Automatically Detected Metrics

7 min read

Slated CX automatically processes all conversations that happen in Salted CX Live Conversations and other integrated contact center platforms. It automatically reviews multiple performance factors and surfaces metrics in dashboards and reports. These auto-detected data are provided to individual engagements. The following attributes and metrics are provided if they are relevant for the given engagement.

PropertyDescription
Expressed SatisfactionAutomatically detected customer satisfaction that is explicitly expressed by the customer. This can be statements like “your process is ridiculous”, “thank you so much, you saved my day”.
Customer SatisfactionAutomatically detected customer satisfaction based on the conversation content even when customer does not explicitly express it. This takes into consideration what is discussed and how smoothly the conversation goes from the customer.
UnderstandingAutomatically detected the agent ability to understand the customer request and responding to the actual customer question including details and specifics related to that customer request. When agent responds too generally, responds to a question that is not asked or does not cover customer specifics of the requests it lowers the score. The need of customer to repeat their requests or important details of it lowers this score.
AdaptabilityAutomatically detects agent’s ability to deviate from their script of process to improve the customer experience. This metric requires as an input the processes description in the company for accurate numbers. Without those this metric is filled for small number of conversation where it can be assumed the agent is limited by a process.
AdherenceAutomatically detects agent adherence to a script or process. This metric requires as an input the processes description in the company for accurate numbers. Without those this metric is filled for small number of conversation where it can be assumed the agent is limited by a process.
ClarityAutomatically detects clarity of the response. This tries to identify whether there is no ambiguity. Clarity score is also negatively impacted if there is unnecessary filling phrases or phrases that repeat simple customer requests.
CompletenessAutomatically detects completeness of the agent responses. When the customer needs to ask additional questions the score is negatively impacted.
Language SkillsAutomatically detects the agent language — spelling, grammar, interpunction and phrasing.
PersuasionAutomatically detects the agent ability to persuade the customer, address their concerns and objections.
ResolutionAutomatically detects whether the customer request was resolved and categorizes it into one of these: Resolved — the agent resolved the customer request so the customer confirms it is resolved Unresolved — the customer gives a feedback that the proposed solution does not work for them and there is no other solution provided by the agent No Response — the agent seemingly provided a solution from the customer but there is not a followup response from the customer so it is not possible with high confidence to classify the resolution Declined — the agent provided the customer with a solution the customer does not agree with but the solution is based on the company policy and the conversation is considered concluded even when the customer request is not addressed they way the customer wanted
SeverityAutomatically detects severity of the customer request. The severity indicates how impacted the customer would be if their request is not resolved. High severity indicates health impacts, high financial impact, inability to experience important live events, etc. Low severity are generic informative questions.
EmpathyAutomatically detects empathy on the agent side such as acknowledgment of the customer frustration and responding accordingly when the customer is agitated or in distress.
TopicThe key topic that is discussed in the engagement. There is only one key topic per engagement even when there are potentially more topics discussed. The topic is intended to be filled by AI.
Topic CategoryThe categorization of the topics to higher level. The topic category is intended to be filled with AI.

Content Considered by Auto Summary

The conversations may be complex, involve multiple participants, the same agent may join multiple times, and the conversation may change channels.

The Auto Summary always provides results on the engagement level. Each conversation may have multiple auto summaries if it has multiple engagements.

Auto summary of individual engagements:

  • Takes into consideration selected turns prior the analyzed engagement End Time no matter which engagement in the same conversation the turns are related to. This enables the auto summary to better understand the context (what customer mentioned before agent joined, what information was already collected, etc.)
  • Ignores all turns after the engagement End Time even when they are associated with the engagement. This can be for example “Thank you”, “Goodbye” from the customer that is intentionally ignored as it is not actionable.
  • At least one non-customer turn must be present in the engagement to be included in the auto summary.
  • Auto Summary focuses on the given engagements but is influenced by the rest of the conversation.
  • The maximum number of turns preceding the analyzed engagement is limited to 50, but may be lower in conversations that contain very long turns (long emails).

Please reach out to the travel agency to verify what the rebooking options are, because the rebooking is less than 2 weeks before departure.

Customer: Are you serious? I spend thousands of dollars with you every year, and I cannot even get like $200 back in my entire lifetime? There are still 4 days until the trip starts, surely you can still sell my seat to somebody.
