Field-Rep & Pre-Call Commercial AI Copilot
Assemble the account picture, choose from approved in-date content, draft the call plan and turn notes into records — an event or complaint found in a note is pushed to safety on receipt.

What this agent does
Prepares the call, records what came back
In
- 01
Pull the account and prescriber picture from sources your data licence permits — history, access, formulary.
- 02
Read the approved content set, the certification date each piece carries and what this market and channel may use.
Reason
- 03
Match the call objective to material that is approved, still in date and cleared for this audience.
- 04
Surface the territory's own constraints — access route, prior interactions, stated preferences and opt-outs.
- 05
Draft the call plan and its discussion points, each one carrying the approved-label statement it rests on.
Decide
- 06
Detect an off-label question and send it to medical information by the route your company defines.
- 07
Detect an adverse event or product complaint in a note and push it to safety on receipt, ahead of the call record.
Out
- 08
Return the plan, the selected material and the constraints for the representative to take or change.
- 09
Turn the rep's notes into the call record, the follow-ups and the log of what was shown and sent.
Product statement
The agent assembles, selects, drafts and routes inside the approval boundaries agreed during implementation. What is said in a call, what is sent and under whose name, and every reportable transfer of value stay with the representative, their manager and compliance.
Example workflow
One call, end to end
- 1Call comes upA territory plan slot, an account trigger, a request from the practice or a follow-up falling due
- 2Account picture assembledCall history, access route, formulary position, prior interactions, consent and contact preferences, from permitted sources
- 3Content selectedApproved material still inside the certification date it carries, cleared for this audience, market and channel
- 4Call plan draftedObjective and discussion points, each traced to the approved-label statement behind it, with what belongs elsewhere named
No human action required
Stages 1 to 4 run without a person in the loop — the picture, the permitted content set and the draft plan are finished before the representative opens anything.
Reaches the representative as a call plan.
Leaves this path for the function that owns it.
Representative, manager and compliance
The representative reads the plan against the account they know, then makes the call under their own name — what they say in it is the company's statement, not the agent's — and sends nothing until they send it themselves.
Take the plan · Change it · Route to medical information
Called — notes returned
- 6Call made, notes returnedThe representative calls; notes become the call record and the follow-ups, and a safety item found in them leaves before either is written
- 7Outcome evaluatedLabel consistency of drafted lines, out-of-date material caught, off-label and safety routing, and what the rep rewrote by cohort
Rep changes
What a representative struck out or added before the call is counted.
What should not run autonomously
Human approval stays in control
Outside the boundary — human approval required
8 items
- Making or drafting a claim outside the label.
- Using or drafting unapproved or expired material.
- Answering an off-label question.
- Recording a spend or a transfer of value.
Automation boundary
Agent acts unaided
- ✓Assemble the account and prescriber picture from permitted sources.
- ✓Select from material that is approved, in date and cleared.
- ✓Surface access, prior interactions, preferences and opt-outs.
- ✓Draft the call plan, and push an event or complaint to safety on receipt.
Write actions run only inside the approval boundaries agreed during implementation. Sending to a prescriber is not one.
- Sending anything to a healthcare professional.
- Deciding an adverse event need not go to safety.
- Contacting a prescriber who has opted out.
- Changing the approved content set or the routing rules.
Example output
One pre-call plan, annotated
Everything the agent proposes is attached to the account it was built from and the material it selected.
Pre-call output · single planned call
Illustrative example- Call coming up
- Specialist office, in person
- Access on file
- Restricted, prior auth
- Content checked
- Today, 07:40
- Call plan
- Ready for the rep
- Confidence
- 89%
- Held back
- Two pieces, out of date
As received
The call as the territory plan has it, the access position on file, and when the content set was read.
Evidence used
- Approved core visual aid
- Access position, dated
- Last call and preference
Why two pieces are held
Both are past the certification date they carry, so neither is offered nor rewritten.
What the score decides
Confidence decides how closely the rep re-reads, not whether a line is on label.

Where AI adds value
The same four claims, placed at the point in the workflow where each one applies.
Where the value lands
Value 01 – 04
Every call in the plan
Territory plan, request or follow-up
Work from the territory as it is
Use the approved content set, the access position, the prior interactions and the preferences held for this account.
Give the hour back to the call
The picture, the permitted material and a drafted plan are ready before the representative sits down, rather than assembled across four systems the night before.
Send the question to the right desk
An off-label ask goes to medical information and a reported event goes to safety, instead of being settled in the car park and typed up later.
Build an evidence trail
Retain the sources read, the material selected and its status, the plan, what the representative changed and what came back — on both paths.

