<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My understanding of it is that it’s “assisted” and not using the magic Webex Assistant technology. I clicked on the box the other day just for novelty and it pops up saying that
you agree by clicking on this that portions of conversations may be sent to a third party for transcription. This mechanical turk method I think is what a number of other recognition/OCR “apps” used. I don’t speak for my org in this capacity so I clicked cancel.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
As far as the speech recognition goes, I believe it uses the Nuance engine in the background. We have a large international population which is hopeless with this thing, but even some bog standard stuff is just impossible. You can supply alternate grammars,
but, at one point I found myself having it read things back to me to get an idea of what it thought the grammar was, I don’t think it uses any sort of markup there. Setting the confidence level lower helped somewhat but it also delayed the response on the
speech enabled auto attendants. The ONLY benefit to this thing that I’ve found is that it lets dial-by-name directories work if the customer hasn’t recorded their own name.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We looked at a myriad of these back in the day, I think Parlance had the better solution since it was turnkey and fully taken care of, but, last time I’d looked the price had gone
up and it wasn’t very many ports when we were talking about all the IVRs we wanted to put into it. Back then I don’t think they really intended for it to front end 100 departments and a main number.<u></u><u></u></p>
