Prebuilt Language Operators


Language Operators use artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to turn transcripts into structured information using a variety of techniques, including machine learning. Prebuilt Language Operators have been created by Twilio or use third-party AI models. Twilio made Operators are trained across a wide swath of data and typically map to data types that are agnostic to use-case or industry. Prebuilt Language Operators can't be modified or made more specific.

The following Prebuilt Language Operators are currently available for use.

Agent Introduction

Action: Phrase matching

Base Model: Twilio

The Agent Introduction operator determines if an agent introduced themselves on a call.

The Agent Introduction operator doesn't detect a specific type of introduction. If you want to determine whether or not an agent introduced themselves in a specific way, we recommend that you create a Literal Spot operator that looks for the introductions that you are attempting to find.

ClassDescription
trueThe operator spotted an introduction
falseThe operator did not spot an introduction

Escalation Request

Action: Phrase matching

Base Model: Twilio

The Escalation Request operator determines whether or not a customer requested an escalation during a call. It captures events like a customer asking to speak to a manager or a supervisor.

ClassDescription
trueThe operator spotted an escalation request
falseThe operator did not spot an escalation request

Outbound Call Disposition

Action: Classify

Base Model: Twilio

The Outbound Call Disposition operator determines the outcome of an outbound call. It is is geared toward customers who are running outbound dialing campaigns and have a set of outcomes that are focused on campaign list management.

ClassDescription
GhostCallThe call was picked up and one participant does not provide any audio
IVRThe call was picked up by an automated Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system
NoContentThere was no audio during the call

Recording Disclosure

Action: Phrase matching

Base Model: Twilio

The Recording Disclosure operator determines whether or not an agent notified the customer that the call was being recorded. Typically, this operator is used on outbound calls where it doesn't make for a good customer experience if you use a recording to announce that the call is being recorded before a human agent greets the customer.

The Recording Disclosure operator doesn't match a specific type of recording disclosure. If you have a specific disclosure that you want to ensure that agents use, we recommend creating a Literal Spot operator to match the required phrasing.

falseThe operator did not spot a participant mentioning that the call was being recorded

Voicemail Detection

Base Model: Twilio

Unlike the Outbound Call Disposition operator, the Voicemail Detection operator only indicates whether a call was handed to a voicemail system. It does not use acoustic features to determine whether or not the call was actually picked up by the voicemail system.

ClassDescription
voicemailThe call was picked up by a voicemail system
