Why record and transcribe
Every call becomes something your team can read, search and act on
A phone call usually leaves nothing behind except a few notes. With recording and transcripts in MonoChat, the next agent sees what was said, managers can review quality, and workflows can act on the outcome.
- Transcripts and summaries stored with the conversation
- Callers’ earlier chats and calls in one customer history
- Search across calls instead of listening back
- Follow-up messages on WhatsApp or SMS after the call

Recording and privacy
Record calls responsibly
Call recording laws differ by country and region. This checklist is a starting point, not legal advice.
- Tell callers that the call is recorded, for example in the greeting at the start of the call flow
- Check the consent rules where you and your callers are: some places allow one-party consent, others require everyone on the call to agree
- Under GDPR and similar laws, have a legal basis for recording and tell people how long you keep recordings
- Limit who can play recordings and read transcripts with role-based access, and keep audit logs
- Use redaction and PII-safe workflows for card numbers, health details and other sensitive data
- Recording notice
- Consent
- Role-based access
- Redaction

FAQ
Call recording and transcription FAQ
How recording works over SIP, what summaries contain and how to stay compliant.
Can MonoChat record calls made over SIP?
Yes. Once your SIP trunk is connected, MonoChat can record inbound and outbound calls according to the recording policy you set. Recordings, transcripts and summaries are stored with the conversation, next to the customer’s chats.
How does call transcription work?
MonoChat converts the call audio to text with speech-to-text and stores the transcript with the conversation. Your team can then search it, quote it, review it for quality and use it in analytics instead of listening to the recording again.
What does an AI call summary include?
A short summary of why the customer called, what was agreed and the next step, along with signals such as sentiment. It appears on the conversation so the next agent, or a workflow, can continue from there.
Is it legal to record customer phone calls?
It depends on where you and your callers are. Some places allow recording when one party consents, others require everyone on the call to agree, and laws like GDPR require a legal basis and clear information. Telling callers at the start of the call is the common baseline. Check with your legal advisor for your markets.
Can sensitive data be kept out of transcripts?
MonoChat supports PII-safe workflows and optional redaction, together with role-based permissions and audit logs. How sensitive data is handled depends on your configuration and policies.
Can a call trigger follow-up actions?
Yes. With workflow automation and AI functions, the outcome of a call can create a CRM lead, open a support ticket, book an appointment or send a follow-up message on WhatsApp or SMS.
