Before Zefi: Manual busy work and biases

  2. Bias in Tagging:

    Manual insertion of tags led to potential bias and inaccuracies.

  3. Inconsistent Historical Analysis:

    Only the most recent interaction was considered, overlooking the entire history of user interactions.

Solution: Centralized feedback repository and automatic tagging

To streamline Smartpricing's data analysis processes, Zefi.ai was seamlessly integrated.Key steps and integrations included:

  1. Integration with HubSpot:

    Zefi.ai was connected with Smartpricing's HubSpot CRM to analyze interactions from churned customers

  2. Data Aggregation:

    Over six months, Zefi.ai processed more than 60,000 interactions, including customer support tickets, sales call transcripts, and sales emails.

  3. Data Cleaning and Anonymization:

    The data was meticulously cleaned, anonymized, and aggregated per account, creating comprehensive summaries of interactions.

  4. Discovery and Tagging:

    Zefi.ai conducted a discovery phase to understand main topics and tagged each data point accordingly.
