What are Out-The-Box Insight Topics and Automated Line Items?
Our core evaluagentCX plan aims to give you a taster of SmartIntelligence and SmartScore by providing a collection of Insight Topics and Automated Line Items "Out of the Box". These have been built by the evaluagent team and cover a broad scope of scenarios to help you find your "Must-Monitor" conversations and speed up the evaluation process with Automated Line Items.
What is the difference between Insight Topics and Automated Line Items?
Insight Topics are applied across 100% of your analysed conversation to help you find "Must-Monitor" conversations and understand the total % of conversations whereby language associated with, for example, "Repeat Contact" has been found or not been.
Insight Topics are automatically enabled on all evaluagentCX accounts so you do not need to do anything. Access to the "EvaluAgent Insights" Tab can be controlled via Permissions.
Automated Line Items are enabled in your account by default however you must add them when building your scorecard to see them in action. Over time, if you wish to review the accuracy of these Automated Line Items across several evaluations to give you a sense of accuracy then we recommend using the SmartScore Report.
What Insight Topics and Automated Line Items are available out the box?
We fully expect to expand our list of Insight Topics and Automated Line Items over time. As of January '24, the list is currently:

How to provide feedback on the accuracy of Out the Box Insight Topics and Automated Line Items
Our library of Out The Box Insight Topics and Automated Line Items aim to cover the majority of common use cases & conversation patterns that exist within Customer Service and Sales conversations. Having said that, the accuracy and usefulness will depend on any complexity/uniqueness/nuance within the conversations your contact centre handle. For example - without SmartIntelligence or SmartScore we cannot cater for your business's unique brand voice.
It is important to also recognise that any system will never be 100% accurate with many influencing factors which is why any Insight Topic should be used as a guiding indicator and in conjunction with other filters for maximum effectiveness.
As we continually review the effectiveness of each Out The Box Insight Topic and Automated Line Item, the EvaluAgent Product team would love to hear your feedback so if you discover a trend of conversation not being tagged with an Insight Topic where you believe it should then please raise this product feedback via the Support Desk. They will ask you for evidence within at least 15 conversations, the reference number, the current behaviour and expected behaviour before being able to consider any request.
