What Is Call Scoring?
Call Scoring lets you define quality standards for your calls and have AI automatically grade every conversation against them. After a call ends and is transcribed, the AI evaluates it based on the criteria you set — things like professionalism, problem resolution, or script adherence — and produces a score from 0 to 100 for each criterion, plus an overall score.
You can use scores to identify coaching opportunities, recognize high-performing team members, and track call quality trends over time.
What Is a Scorecard?
A Scorecard (also called a rubric) is the set of standards you want calls measured against. Each scorecard contains:
-
Criteria — the individual qualities being evaluated (for example, Professional Tone or Resolved Customer Issue)
-
Weights — how much each criterion contributes to the overall score (all weights must add up to 100%)
-
Scoring guidelines — descriptions that tell the AI what excellent, good, acceptable, and needs-improvement performance looks like for each criterion
-
Targeting rules — which calls this scorecard applies to (by direction, phone number, call group, category, and more)
When a call matches a scorecard's targeting rules, the AI grades it against all criteria and produces:
-
A score per criterion (0–100)
-
A weighted overall score (0–100)
-
Reasoning for each score, including supporting quotes from the transcript
-
Coaching tips summarizing where the call could have gone better
How Scoring Works
-
A call ends and is transcribed
-
The system checks which scorecard's targeting rules match the call
-
If a match is found and the call meets the minimum duration, the AI analyzes the transcript
-
Scores, reasoning, and coaching tips are saved to the call record
-
Results appear in the call log detail view and on your Coaching dashboard
One scorecard per call.
If you have multiple scorecards, they are evaluated in priority order — the first one that matches a call is applied. You control priority order with the up/down arrows in your scorecard list.

How to View Call Scores
On individual calls:
In the call log, open any analyzed call to see the full breakdown — overall score, per-criterion scores, the AI's reasoning, transcript quotes, and coaching tips.
On the Coaching dashboard:
The Coaching page surfaces your lowest-scored calls so you can quickly find and review calls that need attention. You can filter by scorecard if you have more than one active.
Manual scoring:
If Auto-Analyze is off, or if a call wasn't scored automatically, open the call record and click Trigger Analysis to run scoring on demand.
