Conversational analytics is Contact Lens under a new name — Learn it in 5 minutes
About five minutes of reading
The function did not vanish on 4 August 2026. The admin guide changed the name.
Contact Lens was previewed 3 December 2019 and generally available 23 July 2020. Real-time rules arrived 1 December 2020. Chat analytics arrived 29 November 2022. Post-contact summaries became generally available 25 March 2024. The 4 August 2026 document-history note says Contact Lens is now conversational analytics.
You enable it per contact with the recording and analytics block. Real-time concurrent calls default to a quota of 300. Post-call jobs are sized from duration and volume. The planning formula in the quota page is duration times 0.4 times calls per hour, divided by 60.
- Redaction is a setting. Confirm it before you promise it.
- Categories are rules. They are not Lex intents.
- Summaries can be wrong. The recording is the evidence.
- A contact with analytics off produces no transcript to search.
Number on this page: Real-time quota 300. Concurrent calls with analytics
