Multiply that across large contact-center volumes, and transcription can quickly become a bottleneck.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Automated transcription changes this workflow. When properly configured, Genesys Cloud converts voice interactions into speaker-separated text with timing information and sentiment analysis. This transformation unlocks several operational advantages:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Compliance monitoring at scale<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Search and analyze more interactions for disclosure requirements and other compliance-related phrases<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Agent coaching precision<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Search transcripts for specific phrases, objections, or handling patterns across larger interaction volumes<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Customer insight extraction<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Identify recurring topics and sentiment trends without manually listening to every recording<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Dispute resolution speed<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Search the transcript and use timestamps to locate relevant conversation moments more quickly<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For contact centers handling sensitive conversations-such as healthcare, financial services, or legal intake-transcription can create a searchable record that supports review workflows. Organizations still need to configure recording, access, redaction, retention, and other controls according to their own legal and regulatory requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Choosing the Right Transcription Method for Genesys Recordings<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Genesys Cloud supports three transcription-engine paths, subject to licensing and configuration:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Native Genesys Cloud Voice Transcription<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Genesys Cloud Voice Transcription is the platform&#8217;s default transcription engine when voice transcription is available under your Genesys licensing and configuration. It is designed specifically for contact-center conversations and supports dictionary management for organization-specific terminology.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Extended Voice Transcription Services (EVTS)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EVTS uses Amazon Transcribe to provide additional language and dialect support beyond the native Genesys engine. Choose it when your required dialect is supported by EVTS but not by Native Voice Transcription, or when you want an alternative supported engine for a particular language.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Transcription Connector<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transcription Connector allows Genesys Cloud to stream voice interactions to a compatible third-party transcription provider using the AudioHook protocol. Organizations that need a preferred provider, niche transcription specialist, or custom language model can explore this path. Genesys charges for Transcription Connector usage on a per-minute basis, and the external provider may have its own pricing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your selection depends on several factors:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Language requirements<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Native Voice Transcription supports a defined set of languages and dialects, while EVTS extends coverage<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Volume considerations<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Native and Extended transcription are subject to fair-use allocations<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Customization needs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Different engines offer different vocabulary and customization options<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Budget constraints<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Transcription Connector introduces additional usage charges and may involve separate third-party costs<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For teams needing post-call analysis, archival workflows, or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sonix.ai\/features\/automated-translation\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">multi-language translation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, external transcription platforms can complement Genesys&#8217;s native capabilities rather than replace them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Seamlessly Transcribe Genesys Recordings with AI Speech-to-Text Software<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Setting up automatic transcription in Genesys Cloud involves several organization, queue, flow, language, and optional transcription-engine settings.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Initial Configuration Steps<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Enable Voice Transcription<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Navigate to Menu &gt; Conversation Intelligence &gt; Speech and Text Analytics &gt; Speech and Text Configuration. On the Settings tab, under Voice Transcription, select &#8220;Enabled based on Queue configuration or Flow action.&#8221; You can also enable Low Latency Transcription, which Genesys documents as reducing expected Notification API transcript latency from approximately 35-40 seconds to 3-5 seconds at no additional cost.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Configure Queue-Based Transcription<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enable Voice Transcription for the queues that require it. Voice transcription must first be enabled for the organization. Depending on the call flow, you may also need to enable transcription through an Architect Transcription action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Separately, verify the appropriate trunk and Architect\/media-language settings so Genesys uses the correct transcription language for the interaction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Set Up Dictionary Management<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use Menu &gt; Conversation Intelligence &gt; Speech and Text Analytics &gt; Dictionary Management to add organization-specific terms such as brand names, acronyms, and industry terminology.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Genesys Native Voice Transcription entries, you can add &#8220;Sounds Like&#8221; alternatives and example phrases to improve recognition. EVTS dictionary entries use different fields and do not support the same Sounds Like and example-phrase options.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Common Setup Challenges<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Several issues can affect first-time configurations:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Missing transcripts<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Confirm that the organization, queue or flow, licensing, and recording requirements for your telephony configuration are satisfied.

