Recording and transcripts

Calls your AI agent answers always come with a summary and transcript. Whether other calls are recorded and transcribed is up to you, in Settings → Calls:

  • Record calls records both sides of your calls, including calls between your phones and calls transferred to an extension.
  • Transcribe recorded calls turns each recording into text a few seconds after the call ends, so you can read calls between people too. A call transcribed this way has a transcript but no AI summary or outcome.
  • Tell callers the call may be recorded plays a short notice at the start of each call.

Recordings are deleted automatically after a set number of days. You'll find how long they're kept under Settings → Calls. Download any recording you need to keep for longer. See Settings.
