In the Inbox, you can mark each AI-generated reply (Autopilot / Smart Funnel) with a **thumbs up** or **thumbs down** — a quick way to flag when the AI answered well and when it got it wrong, right in the conversation. With a thumbs down, you also choose **what went wrong**, so the team knows what to fix in the agent.

**Available on:** all plans.

**Who can do it:** any agent with access to the **Conversations** module (the vote is recorded under your user).

**Module:** Side menu > **Conversations** > open a conversation

## Where the buttons appear

The rating buttons appear **only on AI-generated replies** — the messages that Autopilot or the Smart Funnel sent in the conversation. Messages written by human agents and messages received from the contact do **not** have these buttons.

Each AI reply shows two icons:

-

👍 **Good reply** — the AI answered appropriately

-

👎 **Bad reply** — the AI made a mistake, went off topic, or answered poorly

## How to rate a reply

1.

Open the conversation in the Inbox

2.

Find the AI reply you want to rate

3.

Click the **👍 Good reply** or **👎 Bad reply** icon below the message

The icon you chose is **filled in** to show the current vote.

The **👍 is recorded right away**, with a single click. The **👎 opens a window asking for the reason** before it is recorded — see below.

Tip

It is one vote per message. Clicking the same icon again **removes** the vote; clicking the opposite icon **switches** the rating. The last click always counts.

## When you vote 👎, choose the reason

When you click **👎** on a message that does not have a negative vote yet, the **“What went wrong with this reply?”** window opens. **The reason is required:** nothing is recorded until you choose an option and click **Send**.

Choose **one** of the options:

-

Wrong or made-up information

-

Did not use information it had

-

Did not do what it should (handoff, scheduling, update)

-

Did not follow the prompt instruction

-

Answered out of context or repeated itself

-

Incomplete reply or did not answer

-

Inappropriate tone, language, or format

-

Leaked internal content

-

Other

If you choose **Other**, a text field appears so you can describe what happened in one sentence. In this case the text is **also required** (blank spaces do not count) and accepts up to **500 characters** — the counter appears in the corner of the field. The other options have no text field.

The **Send** button is only enabled when the reason is complete. To give up, click **Cancel** (or press Esc): **no rating is recorded** and the message stays as it was. If you reopen it later, the window starts from scratch — the reason you chose and the text you typed are not saved.

## What happens next

-

The vote is **recorded on the message** and attributed to your user.

-

The rating appears **in real time** for anyone viewing the same conversation.

-

Rating again replaces the previous vote — each reply keeps only the most recent rating.

-

The **reason stays with Nuvia only**: it is saved with the vote for the team to analyze, but it does not appear on the conversation screen after it is sent — not for you, not for other agents.

-

If you **switch the 👎 to 👍**, the reason you had sent is **discarded**. A thumbs up never carries the reason from an earlier complaint.

## Frequently asked questions

## Frequently asked questions

**Can I rate messages I wrote myself or that the contact sent?**

No. The rating buttons only appear on AI-generated replies. Messages from human agents and from the contact cannot be rated.

**Do I have to give a reason every time I vote 👎?**

Yes, whenever the 👎 is a new vote — whether on a message with no rating or when switching a 👍 to 👎. Without a reason, the vote is not recorded.

**What if I open the reason window and give up?**

Nothing is recorded. Clicking **Cancel** (or pressing Esc) closes the window and the message stays exactly as it was — if it already had a 👍, the 👍 stays.

**How do I remove a 👎 I already recorded?**

Click the 👎 again. The vote is removed right away, without opening the reason window or asking for anything.

**Can I undo a rating?**

Yes. Click the same icon you marked again and the vote is removed. To switch from positive to negative, click 👎 and give the reason. To switch from negative to positive, just click 👍 — in that case the reason sent earlier is discarded.

**Can I edit the reason after sending it?**

There is no direct way to edit the reason. Remove the 👎 by clicking it again and vote again, choosing the right reason.

**Do other agents see my rating?**

They see the vote (👍 or 👎) recorded on the message, in real time, because it is a single vote per message and the most recent rating is the one that counts. The 👎 reason, no: it is not shown in the conversation to anyone — it goes straight to the Nuvia team for analysis.

**Does the contact see that I rated the reply?**

No. The rating is internal to the Inbox — the contact does not receive or see any thumbs up or thumbs down, or the reason you wrote.
