# Astica AI

> Connect DialNexa calls to Astica AI for record, request, case, lookup, approval, workflow run, or operational task workflows.

astica ai offers a suite of cognitive intelligence APIs, including computer vision, natural language processing, and voice synthesis, enabling developers to integrate advanced AI capabilities into their applications.

<Note>
  Use Astica AI with DialNexa when the call creates a specialized follow-up that needs owner, urgency, and clear operational context.
</Note>

## Where Astica AI fits in a DialNexa workflow

Astica AI should receive DialNexa output when the conversation affects a record, request, case, lookup, approval, workflow run, or operational task. The handoff should explain what the caller asked for, what DialNexa learned, which record or object is affected, and who owns the next step.

## FAQs

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How should extraction errors be handled?">
    Store confidence and route missing or conflicting fields to review rather than silently updating downstream systems.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="When should an AI answer fall back to a human?">
    When source context is missing, confidence is low, the caller disputes the answer, or the next step changes money, access, or legal commitments.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What should be measured over time?">
    Intent accuracy, extraction accuracy, fallback rate, review overrides, bad answers, and customer outcomes after AI-generated follow-up.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Should AI outputs act without review?">
    Only for low-risk workflows with clear confidence thresholds. Account changes, money, access, legal, and sensitive support cases need review.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What should be logged for AI decisions?">
    Prompt version, source context, model or workflow ID, confidence, output, call ID, and reviewer when applicable.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do we reduce hallucinations?">
    Use approved knowledge sources, cite source records, set fallback behavior, and route low-confidence answers to humans.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can DialNexa write follow-up messages with AI?">
    Yes, but drafts should use the actual call outcome, approved tone, and customer context. Sensitive messages should be reviewed.
