Features and benefits of VorTecs Spot It!, version 1.2, include the following:
- An extremely accurate, high-speed audio search mechanism that automates the monitoring process of live and recorded conversations by combining the power of phonetic pre-processing technology with VorTecs' business rules-based CTI monitoring software.

- A unique word- or phrase-spotting functionality combined with a rules-based engine to develop custom rules using extensible VBA to monitor conversations between agents and customers, and to recognize key words or phrases.

- A filtering mechanism that allows monitors to focus on the most important calls, that provides a significant decrease in the amount of manual involvement of supervisors that is required to monitor agent activity.

- A correlation of agent dialogues with existing CTI and CRM systems data, allowing call center managers to assess agent script compliance as well as enhance training and reward programs.


Mine It! is the audio analysis intelligence tool that provides ad-hoc search capabilities using spoken words as an organized data form. It is invoked from the Speech Browser tool bar within Spot It!, and offers an SQL-like interface to process and search audio and combine it with other traditional data forms, such as ANI, DNIS (Dialed Number Identification Service) A service that enables a company to identify which telephone number was dialed. A PBX often receives calls on the same port that were dialed to different 800 or 900 numbers, and the DNIS data contains the dialed number so  and other collected digits. The combination of Spot It! and Mine It! enables the desirable paradigm of "process once, search many".
