Access Smart Notes

On a Call Detail page within Analytics or via one of our calling apps, you will be able to see the AI smart notes breakdown in addition to any notes manually added by the agent. All notes will be located in the dedicated Notes tab, with AI notes clearly marked and classified into relevant sections. Bullet points are used to avoid cluttered text blocking.

Notes Breakdown

There are 6 section blocks included in the AI Smart Notes section of the Notes tab of Call Detail.

Call Details

Significant updates and general information, such as participants on the call

Action Items

A list of followup tasks identified within the call

Decisions Made

A list of points that were agreed upon during the call

Open Questions

Questions which require followup after the end of a call

Important Dates and Deadlines

Dates and times identified in the call and the business events they are linked to

Risks and Issues

Potential business risks or issues identified during the call

Savings

In a traditional call center, agents spend too much valuable time manually taking notes. This means less calls per day, and higher company costs which do not translate to direct opportunities to reach clients.

Call Time

An average agent user of CloudTalk handles around 17 calls daily, with each call lasting around 2.97 minutes. 70 seconds of that time is spent manually taking notes. This means the average agent spends 19.83 minutes daily just taking call notes.

  • 70 seconds x 17 calls = 1190 seconds or 19.83 minutes

If time spent note taking was spent making calls instead, a single agent could handle about 6 additional calls per day.

  • 19.83 minutes / 2.97 minutes per call = 6.67 additional calls

Costs

The average hourly wage of a call center agent is $15/hr. With 19.83 minutes saved of note taking time per day, the daily savings for an average agent would be $4.96. This could translate into $1,239.58 saved yearly per agent.

  • $4.96 * 250 working days/year = $1,239.58
