What it does

Dialpad Ai is the AI built into Dialpad's business phone, meeting, and contact-center system. It transcribes calls in real time, analyzes sentiment, and scores calls automatically. Sales and support staff get AI Live Coach, which gives guidance during a live conversation, and AI Recaps, which summarize a call and suggest next steps. A newer AI Agent can handle some customer inquiries on its own, priced through a separate pool of usage credits. It is not a separate add-on; it has been part of Dialpad since 2018. Dialpad states compliance with SOC 2, ISO standards, HIPAA, GDPR, and CSA, and says customer conversations are not shared outside the account.

Where it can help

This fits a company ready to replace its phone system, not one looking for a notetaker to add to existing Zoom calls, since the AI is built into Dialpad's core platform. It suits sales and support teams that want live coaching during a call, not just a summary afterward. Dialpad does not publish per-seat pricing for its core plans, and the AI Agent uses a separate credit-based price, so get a full quote covering both before comparing it to a simpler meeting-notes tool. Switching phone systems is a bigger project than adding a notetaker, so plan a longer evaluation and migration window. The main risk is treating this as a lightweight add-on when it is really a full phone-system decision. The URL on file was only a login page; the correct sources are Dialpad's AI and pricing pages.

How the number is calculated

The score converts the baseline ELO rating onto the TriVista scale. The headline badge rounds to a whole number. Scores are not silently clipped or capped.

TriVista Score = 50 + (ELO − 1350) / 6

Before you choose
  • Customer feedback is not yet strong enough to change the starting rating.
  • The starting rating includes a product-specific comparison.
  • Check the current price before you decide.
  • We recorded rollout time, how it runs, and when it does not fit.
How company details affect the score

The model adjusts the starting rating using the company details you select. Use these estimates to prioritize your review, then test the tool against your own requirements.

Exit and rollback

Review before rollout: confirm how to export your data, revoke access, and return to your existing workflow. Assign an owner and test the rollback plan before expanding use.
