What are evaluations?

Click 'Add score' to begin adding a custom score:
- Channel: these are the types of conversations/interactions that this score will be available for on the evaluations page
Ratings: add the options you would like to show up as rating buttons under the score on the evaluations page, e.g. 'Correct', 'Somewhat incorrect', 'Incorrect' in this screenshot:
- Reasoning Tags (optional): add tags that you'd like to be able to select between for a particular score
Once saved, you will be able to see the custom score on an applicable conversation type on the case's QA scoring tab in Quality review.
Quality reporting
Once evaluations are completed, you can view performance data in the AI agent QA scorecard report (formerly the Quality report).
Note: The Quality report is currently available for Copilot only, with reporting for Email, Voice, and Chat agents coming soon.

- Drafted replies: Includes performance data for all Co-pilot interaction types
- Agent guidance: Focuses on ‘Question answer’ and ‘Summarize’ interaction types
- Use the date range, Types and Add filter filters to view data by interaction type, date, or source
Report metrics
The Quality report includes metrics based on two inputs:
- Evaluations completed by your QA team
- Agent feedback submitted via the thumbs-up (helpful) and thumbs-down (not helpful) buttons in the Copilot interface
Tips for effective quality reporting
The Quality report only shows data for cases that have been evaluated by your QA team or received agent feedback. To obtain meaningful insights:
- Have your QA team regularly evaluate interactions in the QA review page
- Encourage agents to provide feedback directly in the Cal interface
- Ensure evaluations cover all relevant Copilot support types
- Maintain consistent evaluation criteria
