The AI Assistant on mobile helps you fill out records faster in the field. Open it from any record with the AI Assistant button (the sparkle icon). Ways to use it:
  • Chat to ask questions about the record
  • Record audio and transcribe to dictate your observations
  • Photos to fill out fields from what’s in the picture
  • Talk & show camera to talk back and forth while the AI Assistant sees your camera
  • Talk to fill out record to describe what you see and have the AI Assistant fill out the record
On the web app, use Ask Forerunner instead. It fills out the record you have open and answers questions about your whole account. See Global AI Assistant.

​
Record audio and transcribe

Record your observations and the app transcribes them; the AI Assistant then fills out form fields based on what you said:
1

Navigate to the property or object and open or create a record. See Managing records on mobile for details.
2

Tap the AI Assistant

Open the AI Assistant from within the record.
3

Tap the microphone icon

Select the microphone to begin speech input.
4

Speak your observations

Describe what you’re documenting. For example: “Two-story wood frame structure. Visible water line approximately three feet above ground level. HVAC system located in basement appears damaged. Estimated damage around forty percent of structure value.”

Review the changes

The AI Assistant converts your speech to text and fills in the fields for you. Tap View changes to check them, or Undo to roll them back.

Tips for field use

Speak clearly: Background noise can affect speech recognition. Move to a quieter area if possible, or use text input instead. Be specific: Include specific values, measurements, and observations in your descriptions. “Approximately three feet of water damage” is more useful than “some water damage.” Review before submitting: Always review the AI Assistant’s suggestions before accepting. You’re responsible for the accuracy of the final record. Combine methods: Use speech for quick observations, photos for visual documentation, and text for precise values. The AI Assistant works with all input types.
