Launch Checklist

AI Phone Agent Implementation Checklist

Use a practical checklist for scope, conversation design, knowledge, integrations, consent, testing, monitoring, escalation, and controlled rollout.

Practical framework

What you need to know

Use these four areas to evaluate the topic, make informed decisions, and plan the next step.

01

Scope the workflow and ownership

Choose one call type, document the audience and business outcome, set measurable success and stop conditions, and assign owners for content, integrations, compliance, operations, and incident response. Define which requests are supported and which always require a person.

02

Prepare conversation, data, and tools

Approve the greeting, disclosure, questions, confirmations, fallback language, transfer behavior, and closing. Review knowledge sources, minimize customer data, configure credentials and permissions, validate tool inputs, and make every external action traceable.

03

Complete pre-launch testing

Test happy paths and edge cases across accents, languages, silence, interruptions, corrections, noise, voicemail, invalid data, unavailable tools, transfers, and opt-outs. Confirm that summaries, recordings where permitted, structured fields, and downstream updates are accurate.

04

Roll out with monitoring and control

Begin with limited traffic and clear rollback criteria. Monitor answer rate, completion, transfers, latency, errors, complaints, and business outcomes; review sampled calls; protect retention and deletion rules; and require approval before publishing material workflow changes.
