# **What is Voice Dictation in AI Builder & Assistant?**

Voice Dictation adds speech-to-text functionality to both the Workflow AI Builder and the in-builder AI Assistant. Instead of typing prompts, you can click the microphone icon and describe what you want to build or modify. GHL Customer Care transcribes your speech and processes it the same way as a typed AI prompt, generating workflows or applying edits accordingly.

## **Key Benefits of Voice Dictation**

Voice input removes friction from workflow creation, making automation faster and more inclusive for teams of all sizes.

-   **Hands-Free Ideation:** Capture automation ideas while multitasking without needing to type.
    
-   **Faster Workflow Creation:** Move from concept to structured workflow in seconds.
    
-   **Improved Accessibility:** Enables users with limited mobility or typing challenges to build workflows more easily.
    
-   **Multi-Language Support:** Dictate in any language supported by GHL Customer Care AI tools.
    
-   **Seamless Editing:** Generated workflows appear in the standard builder for review and refinement.

## **Voice-to-Workflow Creation (AI Builder)**

AI Builder allows you to generate complete workflows using natural language. With Voice Dictation enabled, you can describe triggers, conditions, and actions verbally, and GHL Customer Care will structure them into an automation draft inside the workflow canvas.

This is ideal when creating new workflows from scratch or rapidly prototyping automation logic.

(Screenshot: AI Builder prompt box with microphone icon highlighted above the “Add Trigger” button.)

After transcription:

-   The workflow appears in the builder.
    
-   You can edit triggers, actions, delays, and conditions as needed.
    
-   You can continue refining using either voice or typed prompts

## **Using Voice with AI Assistant**

The AI Assistant inside the workflow canvas supports conversational edits and guidance. Voice Dictation allows you to speak your requests directly into the Assistant chat instead of typing.

This is best for:

-   Modifying an existing workflow
    
-   Asking configuration questions
    
-   Adding or adjusting steps incrementally
