PolyAI gives you two main tools to access and review your conversations:

  1. Dashboards – high-level metrics and trends
  2. Conversation review – transcript-level inspection and tagging

This page shows the quickest way to use both.

Pick the right dashboard

Use caseGo here
Daily health check (calls, containment, AHT)Standard dashboard
Risk or policy complianceSafety dashboard
Anything bespoke (e.g. bookings, revenue)Custom dashboards – ask your CSM if you don’t see one

Dashboards default to Production and last 7 days. Change the environment or date range at the top-right.

Example workflow: did my FAQ edit improve containment?

  1. Open the Standard dashboard.
  2. Set the date range:
    • From = the day you promoted the change
    • To = today
  3. Check Containment rate.
    • If it went up → good sign
    • If it dropped or stayed flat, drill down to conversations (next section)

Review conversations

  1. Go to Analyze → Conversations → Review.
  2. Use filters:
    • Date range – same window you used in the dashboard
    • Topic – select the FAQ you edited
  3. Click a call to open the transcript.
  4. Check:
    • Did the agent serve the new answer?
    • Did the caller stay in self-service or ask for a human?
  5. If something looks off, tag it.

Tagging and annotations

At the bottom-right of a transcript:

  • Category – pick a label like Needs KB fix or Escalated unnecessarily
  • Annotation – flag Wrong transcription or Missing topic

These tags surface in QA reports and help PS/Product spot patterns.

Export transcripts (optional)

Need raw data for deeper analysis?

  1. In Conversations, select your filters.
  2. Click ExportCSV or JSON.
  3. You’ll get a download link with call metadata and the full transcripts.

See Call data → Transcripts for field definitions.
