AI Receptionist Call Recording & Transcription: What to Capture and Why
Without recordings, coaching your team or verifying disputes becomes guesswork.
Why record and transcribe?
- Accountability: Listen to how scripts flow and adjust quickly.
- Quality control: Spot trends where callers drop off.
- Documentation: Save transcripts for liability or warranty situations.
- Searchability: Quickly find calls mentioning specific streets or equipment.
What to capture
- Caller identity and phone number.
- Issue description with context (leaking heater, breaker trip, tenant locked out).
- Action taken (appointment set, tech dispatched, follow-up scheduled).
- Tags for sentiment or urgency.
