Live Insight

The system can use the live transcript to suggest intent, push CRM context, or trigger supervisor alerts while the call is still active.

Core Capabilities

Focus on the conversation while it is happening

This page introduces how Firetell presents transcripts in a clear, readable format that is ready for contact center operations.

Realtime streaming

Speech is converted to text with minimal delay so supervisors and downstream systems can react sooner.

Multi-channel separation

Clearly separate the agent and caller channels to keep transcripts structured and more useful for quality review.

Operational readiness

Use transcripts as input for search, summaries, scoring, or downstream automation.

How It Works

From live audio to structured transcript

This page outlines a typical flow so the transcript is not only readable on screen, but useful for operations and analytics.

1

Capture live call audio

Firetell ingests the audio stream while the call is still active and prepares it for speech recognition.

2

Separate channels and tag speakers

The system distinguishes caller and callee so each utterance stays organized, traceable, and easy to review.

3

Deliver transcript into operations

The transcript can be displayed in dashboards, stored for later review, or routed into QA, analytics, and AI workflows.

Structured Output

More than text, it is usable operational data

When transcripts are structured from the start, teams can search, analyze, and automate much faster.

Speaker Labels

Each utterance is tagged as Agent or Caller for faster and more reliable transcript reading.

Timeline

It can be extended with timestamps per segment to support reviews, investigations, and recording lookup.

Searchable Text

Text transcripts make it easy to search for keywords, order IDs, issues, or intents within seconds.

Workflow Input

Transcript data can feed summaries, QA scoring, sentiment models, or real-time alerts.

Operational Value

Clear benefits for support, QA, and supervisors

When conversations become data during the call itself, many downstream manual tasks can be reduced.

Find the right conversation segment faster instead of replaying the full recording.
Support audits and compliance checks with clearly labeled speaker turns.
Enable real-time alerts when important keywords or escalation signals appear.
Create a strong foundation for analytics dashboards and call quality reporting.
Reduce post-call review time for operations and QA teams.
Integrate more easily with storage systems, CRMs, or downstream AI tools.
Use Cases

Where does Live Transcription fit best?

This feature is most valuable when transcripts need to be used during operations, not just stored for later playback.

Contact Center Monitoring

Supervisors can follow live calls without having to listen continuously to the full audio stream.

Sales Verification

Sales ops teams can quickly verify key points such as customer intent, pricing discussion, or closing conditions.

Compliance Review

Quality and legal teams can review required disclosures or sensitive wording much more efficiently.

AI Assist & Summaries

Realtime transcripts provide the foundation for summaries, suggested replies, or downstream AI workflows.

Pricing

Simple pricing for realtime transcription

Start with a clear usage-based model that is easy to forecast and flexible enough for both pilots and growing contact center workloads.

Usage-Based

Easy to start, no complex packages

A good fit for teams that want to launch quickly or scale gradually with real traffic instead of committing to a fixed bundle upfront.

Production Ready

Rich enough for real operational workflows

Capabilities like diarization, timestamps, and confidence scores make the transcript useful not only for reading, but also for QA, analytics, and downstream automation.

Best Fit

Ideal when transcript visibility matters during the call

This works especially well for live monitoring, supervisor assist, AI prompt context, or any workflow that needs call content almost in real time.

Toggle in Console

Live Transcription can be turned on or off directly in the console, giving your team control over when to use it and how to manage cost by workflow.
