AI Draft Mode vs. Auto Mode

TelBuddy's AI can help with texting in two ways, and you choose which one per number:

Draft Mode โ€” the AI prepares a suggested reply and drops it into the inbox as a draft. Nothing sends until a person reviews it: click โœ๏ธ Edit to revise the wording first, or ๐Ÿš€ Send Now to send it as-is. Either way, the original draft is cleanly removed once it's handled.

Auto Mode โ€” the AI replies on its own, without a human in the loop. Good once you trust its answers on a given number; risky to turn on before that.

Most teams start every new number in Draft Mode, watch how the AI actually responds for a while, then switch to Auto once they're confident in it.
