Smart Transcription automatically converts spoken words during phone calls into text, helping you efficiently document and review conversations. This feature is designed to save time, enhance customer understanding, improve decision-making, and ensure consistency in your customer interactions.

Why use Smart Transcription?

Listening to entire call recordings can be tedious and time-consuming. With Smart Transcription, you can quickly gain valuable insights from calls without having to listen to them in full. This feature is particularly useful for supervisors and managers who need to assess agent performance, monitor customer interactions, and ensure quality service.

Key features of Smart Transcription

  1. Speaker separation - distinguishes between the agent and the caller, making it easier to follow the conversation.

  2. Sentiment detection - classifies the tone of the conversation as positive, negative, or neutral, helping you understand customer emotions.

  3. Keyword highlighting - identifies and highlights important terms and phrases, allowing you to focus on key points.

  4. Categorization & tagging - automatically classifies conversations based on content, helping you organize and prioritize calls.

  5. Custom keyword frequency - tracks how often participants use selected keywords, providing insights into recurring topics.
