Complete, up-to-date deal visibility is a must in today’s fast moving, interconnected sales environment. Teams across sales, marketing, and customer success alike can’t rely on manual recording or forecasting to meet goals.

That’s where Revenue Intelligence Platforms come in. Built using cutting-edge AI and Machine Learning research, Revenue Intelligence Platforms, also referred to as Revenue Operations Platforms, help facilitate more intelligent insights to help teams drive sales and meet goals.

Here’s how it works. Revenue Intelligence Platforms first capture customer interactions in real-time using top Speech-to-Text APIs for accurate asynchronous and real-time transcription. Then, the platforms use Natural Language Understanding/Natural Language Processing (NLU/NLP) tools, referred to as Audio Intelligence APIs. These could include APIs that offer Sentiment Analysis, Entity Detection, Summarization, Speaker Diarization, Topic Detection, and more, that offer a deeper understanding of each customer and across conversations.

Together, both transcription plus Audio Intelligence offer companies advanced insights that directly lead to better deal conversion, more satisfactory customer interactions, and fast ROI–all wrapped up in an easy-to-use, intelligent platform.

This article looks at some of the top companies offering these Revenue Intelligence Platforms today.
