Application

In this section, we will guide you on how to apply the Coaching and AI modules in your daily working routine.

Access Recordings & Search Function

To access a recording follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Recordings section on your dashboard.

  2. Select the Watch button on the right hand side to access a recording.

Keyword Search

To find specific keywords or phrases within your meeting transcripts, use the search functionality available in your recordings dashboard.

ℹ️ You can also use the keyword search within recordings.


Give & Request Feedback (incl. AI Coach)

ℹ️ The Tool Admin can set up an automation for automatic feedback from the AI Coach, eliminating the need to give or request feedback manually.

If an automation is set up, the AI Coach automatically evaluates meetings based on the specified scorecard model and generates feedback reflecting performance in key areas.

Providing Personal Manual Feedback

To give personal manual feedback follow these steps:

  1. Open the recording.

  2. Click the button "Give feedback"

  3. Select the appropriate scorecard you want to use

  4. Select the team member you want to give feedback to

  5. Go through the scorecard step by step, rate the performance with flames, and add your personal comments where necessary.

  6. Click the button "Submit Feedback" when you're done

Manually requesting Feedback from the AI Coach

To save yourself the manual effort, it is possible to have the scorecard pre-filled by the AI Coach

  1. Open the recording.

  2. Click the button "Give feedback"

  3. Select the appropriate scorecard you want to use

  4. Select the team member you want to give feedback to

  5. Click the button " Pre-fill feedback with AI Coach"

  6. Wait for approx. 3 minutes

  7. Check the answers of the AI Coach and make changes if necessary

  8. Click the button "Submit Feedback" when you're done

ℹ️ The team member to whom the feedback is addressed will receive an email notification when the submit feedback button is clicked, or it is received automatically, depending on whether an automation of the AI Coach is implemented.


Make Comments & Share Moments

ℹ️ Contextual comments enable quick and effective coaching by allowing feedback within the conversation, and you can share a specific moment to direct attention to a precise point in time.

Share a moment from a recording by clicking on the three dots and click "Copy link to moment". This will generate a text with a link that you can share in other places, such as Slack. Every user that clicks on it will be redirected to that specific moment.

If you click "Comment" you will be redirected to the comment section so that you can add a comment for that specific moment. Include the specific timestamp if optionally.

ℹ️ Additional Information:

  • Users with access to recordings can leave comments (except those with viewer licenses).

  • Admins can delete all comments, while users can only delete their own.

  • Only users with a Coaching and AI license can view the respective modules in a recording; all others only have access to the recording itself.


Change AI Summary & Use AI Chat

When the AI has provided the AI summary based on the rules and conditions stored in Demodesk by an admin, you still have the flexibility to change afterwards. The AI will re-analyze the recording using a different summary template or refers to your personal input (prompt) via the AI assistant chat. 

ℹ️ Only the very first AI summary is synchronized to the connected CRM. The synced AI summary will never be deleted or overwritten if you request another summary via the AI chat functionality.

To change the AI summary, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the recordings tab and open your desired recording

  2. Click the button "AI Assistant"

  3. Click the button "Summaries" OR add your specific question/prompt into the AI chat

  4. Click "send" and wait until the AI re-analyzed the recording and provided a new AI summary, etc.

🚀 Pro tip: you can also have the AI create a template for a follow-up email.


Use AI Chat for Deeper Insights (optional)

You can also ask the AI questions based on the meeting conversation. This can be incredibly helpful for clarifying any points discussed or ensuring you have not missed any critical information.

Exemplary Use Cases:

  1. Clarification of Discussion Points:

    • If you are unsure whether a specific topic was covered during the meeting, you can simply ask a question through our AI chat.

      • Example: "Was the marketing budget for Q3 discussed?". The AI will search through the transcript and provide you with the relevant sections where this topic was mentioned.

  2. Drafting Follow-up Emails:

    • After a meeting, it's often necessary to send a follow-up email to summarize the discussion and outline the next steps. Our AI can help you draft this email by using the transcript of your meeting as a reference. You can either use our template or ask the question as follows:

      • Example: "Can you draft a follow-up email summarizing today's discussion about the new product launch?". The AI will generate a draft email, capturing the key points that were discussed.

  3. Verification of Decisions and Actions:

    • It’s important to verify that decisions and action items are accurately captured during meetings. This ensures that you have a clear and accurate record of what was decided and what needs to be done moving forward.

      • Example: "What decisions were made regarding the project timeline?" or "What are the next steps we agreed on for the client proposal?"
