How does the Boolean field type work?
The Boolean field type converts natural language to Yes/No or True/False values.
What it does: • Converts natural speech to boolean values • Understands many variations (yes, no, true, false, on, off, etc.) • Displays as configured (Yes/No or True/False) • Perfect for checkboxes and toggle questions
Best for: • Yes/no questions • Checkboxes (is this present/absent?) • Toggles (on/off, enabled/disabled) • True/false statements
Voice Examples: • "safety equipment present? Yes" → Yes • "documentation is not complete" → No • "equipment working? No" → No • "ready to ship? Yes" → Yes
Understands Many Variations: Yes variations: yes, true, on, checked, present, correct, affirmative No variations: no, false, off, unchecked, absent, incorrect, negative
Smart Negation: The AI understands negations: • "not present" → No • "is not complete" → No • "we are not interested" → No
Description Usage: ❌ The field description is NOT used in the AI prompt. The AI uses hardcoded boolean detection.
Example field setup: • Field Name: "Safety Equipment Present" • Type: boolean • Display: Yes/No
Display Options: You can configure how the boolean displays: • Yes/No (recommended for most cases) • True/False (for technical/developer use)
Voice Editing: Boolean fields support smart voice coercion: • "Oh wait, yes, we are an agency" → true • "No thanks" → false • "I want it" → true
