### Considerations

**Date range limitations:**AI Briefer supports preset or custom date ranges up to 1 year. Within that range, it covers up to 60 calls and 500 emails. If your selection exceeds this, not all conversations will be included.

**Scope alignment:**Brief types may contain CRM fields that are associated with deals, accounts, leads, or contacts. If you’re viewing a brief type that contains CRM fields that don’t align with the entity you’re viewing, some data may be unavailable. For example, if you’re viewing an account and choose a brief type with deal-related CRM fields, or you’re viewing a contact and choose a brief type with lead-related CRM fields, some data may be unavailable.
