1. What are Cases?
Cases are your central space for keeping track of everything your AI Agents do for you in the background.
In Cases, you can:
Monitor AI agent activity running in the background
See results generated by agents
View and manage calls, emails, documents, and photos
Work with data stored in database-style tables
Share data and progress with your team
Each Case contains multiple Case files.
A Case file represents all activity and information related to a specific person, claim, customer, crew member, or scenario.

2. Creating a Case
If you have not set up automatic data import into a case, you will have to manually create a case by clicking on “Create Case”. A pop up will appear.


1. Name and Describe Your Case
Give your Case a clear name and an optional description to explain its purpose.
2. Select the Case Type
Choose how your Case should work:
Default Case
The Default Case is the standard option and works for most use cases.
It’s ideal for:
Managing customers, crew, or cases
Tracking activity, results, documents, emails, calls, and details
Letting AI agents process data while you monitor and guide
If you’re not sure which type to choose, this is the best place to start.
Call List Case
The Call List Case is designed specifically for outbound calling workflows.
It’s used when you want to:
Schedule calls to groups of people
Run batch outbound calls
Track call attempts, reachability, and outcomes
Let AI agents handle calls at scale

You can also adjust accessibility settings to control who can access the case.
3. How to add data to a Case
You can bring data into a Case in two main ways.
Option 1 – Create a Case & Upload a database file to an AI Agent
Choose an AI Agent.
Upload your database file to that agent.
Ask the agent to create a Case with the columns (categories) you need, such as:
Name
ID
Phone
Email
Claim ID
Any other fields you require
Once the Case files list is created, you can:
Work with the data directly using the AI Agent
Create and open individual case files
Update or expand the structure as your needs change
Below is a short video tutorial:
Option 2 – Import a CSV file.
Import a CSV file containing a list of rows and convert each of its rows into a sepeate case system.
Option 3 – Set up automatic data imports
If you want data to flow into Record Groups continuously from other systems:
Contact 913.ai.
Request automatic data imports into cases.
The team will help connect your external sources so data is synced and updated seamlessly in the background.
4. Working with Case files inside a Case
Once your data is in a case, you will have a list of case files, you can manage case files individually or perform actions across many case files at once.
Working with AI Agents inside a Case
While inside a Case, you can open the AI Agent and ask it to perform actions across all case files in the group.
For example, you can ask the agent to:
Call or email everyone in the Case
Start processing all claims in the case
Review, analyze, or update data across multiple case files
Run the same workflow for every case file
This allows you to operate at scale instead of working individually on a case file.
Below is a short video tutorial:
Managing columns and data
You can customize how records are structured and displayed.
You can:
Ask the AI Agent to add new columns to the Case
Provide the data you want to populate the rows with
Use the Columns menu to:

A phone call you made
A manual update
An external decision
This keeps the case file complete and up to date.
