Call Scoring

Enabling Call Scoring on your Tracking Number will use our proprietary machine-based learning capabilities to automatically score your call as being a lead versus non-lead, a voice-mail, or an existing customer. Please note additional fees may apply when using this feature, contact Customer Success for additional Information.

When this feature is enabled, calls to your Tracking Number will be scored. Please note that call scoring can only be used in conjunction with the call recording feature. For additional details on how to configure call recording please refer to the Call Recording portion of this documentation.

While this feature is enabled in the transcription settings portion of the request, call scoring may be completed without generating a transcription.

Please note that this feature is enabled at the "call_route" level. For additional information on enabling the transcription feature for Tracking Numbers with complex routing options, please refer to the Call Routing portion of this documentation.

This feature is enabled via the Number Number Resource, and can be configured during the provisioning of a Tracking Number, or applied later as an update.
