# Pause Labels in Signal AI Studio

> Pause a low-prevalence Label during Signal AI Studio training to unblock the system's search for higher-prevalence labels.

When training a model in Signal AI Studio, the system automatically surfaces calls to help you find examples for your labels. However, if a label has very low prevalence — meaning the specific behavior or phrase rarely occurs in your 5,000-call sample — training can get stuck in a continual loop of no calls found.

Pausing these labels lets the system focus on your higher-prevalence data and unblocks the training flow.

## Why you should pause a label

Consider pausing a label if you notice:

* **Stuck training:** the system can't surface new calls for you to label.
* **Low prevalence:** a label shows 0 or 1 found examples at the bottom of your training list.
* **Too many labels:** you've created multiple small labels competing for a limited number of call examples.

Pausing a label grays it out and stops the logic from searching for those call types, letting the system retry finding truths for your active labels.

When you pause a label, it will:

* Stop surfacing calls for that label during labeling sessions.
* Ignore current true/false counts for that label.
* Ignore current true/false call counts toward the "Verified Calls" total.
* Pause accuracy tracking for that label.
* Preserve its labeled call history.

Labels can be unpaused at any time.

## How to pause a label

1. Log in to the Invoca platform and click the **Signal** tab, then **Signal AI Studio**.
2. Select the model you're currently training.
3. Locate the label list in the training interface and select **Verify Labels**. The Transcript and Active Labels appear.
4. Click the three-dot menu next to the label you want to stop, in the Active Labels section.
5. Select **Pause Label**.
6. The label grays out and moves into a new "Paused Labels" section below the list of labels.
7. Repeat this for other low-prevalence labels until the system begins surfacing calls again.

## How to unpause a label

1. Navigate to your model training screen.
2. Locate the grayed-out paused label.
3. Click the three-dot menu next to the label name.
4. Select **Unpause Label**.
5. Click **Save** to refresh the training logic.
