# Create a Meeting

> Schedule an AI-conducted interview on Google Meet or phone. Choose an AI Actor, configure the meeting, add participants, and review results when complete.

Once you have an AI Actor configured, you can create meetings where it conducts interviews with your candidates.

## Meeting channels

Vocalis supports two meeting channels:

| Channel         | Platform                         | What you need                                             |
| --------------- | -------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Google Meet** | Video/audio call via Google Meet | [Google Workspace setup](/vocalis/setup/google-workspace) |
| **Phone Call**  | Voice call via Twilio            | [Twilio setup](/vocalis/setup/twilio)                     |

## How to create a meeting

### Step 2: Meeting Configuration

Set up the details of the meeting:

* **Meeting name** — A label for easy reference (e.g., "Jane Smith - Technical Interview")
* **Meeting Channel** — Choose **Google Meet** or **Phone Call**
* **Date and time** — When the interview should happen
* **Duration and settings** — Session length, how early the AI should join, and idle timeout

### Step 3: Select Participants

Add the candidate(s) who will be interviewed:

* For **Google Meet**: Enter the candidate's name and email address. Vocalis sends them a calendar invite with the Meet link.
* For **Phone Call**: Enter the candidate's name and phone number. Vocalis calls them at the scheduled time.
