Introducing topic mining
Topic miner analyzes conversation transcripts to determine commonly used phrases and groups them into topics, complete with real-world utterances. Administrators can refine and customize the topics and phrases, and then import them into the topic manager for use in speech and text analytics. This feature enables analysts to use the mined data to create new topics or improve existing topics and minimizes the need to rely on business process knowledge and manual call review. For more information, see About the topic miner. This feature requires one of the following subscriptions: Genesys Cloud CX 1 WEM Add-on II, Genesys Cloud CX 2 WEM Add-on I, or Genesys Cloud CX 3.
