# Use a suggested check-in

Brev drafts check-ins from your meetings and connected apps. See where the drafts appear, how to accept one, and how to turn them off.

Brev reads a goal's meetings, connected apps and past updates, then drafts a check-in. Nothing saves until you do.

Brev doesn't file drafts on its own today. See [Automatic filing](https://help.brev.io/my-checkins/#brev-files-for-you).

## Where drafts appear {#where}

- **Check in page**: A Suggested check-in chip, a sparkle and the draft's first words, next to Add check-in.
- **Check-in dialog**: The same sparkle chip next to Add check-in. It is hidden when you edit a check-in, when the goal is Completed, and while the dialog holds an unsaved draft.
- **Goal page**: A Suggested check-in card at the top of the goal's check-ins.
- **Slack**: Already typed into the Check-in Notes box.

## Accept a draft on the Check in page {#steps}

1. On a card, click the sparkle chip. The draft opens in a Suggested check-in panel.
2. Click the green check to copy the draft's note, progress and status into the card. The red X throws it away. A draft never sets Completed: it becomes On Track, and you pick Completed yourself.
3. Edit the text, number or status, then click **Add check-in**.

> **Tip: Success check**

> The card slides away, and the check-in is saved under your name.

## Turn drafts off {#turn-off}

An admin switches **Suggested Check-ins** off in Settings, AI & agents, Capabilities. It is on by default. Off hides drafts in the check-in dialog and on the goal page, not on the Check in page. See [Turn AI capabilities on or off](https://help.brev.io/ai-capabilities/).
