 Overview

The Call Sentiment Analysis & Insight Workflow in Kylas CRM allows businesses to:

  • Automatically transcribe recorded calls using AI.

  • Generate a structured call summary in a timestamped format.

  • Add custom questions to extract insights specific to your business operations.

  • Automatically populate these summaries and insights into the Call Log Notes and Insights Section of the CRM.

This ensures faster, more accurate post-call reviews — without the need for manual listening or note-taking.


Prerequisites

Before setting up the workflow, ensure you have:

  • A Kylas CRM account with Workflow Automation enabled.

  • Access to the Call Logs entity.

  • Active call recordings being logged in the system.

  • AI-powered workflow permissions (Sherpa AI Beta / AI Action enabled).


How It Works

  1. When a call is logged in CRM (e.g., from integrated telephony),

  2. The workflow automatically checks if the call meets the defined criteria (like duration, recording availability).

  3. The system uses AI to transcribe the recording based on a custom prompt.

  4. The transcription and answers to predefined questions are generated and added to the call record.

Example Output:

  • Timestamped transcript

  • Summary

  • Insights answering key questions (like “Did the agent explain the product properly?”)


Steps to Set Up Call Transcript & Insight Workflow

Step 1: Access Workflows

  1. Go to Settings → Automation → Workflows.

  2. Click + Create New Workflow.

  3. Give your workflow a name — e.g., Call Sentiment Analysis Workflow.

Step 2: Create a Workflow for Call Logs

  • Select Entity: Choose Call Log.

  • This ensures the workflow runs automatically when a call log is created.

Step 3: Define Trigger and Conditions

  1. Trigger Event:

    • Choose When a call log is created.

    • Select Immediate Action to process as soon as the call is logged.

  2. Set Conditions:

    • Choose Based on conditions.

    • Example setup:

      • Duration (In Seconds)Greater Than20

      • Recording FileIs Set


Notes

📌 This ensures that only valid, recorded calls longer than 20 seconds are analyzed.

Step 4: Add the “Generate Call Summary” Action

  1. Under Set actions to be performed, select Generate Call Summary.

  2. Enter your AI Prompt that defines how the transcription should be structured.

  3. Example Prompt:

    Quote
    You are a helpful assistant that summarizes doctor-patient consultations. Given an audio clip of a medical consultation between a healthcare provider and a patient, transcribe the conversation in the same language as the audio. Format the transcription in a timestamped dialogue style like this: Example: 00:00 Speaker A: Good morning. What brings you in today? 00:04 Speaker B: I've been having chest pains for the past week. If actual names are not available, use placeholders like Speaker A, Speaker B, etc.


Notes

💡 This prompt can be edited as per your business needs — for sales, insurance, or support conversations.

Step 5: Add Custom Questions to Generate Insights

Below the prompt section, click on Generate Insight → Add Questions.
Add the questions you want AI to answer based on the transcript.

Example Questions for a Banking Sales Call:

Alert
  1. Was proper product knowledge shared by the agent?

  2. Did the agent ask for the customer’s phone number?

  3. What is the customer’s loan amount, CIBIL score, and current bank?

  4. What was the customer’s exact requirement?

  5. What action did the agent take after the discussion?

AI will automatically extract and summarize answers from the call transcript.

Step 6: Save and Activate

  • Click Save to finalize your workflow setup.

  • Click Activate to start automating call transcription and insight generation.

Once active, every call that meets the set conditions will be automatically transcribed and analyzed.


Example Output: Generated Insights
