Use AI to write or improve a message
Last updated: June 19, 2026
Staring at an empty composer is the slowest part of outreach. The Assistant removes it: from any message composer (single or bulk), the Generate with AI / Improve with AI button opens a prompt field and writes a first draft you then make your own.
It drafts; you review and send. The Assistant never sends on its own, and it never conducts the conversation — it just gets words on the page faster.
How to use it
- Label: "How can we improve this message?"
- Placeholder: "i.e. Let the candidate know you will get back to them, let the candidate know an offer is coming soon, etc."
- Press ⌘↵ to apply, or choose Make changes.
Tell it the intent in plain language ("offer is coming, keep it warm and brief") rather than wording the email yourself — that's the part it's good at. The more context the candidate already has in Vouch (stage, referral, evaluation), the more the draft reflects it.
Presets — quick-start options that appear alongside the prompt field (which ones appear depends on the candidate's current stage):
| Preset | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Based on "Stage name" | Generate a default message for that stage |
| General Outreach | Warm-up message for a new opportunity |
| Referral Outreach | Mention the referral, nudge the candidate |
| Clarify Concerns | Ask about identified gaps before deciding |
| Invite for interview | Interview invitation with prior context |
| Rejection | Thank-you + high-level rejection |
| Rejection (candidate dropped out) | Thank candidate who withdrew |
| Expect delayed reply | Let candidate know response will take time |
| Vacation notice | Alert candidate to delayed response due to vacation |
The AI generates the draft; you review before sending.
Good to know. Presets are starting points, not finished messages — pick the one closest to your intent, generate, then trim. Referral Outreach in particular leans on the referral context, so it reads best on candidates who actually came in through a vouch.
AI messaging is a Pro feature (requires
enableAIForCommunications). On other plans you can still write and send messages manually. See Billing & plans.
