Call Supervision, Monitoring, and Streaming API

With real-time transcription, the call supervision, monitoring, and streaming API can be leveraged by developers to build an integration that enhances customer service and the enterprise sales function. Through the integration, users can listen in on a call, with access to separate channels including the active speaker and listener for each party on the call, thereby assisting customer facing agents in resolving issues quickly and monitoring performance, which ultimately enhances the overall customer experience.

Dedicated voice specialist, Red Box, enables customers to analyze data from recorded voice conversations in order to maximize its business value. Now with RingCentral’s real-time call streaming API, joint customers of Red Box and RingCentral can access and analyze real-time transcription of conversations to enhance customer service and employee productivity.

“As the number of mobile and dispersed workforces continue to rise, it is more important than ever to provide them with the tools they need to be productive, effective, and efficient,” said Pete Ellis, chief product officer, at Red Box. “With the introduction of this latest API from RingCentral, we’re able to seamlessly integrate AI and voice analytics to capture conversations — all in real-time. Customers then have the ability to leverage the data to drive compliance and strategic business outcomes from a conversation. The API is easy to use due to its comprehensive developer documentation and we’ve received a great deal of support from the RingCentral team.”
