How does the Email field type work?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Email field type extracts and validates email addresses from voice or text input.

What it does:
• Extracts email addresses from natural speech
• Validates email format
• Handles spoken punctuation ("at" → @, "dot" → .)
• Ensures proper email structure

Best for:
• Contact emails
• User registration emails
• Support addresses
• Any email address field

Voice Examples:
• "email is john dot smith at company dot com" → john.smith@company.com
• "contact email support at saysheet dot com" → support@saysheet.com
• "my email is jane underscore doe at gmail dot com" → jane_doe@gmail.com

Speaking Email Addresses:
Say punctuation clearly:
• "at" or "@" → @
• "dot" → .
• "underscore" → _
• "dash" or "hyphen" → -

Full example: "john dot smith underscore dev at company dot com"
→ john.smith_dev@company.com

Validation:
The AI validates that the extracted text is a proper email format:
• Must contain @
• Must have a domain (after @)
• Must have a valid structure

Invalid emails will show a validation error.

Description Usage:
❌ The field description is NOT used in the AI prompt. Email detection uses hardcoded logic.

Example field setup:
• Field Name: "Email"
• Type: email
• Description: "Customer email address" (helpful for you, not used in AI)

Pro Tips:
• Speak clearly when saying "at" and "dot"
• You can also type emails directly if voice transcription is tricky
• Common domains (gmail, outlook, yahoo) are well-recognized
