Frequently Asked Questions

Is AI-Powered Solutions a separate product?

No — AI-Powered Solutions is an add-on service that layers artificial intelligence capabilities directly onto your existing ATS Voice product. Whether you're running Cloud Phone System, Hosted PBX, or Contact Center, you keep your current phone numbers, call flows, and user configurations exactly as they are. AI is activated at the account level within 24 hours, with no hardware replacement, no software migration, and no retraining your staff on a new platform. For the 650+ businesses ATS Voice supports across East Tennessee, this means getting real-time transcription, sentiment analysis, and automated call scoring without any disruption to day-to-day operations.

Which products does it work with?

AI-Powered Solutions is compatible with three core ATS Voice products: Cloud Phone System, Hosted PBX, and Contact Center. Each base product unlocks a specific set of AI features — Contact Center customers get the full suite including live agent assist, real-time sentiment dashboards, and automated quality scoring, while Cloud Phone System and Hosted PBX customers receive call transcription, post-call summaries, and trend analytics. ATS Voice's East Tennessee support team will walk you through exactly which AI features apply to your current plan and help you determine whether upgrading your base product would unlock additional capabilities worth the investment.

Is every call transcribed?

Yes. Once AI is enabled on your account, every inbound and outbound call is transcribed automatically in real time — no recording start buttons, no manual uploads, and no post-call processing delays. The transcript appears in the platform while the call is still live, giving agents and supervisors an accurate written record as the conversation happens. After the call ends, transcripts are stored in encrypted cloud storage, tagged with the date, agent, caller number, and sentiment score, and made fully searchable by keyword or phrase. Transcripts are exportable to CSV or PDF for compliance documentation, HR review, legal holds, or agent coaching sessions.

How does sentiment analysis work?

The AI engine continuously analyzes both parties' speech throughout the call — examining word choice, tone markers, pace changes, and emotional language patterns. Every 15 to 30 seconds it assigns a sentiment score of positive, neutral, or negative for each speaker, then plots those scores onto a visual timeline for the call record. After the call, supervisors can open the timeline and pinpoint the exact moment customer sentiment shifted — whether a hold time caused frustration, a pricing conversation triggered concern, or a resolution turned a negative interaction positive. This granular data replaces subjective supervisor impressions with measurable, time-stamped evidence that drives targeted coaching and process improvements.

Does AI replace human agents?

No. AI-Powered Solutions is designed to make human agents more effective, not to replace them. During a live call, the AI handles the tasks that pull agents' attention away from the customer — taking notes, tagging topics, and surfacing relevant knowledge base articles in real time based on what is being discussed. After the call, it generates an automatic summary so agents spend seconds reviewing rather than minutes writing. Managers receive automated quality scores instead of manually sampling 5% of calls. The result is that agents give customers their full attention, handle more calls per shift, and receive better-targeted coaching — all without replacing a single person on the team.

Is there additional cost?

AI-Powered Solutions is available as a per-user add-on to any active ATS Voice plan, billed monthly alongside your existing service. Pricing scales with the number of users and the base product you're running — a small Hosted PBX deployment costs less per seat than a full Contact Center rollout. There are no hidden fees for storage of transcripts, no per-minute AI processing charges, and no separate licensing for the sentiment or scoring features. Because ATS Voice handles billing directly as your local provider, adjustments — adding seats mid-cycle, upgrading your base product — are handled by your account manager without third-party coordination delays.

How long does setup take?

AI features are activated at the account level and are fully operational within 24 hours of your order being placed — often the same business day for existing ATS Voice customers. There is nothing to install on individual computers, no firmware updates to push to desk phones, and no changes to your existing call flows or phone numbers. ATS Voice's Knoxville-based technical team handles the entire activation remotely. Once enabled, agents see transcription and sentiment data appearing automatically in their existing ConnectUC interface. Supervisors access AI dashboards and reports from the same admin portal they already use, so there is no learning curve to get value from the feature on day one.

Is call data secure?

Yes. All AI-generated data — transcripts, sentiment scores, call summaries, quality evaluations — is encrypted both in transit using TLS 1.2 or higher and at rest using AES-256 encryption. The platform maintains HIPAA compliance for healthcare organizations, SOC 2 Type II certification for security controls, and GDPR compliance for any customers with international contacts. Access to transcripts and AI analysis is controlled by role-based permissions in the admin portal, meaning agents only see their own records while supervisors and managers access the reports appropriate to their oversight scope. ATS Voice retains all data within U.S.-based data centers, and retention periods are configurable to meet your industry's specific compliance requirements.
