What is a Sales Call Intelligence?
Sales call intelligence transcribes consented sales calls and reviews them against your own playbook — discovery questions asked, objections handled, next step set — so a manager gets a short list of coaching moments per rep instead of hours of recordings. It supports the manager; it does not replace coaching.
Sales managers know coaching works and rarely have time for it. Listening to calls takes as long as the calls did, so reviews happen only after a bad week — and then on memory, not evidence.
The input
Recorded calls where every party has consented to recording
Your playbook: stages, required questions, objection handling, next-step rules
Rep and deal context from the CRM
The workflow

Output
System / integration
Consent check
A call is only recorded and processed if the consent rules for that call's jurisdictions are met. Otherwise it is logged without audio.
System / integration
Transcribe
The recording is transcribed with speaker labels.
AI step
Review against the playbook
The transcript is checked against your own checklist — not a generic one — with the quote that supports each finding.
AI step
Coaching moments
The review picks the two or three moments most worth a manager's attention, with timestamps.
Human step
Manager reviews
The manager listens to the flagged moments, agrees or disagrees, and coaches the rep.
Output
Coaching record
Each rep builds a history of reviewed calls, patterns and coaching notes over time.

Short, evidence-backed call reviews

What the AI does, and what people do
The AI
Summarizes each call into what happened and what's next
Checks the call against your playbook and quotes the evidence
Surfaces patterns across a rep's calls over weeks
The human
Writes and owns the playbook the calls are measured against
Decides what the rep is told, and whether the AI's read is right
Owns every performance or compensation decision
Business impact
What changes when it runs
Managers coach from evidence instead of memory
Reps get specific feedback on specific calls
The playbook improves from what actually happens on calls
We describe impact qualitatively until we have measured numbers. Verified figures appear on case studies only.
Who it's for
Sales managers with more reps than hours
Teams with a defined playbook they want followed consistently
Not a fit if…
Teams without consent to record calls
Anyone looking to automate performance reviews or discipline
How the review is structured
A generic “sales score” isn’t useful to a manager. The review is built from your playbook as a checklist, and every finding points to the words on the call that support it. When the transcript doesn’t contain enough to judge, the review says unknown rather than guessing — the same evidence rule we use for lead and applicant qualification.
Why it’s labeled “built,” not “live”
The transcription and review pipeline exists in our internal sales tooling behind a switch, and it has been tested. It is not currently running on live calls, because we only turn on recording where the consent setup has been reviewed. We’d rather label it honestly than claim a live feature.
Where AI belongs in a sales process and where it doesn't: the decisions we keep human in every system we build, and the rule we use to tell the difference.

Questions
Sales Call Intelligence: common questions
Does it listen in real time?
No. Today it reviews calls after they end. Real-time coaching during a call is labeled concept on this page until it is built and running.
What about recording-consent laws?
Several US states require every party's consent to record. The system is designed to process only calls where consent rules are met; your specific setup should be reviewed by counsel.

Beta: SMS follow-up and re-engagement run in our own businesses. The automatic AI voice callback is in development and is not live yet.
An AI lead response system replies to every new inquiry within seconds, asks the qualifying questions you would ask, books a time with a person, and keeps following up until the lead answers or opts out — then hands a qualified, summarized lead to a human.

Beta: Applicant intake and screening run live for Certified Contracting. Outbound messaging is waiting on Meta app review and carrier SMS registration.
An AI recruiting engine takes applicants from recruiting ads, asks only the screening questions their application didn't answer, rates each requirement with the applicant's own words as evidence, and books qualified people into interviews. A person makes every hiring decision.

Live: Running for Certified Leadz's own outbound calling. Every call is placed by a person.
An outbound prospecting engine finds businesses that match your ideal customer every night, scores them with transparent rules, removes anyone who can't legally or sensibly be called, and gives each rep a prioritized queue with a one-screen brief — so the day starts with dialing, not list-building.

Coming soon: In development for Certified Leadz's own line. Not live yet — we'll change this label when it is answering real calls.
An AI receptionist answers the business phone line first, identifies itself as an assistant, handles routine questions, captures who is calling and why, and transfers the call — or books a callback — when a person is needed. Every call ends as a logged record with a summary.
