How Level AI Compares To Cresta

Auto QA
Near-human accuracy auto-scoring of your organization’s entire scorecards

Level AI implements first-of-its-kind proprietary QA-GPT, intent technology to assess each conversation against your custom scorecard, achieving near-human accuracy. Moreover, the intent modeling plus GPT-based models tag key behaviors in the conversation.


Basic QA Experience

Cresta provides the most basic QA experience that misses essential features like auto-scoring and auto-tagging crucial conversation moments. This results in QA auditors overseeing critical conversation moments. Moreover, Managers have to manually attach snippets to back their manual scores to the conversation.

QA & Conversation Intelligence Setup and Accuracy
Data You Can Trust & Setup in Minutes

Level AI’s unique semantic intent engine is capable of accurately tagging hundreds of variations in which intent can be phrased. The setup of the CI and QA system takes minutes vs. days/weeks.

Keyword, Phrase-Based Matching Approach

Cresta deploys a keywords-based AI logic creator where users have to manually define triggers in a conversation. This approach is very manual in nature and tends to give false positives.

Complete Quality Management System (QMS)
AutoQA + Deep QMS Capabilities
  • QA Case Assignment, to audit cases based on criteria and setup automation
  • Calibration capabilities to grade the grader
  • Specialized QA reporting
Limited QMS System
  • Calibration not offered
  • QA Case Assignment not offered (automated sampling methodology)
  • Real-time coaching but no specialized posthoc coaching suite
Agent Coaching and performance
AI-drive coaching dashboard with agent-specific personalization

Contact center quality coaches can analyze agent performance, identify gaps, set up action plans, select customer conversations for review and coaching, schedule coaching sessions, track progress, and more — all from one place.

Incomplete coaching module

Cresta’s coaching module lacks key features such as periodic sessions, custom action items, continuity, and tracking agent victories, limiting quality coaching opportunities.

Agent Screen Recording
Add eyes to your QA analysis

Level AI allows QA managers and auditors to review on-screen activities performed by agents during the conversation. Auditors can record multiple screens and wrap up time post-conversation. Using Computer Vision, we also offer dynamic PCI/PII redaction.

Limited capabilities

Cresta’s limited screen recording capability hinders their ability to differentiate their best agent from the rest of the team. We understand that they might offer a solution, which will require extensive setup configuration to stitch audio and video, and may not support non-voice channels.

Voice of Customer (VoC)
Unique Generative AI-Driven VoC Solution

Leverage Generative AI to mine 100% of interactions to deliver a deep view of the customer experience, and wants without any setup required. It also unveils proactive real-time hidden trends and emerging themes, getting to the root cause of issues to drive CX and business transformation.

Superficial Customer Insights

VoC is a unique capability of Level AI. Cresta does offer more generic service intelligence but is not focused on product, sales, operations linked customer insights.
