, interpretation, and record updates are different steps. Keeping them separate helps a reviewer catch an incorrect name, amount, date, or commitment before the CRM treats it as fact.
What to put into the workflow.
- Retain the approved source reference and relevant timestamp.
- Separate transcription from the proposed field change.
- Show uncertain details to the reviewer.
- Apply only the reviewed changes and record the decision.
A concrete example.
A call can mention a possible meeting date without confirming a booking. The proposed CRM update should preserve that distinction.
What to take away.
Name the decision, keep the relevant evidence, and make the human responsibility clear. Start with a small, inspectable workflow before expanding what the system is allowed to do.