Sonix works with the exported recording, allowing teams to use the transcript for QA, coaching, compliance review, research, translation, or archival workflows.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Enhancing Call Center Operations with AI Transcription Tools<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transcription alone creates searchable records. The real operational leverage comes from what you do with those transcripts once they exist.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Quality Assurance Transformation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional QA depends heavily on supervisors selecting and reviewing individual interactions. With automatic transcription, Speech and Text Analytics can analyze eligible interactions at scale and surface conversation signals such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Topic detection<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Identify interactions containing configured topics and phrases<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sentiment tracking<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Surface positive and negative sentiment markers in supported interactions<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Conversation search<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Locate words, phrases, and transcript moments without listening through the complete recording<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Formal quality evaluations and scorecards remain part of Genesys Quality Management rather than being replaced by transcript analytics alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Agent Development Applications<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transcripts can also support coaching and training by giving supervisors and agents searchable examples of previous conversations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Genesys Agent Copilot is configured with appropriate triggers or intents, it can surface assigned knowledge articles during an interaction. Voice interactions can also display a live transcript in Agent Copilot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sonix.ai\/features\/collaborate-with-teams\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">team collaboration<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, shared transcript libraries can reduce the &#8220;listen to this call&#8221; bottleneck that slows coaching conversations and performance reviews.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Boosting Productivity with Advanced Transcription Tools for Genesys Calls<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The productivity gains from transcription can extend across multiple workflows. A transcribed call may support QA review, training examples, compliance documentation, and customer insight analysis without requiring every stakeholder to listen to the entire recording.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Editor Features That Matter<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Effective transcription tools can include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Synchronized playback<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Click transcript text to jump directly to the corresponding audio moment<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Speaker identification or diarization<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Separate dialogue by speaker to make conversations easier to follow<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Confidence highlighting<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Visual indicators that help reviewers focus on words the transcription engine is less confident about<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Find and replace<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Correct recurring transcription errors efficiently<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sonix&#8217;s browser-based transcript editor supports synchronized playback, speaker identification, confidence indicators, and tools for correcting transcript text.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Export Flexibility<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Different workflows require different formats.

When Low Latency Transcription is enabled, Genesys documents expected Notification API latency of approximately 3-5 seconds, compared with 35-40 seconds without the setting. Genesys also says the complete interaction transcript is usually available shortly after the interaction ends, although actual availability can vary by configuration and processing conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>What languages does Genesys transcription support?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Native Genesys Cloud Voice Transcription supports a defined set of languages and regional dialects rather than 30+ languages. Extended Voice Transcription Services provides broader language and dialect coverage using Amazon Transcribe. Because support differs by engine and can change, check the current Genesys Cloud supported-languages matrix before deployment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Can I transcribe historical Genesys recordings that were captured before enabling transcription?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Genesys&#8217;s documented voice-transcription workflow is designed for interactions configured for transcription. If you have older Genesys recordings that do not already have transcripts, a practical option is to export the available audio and process it through an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sonix.ai\/audio-transcription\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">external transcription service<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, subject to your organization&#8217;s recording-access, retention, privacy, and compliance requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>What happens when I exceed the fair use allocation for transcription?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Genesys calculates voice-transcription fair-use allocations for the organization based on the number and type of billable licenses, and the allocation can be used across Native and Extended Voice Transcription. If the organization exceeds its pooled allocation, Genesys bills usage above the allocation on a per-minute basis. Administrators can monitor usage through Genesys Billing &amp; Usage.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Is real-time transcription available with BYOC Premises deployments?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not through the standard Native or Extended Voice Transcription workflow. Genesys says that with BYOC Premises, the completed recording is uploaded before transcription begins, so real-time use cases are not supported through that configuration. Processing time depends on the interaction length and usually takes about half the duration of the recording-for example, a completed 10-minute interaction may take around five minutes to transcribe after it is uploaded.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your contact center records customer interactions, but your QA team can manually review only a subset of calls, leaving valuable insights buried in audio files.
