Human review

A useful voice workflow needs a reject button.

A person reviewing a voice-derived draft needs to be able to correct it, reject it, or request more context. A design with only “save” makes uncertainty difficult to express.

Rejection is part of the workflow.

A person reviewing a voice-derived draft needs to be able to correct it, reject it, or request more context. A design with only “save” makes uncertainty difficult to express.

What to put into the workflow.

  • Separate the original source from the editable draft.
  • Provide approve, revise, and reject outcomes.
  • Keep rejected content away from downstream records.
  • Record the review decision without replacing the original evidence.

A concrete example.

If a customer’s name was misheard, the reviewer should be able to fix the proposed record while retaining the source for reference.

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.
