Smarter communication in Odoo 19 – Chatter gets CC replies, AI drafting & Voice transcription

The real bottleneck no one admits

Any Odoo veteran knows this scene : a project lead CCs in a manager for quick approval.
The reply happens in email, outside Odoo and vanishes from the official record.
Later, the sales team’s left guessing, “Did we get that green light?” Or a busy support agent joins a thread with 20+ updates and needs 10 minutes just to understand what’s changed.
Decisions get lost and important notes from the last client call go missing – action items trapped in someone’s notebook, not in Odoo. 
Multiply this across every team and fractured communication quietly saps speed from the business. 

The Odoo 19 Chatter [Why this redesign matters]

With Odoo 19, Chatter is no longer an afterthought. 

The September 2025 update is rooted in months of customer feedback and stories from hundreds of implementation partners. 

Now, Chatter is a living collaboration hub where the system captures every reply, offers a sidekick powered by AI and literally “listens in” when a team needs it, closing the loop at every turn.

CC Replies : Everyone in the loop, always

1) CC replies finally “just work” in Chatter.

Now, if a customer or manager is CC’d, their direct email reply appears in the record – preserving decisions and approvals in full context. 

No more copy-pasting emails, endless forwarding or chasing ghosted approvals. Audit trails are full and teams instantly see what changed and who agreed  – saving hours week after week.

In real use :

• A project manager CCs a technical lead for final scope sign-off. The tech lead replies “Approved with updated deadline”- and it’s immediately visible to all, right in Chatter.
• During a complex client negotiation, both the CFO and sales director are in CC. Their strategic replies, negotiations and OKs are never lost, powering better, faster outcomes for whole teams.

2) AI Drafting & Instant Summarization : Less typing, more doing

With AI in Chatter, the game changes for anyone who dreads writing or catching up.

• Press the AI button, type a prompt (“Draft a gentle overdue payment reminder”), and a ready-to-edit response appears, tuned to the right tone.
• Thread too long? Let AI summarize it into 2-3 actionable highlights.

The technology goes beyond simple templates – rewriting for clarity, professionalism or mood – all on the fly, in any language the team speaks.

3) Voice transcription & Call capture : Never lose a word

Odoo 19 introduces voice transcription right in Chatter –

• Record client calls or meetings and instantly transcribe them into actionable, searchable updates.
• AI picks out main decisions, risks, and next steps for quick reference.

Let’s suppose retail managers log calls with suppliers; Odoo transcribes every agreement, posting tasks and notes automatically for the whole team.

4) Rich mentions, Team notifications and List Chatter

Mentions are smarter – @sales alerts everyone in sales, while role-based groups keep notifications meaningful. Formatting, emoji and status indicators make Chatter feel just as instant and “alive” as the best messaging apps. 

The new “List Chatter” even allows commenting or sharing info without opening each record- huge for fast-moving support and order teams.

5) Attachments & Automated Workflows – No more Tab Switching

Drag-and-drop files into Chatter, let AI summarize attachments, and trigger server actions for instant approvals or follow-ups- all from one screen. Chatter now natively links files with documents, invoices and records, streamlining work and eliminating wasted clicks.

What this means for your business

• Sales Approvals : CC replies eliminate email chasing, visible audit trails speed up deal closure.
• Project Teams : AI summaries help managers turn 40+ message threads into manageable task lists, cutting review time.
• Support & Field Service : Voice notes feed directly into service workflows, keeping everyone up to date despite rapid field changes.
• Compliance : All communication – emails, files, calls – is loggable and retrievable for audits and client reviews.

What’s the big picture for 2025 and beyond?

Odoo 19 Chatter is not just about features. It solves business miscommunication at its root bridging teams, regions and data silos. 

Powerful AI adds productivity while preserving trust and auditability. 

Increasingly remote teams, compliance demands and global operations make fast, accurate communication non-negotiable.  For global businesses competing on speed and transparency, this is a new baseline – not a someday “nice-to-have”.
