Create or update cards with an AI agent

AI agents can automatically create or update cards based on information collected during a phone call

The Create or Update Card capability allows an AI agent to automatically create or update cards based on information collected during a phone call. This helps ensure important conversations—such as leasing inquiries or service requests—are captured directly in your workflow.

When enabled, the AI agent will create a card on a specified board and populate fields with information collected from the caller.

Before You Begin

  • Choose the destination board and stage.
  • Review the board’s deduplication rules so you know when an existing card will be updated.
  • Decide which details the agent should collect and which board fields should receive them.

How the Capability Works

When this capability is enabled:

  • The AI agent can create a card on a selected board.
  • The system will follow the board’s deduplication rules.
  • If a matching card already exists, the system will update the existing card instead of creating a new one.

Matching occurs based on the contact name and phone number.

The card will only populate fields if the AI agent collected that information during the conversation.


Configure the Create or Update Card Capability

Agent → CONFIGURATION → Capabilities: 1 Open CONFIGURATION. 2 Review Card - Create/Update. 3 Check the destination board. 4 Check its starting stage. Peak demo shown; no configuration changed.
Agent → CONFIGURATION → Capabilities: 1 Open CONFIGURATION. 2 Review Card - Create/Update. 3 Check the destination board. 4 Check its starting stage. Peak demo shown; no configuration changed.

To enable this capability:

  1. Navigate to your AI Agent configuration.
  1. Go to Capabilities.
  1. Enable Card - Create/Update.
  1. Select the Board where cards should be created.
  1. Select the Stage where new cards should appear.

Once enabled, any card created by the AI agent will appear in the selected board and stage.


Understanding Board Deduplication Rules

The AI agent follows the deduplication settings configured on the board.

Common examples include:

  • One card per contact
  • One card per contact at a location

These settings determine whether the AI agent creates a new card or updates an existing one.

This configuration is especially important for workflows like renter leads, where duplicate cards could impact lead tracking.

Tip: Review and confirm your board’s deduplication settings before enabling this capability.


Configuring AI Data Collection

You can control what information the AI agent collects during calls.

To configure this:

  1. Open your AI Agent configuration.
  1. Navigate to Data Collection Settings.
  1. Enable Custom Data Collection.
  1. Toggle on the fields you want the AI agent to collect.

When the AI agent gathers this information during a call, it will automatically populate the matching fields on the card.

Collect an address

Data collection fields can map to Address fields on the board. Addresses collected through SMS, email, or voice are geocoded automatically.

Map the collected address to the intended Address field, then review the resulting card to confirm that the address was captured correctly. For example, keep a caller’s mailing address separate from the address of a property they want to tour.

Add the caller to matching contact fields

After a voice call, card creation adds the caller to every Person or Persons field whose contact-type filter matches the caller. It is no longer limited to one fixed contact field.

Review the contact-type filters on your board’s person fields before using this workflow. If several fields accept the caller’s contact type, the caller can appear in all of them.

Automatic Field Creation

If the AI agent collects information for a field that does not yet exist on the board, the system will automatically create the field on the board and populate it with the collected data.


Recommended Setup

As a best practice, consider creating a dedicated stage on your board for AI-generated cards.

For example:

  • AI Leads
  • AI Call Intake
  • AI Requests

This allows your team to easily:

  • Filter cards created by the AI agent
  • Review incoming requests
  • Monitor AI interactions

Call Summary and Transcript

Each card created by the AI agent will include additional information about the call.

Under the Related section of the card, you will find:

  • A summary of the call
  • The full call transcript

This allows your team to quickly review what the caller requested without needing to listen to the entire call.


Important Limitations

There are a few important things to understand when using this capability.

AI Agents Only Populate Collected Data

Cards will only include fields for information the AI agent successfully collected during the call.

If the caller did not provide certain details, those fields will remain blank.

Knowledge Does Not Control Actions

The Knowledge section in the AI agent configuration is only used to provide information for the AI agent to reference during conversations.

Examples of helpful knowledge include:

  • Leasing processes
  • Maintenance request procedures
  • Expected response times

The knowledge section cannot instruct the AI agent on how to fill out fields or control card actions.

Capabilities—such as Create or Update Card—are configured separately and determine what actions the AI agent can perform.
