In Zendesk QA, spotlight provides insights into the quality of your conversations and helps you handpick critical conversations for manual review. It automatically surfaces newly synced closed conversations with various out-of-the-box insights to help you identify specific events or signals for further analysis.

Admins and account managers can customize spotlight’s predefined voice insights and edit the insights they have created.

Customizing predefined spotlight insights

You can customize the following predefined spotlight insights:

  • Dead air: Analyzes moments of dead air in voice conversations that last longer than the set threshold. The default industry threshold is 30 seconds, but it can be adjusted to any duration.
  • Recording disclosure missing: Automatically identifies voice calls lacking the mandatory disclosure statement, such as 'This call will be recorded.' It uses a large language model (LLM) to dynamically understand context, eliminating the need for preset phrases. LLM-based AutoQA must be enabled for the Recording disclosure missing spotlight to function.
