A copilot for sales calls
Turning tens of thousands of daily calls into a knowledge base, and serving it back to agents in real time.
ML research internship, AI Lab, Selectra, Madrid, June–September 2026.
- calls per weekday feeding the knowledge base
- 20–30k
- accuracy, general model → fine-tuned French encoder
- 23 → 61%
- response time on the agent’s computer, vs 10 s before
- 50–150 ms
How it works
Each day an LLM classifies the previous day's transcripts (reason for the call, offers, outcome) and they are organised into decision trees of sales conversations; a CamemBERT-based French encoder, retrained weekly, places a live conversation in the tree and shows the matching product sheet.
Architecture only: the data belongs to the company.
Technical details
Knowledge base
Every day the previous day's calls are analysed: an external LLM classifies each one with predefined rules (reason for the call, offers mentioned, accepted or refused, and when). The calls are then organised by context and call type into detailed decision trees, where each node is what the agent did and each branch the customer's answer, so that the paths that lead to a sale can be measured.
- Daily classification
- $1.3 per 1,000 calls, ≈ 90% precision and recall on the main categories
- Knowledge base
- $10.70 per 1,000 calls
Live model
The first version called a general model on every request: it reloaded each time, took ten seconds and found the right situation only 23% of the time. I replaced it with a light open-weight French model based on CamemBERT, trained on the calls already classified in the knowledge base. It places the conversation in the decision tree, shows the matching product sheet and suggests the next step, on the agent's own computer. It is retrained every week on new calls.