Agent controls
Six layers between the model and the call
Each control wraps the one inside it. A plan clears every layer before a representative reads it, and the send stays outside all six.
L6 · Outermost — last line of defence
Inward → L1 · closest to the model
- L1 – L2
- Test a line on the label, a piece on its status
- L3
- Sends what this path may not answer elsewhere
- L4 – L5
- Keep the send with the rep and reads in scope
- L6
- Pulls automation back when signals degrade
How Nestack evaluates it
Evaluate what leaves the call, not only what goes into it.
Coverage runs the whole depth of the workflow, and every layer is cut by slice.
Surface — the plan the representative opens
- E1Label-consistency evaluationDoes every drafted line sit inside the approved label it names?
- E2Content-status evaluationWas each selected piece approved, in date and cleared for this audience?
- E3Safety hand-off recallDid events and complaints in returned notes reach safety, and how fast?
- E4Routing evaluationDid off-label asks and transfer-of-value items leave on the right route?

Failure modes
Where each failure originates in the agent
Seven failure modes plotted against the five stages of the agent lifecycle.

- FP-07
Silent routing regression
A rule change moves the off-label line unnoticed.
Stage tracks
Model, prompt, content-status and routing changes
- Sev-1 · a duty with a clock is missed
- Sev-2 · the company uses or says what it may not
- Sev-3 · the plan degrades and the rep rebuilds it
Affected slices
Most of the rewriting sits in two kinds of account
Plans a representative rewrote, and plans a piece had to be pulled out of, counted by account cohort. A newly launched indication has little call history to plan from, and access positions move mid-quarter.
Slice performance — reported separately, not only in aggregate
Illustrative example| Slice | Failure rate | Lift | Lift vs. threshold | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Newly launched indications | 4.8% | 3.1× | Review | |
| Accounts under an access restriction | 3.5% | 2.3× | Review | |
| Prescribers with data opt-outs | 2.9% | 1.9× | Watch | |
| Routine in-territory follow-up calls | 1.3% | 0.8× | Normal |
Bar: rewritten-plan lift vs. routine follow-up baseline · scale 0–4.0× · tick at the 2.0× threshold
2 of 4 slices over threshold
Evidence-linked improvement
Where a plan gets rewritten, the rule behind it moves
The cases worth having are the quiet ones — a discussion point deleted in the car park, a piece swapped for another without a word to anyone.
Improvement cycle · five stages
Switchback — the path turns at Improve and returns at Learn
- 01
Detect
Rewritten plans, held pieces or slow safety hand-offs move in one account cohort.
- 02
Diagnose
Ask the representative who rewrote it; they can usually name the wrong input.
- 03
Improve
The label check, the status rule or the routing line changes with a named approver.
- 04
Verify
Plans in that cohort are drafted again, the ones a piece was pulled from included.
- 05
Learn
Why a piece was pulled is written where the next selection has to read it.
Learn → Detect
The return edge. Labels, approved content and access positions all move under someone else's authority — the agent re-reads them on the next cycle, it does not update them.
Typical build scope
Twelve workstreams across six weeks
The build scope read against the delivery timeline. Week structure follows the six-week plan — discovery, content and permitted use, planning and routing, evaluation, integration, then production validation and handover.

W6Representatives plan from the agent, then Agent Care starts
- Reading the band
- A bar appears only over the weeks that name its work. The content status map sits in week 2: a plan drafted out of material nobody has dated is a compliance problem, not a saving.
- At the end of W6
- Reps have planned real calls with it and rewritten what they did not like. The status map, the label checks and the routing rules become Agent Care's from that point.
- Duration
- Six-week plan shown · typical delivery 4–6 weeks depending on scope confirmed in discovery.
Next step · Biotechnology AI agent
Build a pre-call copilot around the territory your reps already work.
Show us one product, the content set your representatives work from, and how an adverse event mentioned in a call reaches your safety team today. A rep types a sentence into a note on Friday afternoon; nothing in it is commercial any more, and nobody in safety knows it exists until Monday. That sentence, and what happens to it in the next minute, is the first thing this build has to answer for.
