Filters
You can use filters to evaluate Performance Insights data by date range and communication channels selection.Date Range
Filter performance insights data for a selected time period: Last 7 Days (default), Last 28 Days, Last 30 Days, Last 90 Days, or a custom date and time range. Select Apply after choosing a date range.Channel and Contact Direction
The channel filter enables you to analyze performance across all channels or a specific channel with direction-based views.| Option | Description |

Agent Efficacy
Agent Efficacy widgets summarize key communication quality metrics for agents during the selected time period and highlight performance trends compared to the previous period.Empathy Score
Measures how effectively agents respond to customer emotions.How it works
The system identifies empathy-seeking customer utterances, evaluates whether agent responses demonstrate empathy, and calculates a score based on appropriate responses.Widget displays
Displays the average empathy score for the selected period with a percentage change vs. the previous period. Upward arrow indicates improvement; downward arrow indicates decline, enabling quick trend tracking.Crutch Word Score
Measures how often agents use filler or crutch words during conversations. Example of Common Crutch Words:um, uh, like, you know, so, basically
Why it matters
Crutch word usage can reduce perceived professionalism, indicate uncertainty, slow conversation flow, and distract from the agent’s message.Widget displays
Displays the average crutch word usage score for the selected period, along with a percentage change compared to the previous period. An upward arrow indicates increased usage, while a downward arrow indicates reduced usage. Lower scores reflect clearer, more confident, and more professional communication.
Agent Performance Monitor
The Agent Performance Monitor helps supervisors analyze metric relationships, trends, and coaching opportunities.Metrics Displayed
Empathy Score measures emotional responsiveness, Crutch Word Score tracks communication quality, and Kore Evaluation Score represents overall evaluation results.Customer Experience (X-Axis)
CSAT Score reflects customer satisfaction ratings, while Sentiment Score shows customer sentiment trends during interactions. The data is visualized as a time-series graph, with the selected date range on the X-axis and score values for each metric on the Y-axis. To use the Agent Performance Monitor,- Select one or more Y-axis metrics using the checkboxes below the chart (Empathy Score, Crutch Word Score, Kore Evaluation Score, Sentiment).
- Enable or disable individual metrics to focus the analysis and compare multiple performance indicators on the same timeline.
- Use the compare function to track changes over time and benchmark agents.
- Analyze correlations between agent behavior and customer outcomes.
- Identify coaching opportunities based on trends and quadrant positioning.
