How to classify Aircall Sales Call Transcripts with generative AI
As a sales team, it’s important to analyze and understand your customer conversations to identify areas of improvement and make data-driven decisions. However, manually reviewing and analyzing each sales call can be a time-consuming and labor-intensive task. In this post, we’ll show you how to use generative AI to automatically classify Aircall sales call transcripts.
What is Text Classification?
Text classification is a type of natural language processing (NLP) that involves using machine learning algorithms to automatically assign one or more predefined categories or labels to a given piece of text. The algorithms learn from a training set of labeled text data and use statistical models to identify patterns and features in the text that can be used to classify new, unseen text data.
Text classification is used in a variety of applications, from spam detection in emails to sentiment analysis in social media posts and reviews. It has become an essential tool for many industries that rely on large amounts of text data, helping to automate tasks and extract valuable insights from the data.
