Suggest Edits

This document describes how to build and use the Symbl Conversation Intelligence extension with the Agora SDK for Android applications.

For the source code, see Symbl.ai Agora Android App | github.com.

Symbl.ai is an AI-powered Conversation Intelligence (CI) platform for developers to build and extend applications capable of understanding natural human conversations at scale.

Our comprehensive suite of products and APIs enable developers to easily build and deploy intelligent speech-to-text functionality, extract contextual insights, generate domain-specific insights and intelligence, and access advanced conversation analytics.

With Symbl, you can analyze every call & interaction in real time as well as asynchronously to automatically surface the most important interactions that will help you identify compliance gaps, coaching opportunities, and missed opportunities to drive growth and revenue.

  • Make your events accessible and inclusive: Enable live captioning in all your events along with facilitating translation and localization in different languages based on your geographical reach. Show the current topic of discussion and important questions asked for the audience to keep face with how the conversation flows.

  • Real-time coaching: You can take your existing contact centre experience to the next level by automatically providing real-time suggestions that a customer care agent can use during a call, enabling the agent to focus on the immediate engagement with the customer and resolve customer needs quickly thanks to task automation. This results in the ability to serve more customers with higher satisfaction during a shift.

  • Automated Call Summarization: After a call, Symbl.ai automates call disposition along with key follow-ups and questions, that shaves off a few seconds from the average call handling time and gives your agent time to focus on customer experience.

  • Enable effective search, catch-up and further content recommendations: Automatically index the event enabling the search by keywords, phrases, enable late attendees to catch up to the event by showing a historic transcript with topics and last questions asked. Based on the engagement of watched events, enable future content recommendations.

  • Real time compliance and automation: Easily monitor and score interactions by adding agent and customer specific analytics to your existing dashboards. Dive into deeper analysis and metadata on call statistics, agent productivity, and call quality, all of which lead to a better understanding of the priorities for the business. Also take actions based on intents, agent characteristics, answering machine detection and custom rules.

Symbl.ai analyzes the conversation data and enables you to:

  • Generate Conversation Intelligence, such as Sentiment Analysis, Action Items, Topics, Trackers, Summary, and more in your applications.

  • Generate Speech-to-text capabilities, such as Transcriptions, Speaker Separation, and Speaker Diarization.

  • Leverage multiple channels such as Video, Audio, Text, and Streaming.

To learn more about Symbl.ai see Conversation Intelligence.

Product Overview

This extension allows you to embed real-time conversation intelligence into your mobile application providing contextual analysis of conversation data along with speech recognition without any upfront data training requirements.

Extension Workflow

Before you use this extension, make sure you activate it in the Agora Marketplace. After successfully activating this extension, you can start sending audio data through your mobile application to Symbl.ai. As a result of your application configuration and the audio data provided, you will receive the analyzed results.

Features

This extension provides the following out-of-the-box conversational intelligence features:

  • Speech-to-text: Converts speech from a live audio stream into text for each speaker in the meeting. This feature is also known as transcription.
  • Action items: An action item is a specific outcome recognized in the conversation that requires one or more people in the conversation to act on it in the future.
  • Follow-ups: This is a category of Action Items with a connotation to follow up a request or a task, such as sending an email or making a phone call or booking an appointment or setting up a meeting.
  • Questions: Explicit question or request for information that comes up during the conversation, whether answered or not, is recognized as a question.
  • Topics: The most relevant topics of the discussion from the conversation that is generated based on the combination of the overall scope of the discussion.
  • Sentiment analysis: Sentiment analysis over each Topic that is being discussed in the conversation.
  • Trackers: Trackers (custom business intents) allow you to track the occurrence of certain keywords or phrases in a conversation so you can identify emerging trends and gauge the nature of interactions. You can use Managed trackers or create your own Custom trackers, process a conversation to return messages that contain the same or contextually relevant phrases.
  • Conversation analytics: Provides you with functions such as finding the speaker ratio, talk time, silence, pace, and overlap in a conversation.

Supported Platforms

Android API Level 29 or higher.

Integration Steps

This section describes the steps necessary to set up Symbl.ai Conversation Intelligence extension in your mobile application.

  1. Add the following information into your build.gradle module file:

    implementation 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:3.10.0'
implementation 'org.java-websocket:Java-WebSocket:1.5.1'
implementation 'ai.symbl:android.extension:0.0.2'

  2. Implement the interface io.agora.rtc2.IMediaExtensionObserver:

    public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements io.agora.rtc2.IMediaExtensionObserver {

  3. Add the following method to set all the necessary information to initialize the Symbl configuration. You can find description for the parameters used in the table below:

    private void setSymblPluginConfigs(JSONObject pluginParams) throws JSONException {
   try {
       // Symbl main extension config objects
       SymblPluginConfig symblParams = new SymblPluginConfig();

       // Set the Symbl API Configuration
       ApiConfig apiConfig = new ApiConfig();
       apiConfig.setAppId("<symbl_app_id>");
       apiConfig.setAppSecret("<symbl_app_secret>");
       apiConfig.setTokenApi("https://api.symbl.ai/oauth2/token:generate");
       apiConfig.setSymblPlatformUrl("api-agora-1.symbl.ai");
       symblParams.setApiConfig(apiConfig);

       // Set the Symbl Confidence Level and Language Code
       RealtimeStartRequest realtimeFlowInitRequest = new RealtimeStartRequest();
       RealtimeAPIConfig realtimeAPIConfig = new RealtimeAPIConfig();
realtimeAPIConfig.setConfidenceThreshold(Double.parseDouble("<symbl_confidence_threshold>"));
realtimeAPIConfig.setLanguageCode("en-US");
   
       // Set the Speaker information
       Speaker speaker=new Speaker();
       speaker.setName("<symbl_meeting_user_Name>");
       speaker.setUserId("<symbl_meeting_UserId>");
       realtimeFlowInitRequest.setSpeaker(speaker);

       // Set the meeting encoding and speaker sample rate hertz
       SpeechRecognition speechRecognition = new SpeechRecognition();
       speechRecognition.setEncoding("<symbl_meeting_encoding>"));
speechRecognition.setSampleRateHertz(Double.parseDouble("<symbl_meeting_sampleRateHertz>"));
       realtimeAPIConfig.setSpeechRecognition(speechRecognition);

       // Set the redaction content values
       Redaction redaction = new Redaction();
       redaction.setIdentifyContent(true);
       redaction.setRedactContent(true);
       redaction.setRedactionString("*****");
       realtimeAPIConfig.setRedaction(redaction);

       // Set the Tracker (custom business intent) information
       realtimeFlowInitRequest.setConfig(realtimeAPIConfig);
       Tracker tracker1 = new Tracker();
       tracker1.setName("Budget");
       List<String> vocabulary = new ArrayList<>();
       vocabulary.add("budget");
       vocabulary.add("budget decision");
       tracker1.setVocabulary(vocabulary);
       List<Tracker> trackerList = new ArrayList<>();
       trackerList.add(tracker1);

       // Set the Symbl conversation parameters
       realtimeFlowInitRequest.setTrackers(trackerList);
       realtimeFlowInitRequest.setType("start_request");
       realtimeFlowInitRequest.setId("<symbl_unique_meetingId>");
       realtimeFlowInitRequest.setSentiments(true);
       realtimeFlowInitRequest.setInsightTypes(Arrays.asList("action_item", "question", "follow_up"));
       symblParams.setRealtimeStartRequest(realtimeFlowInitRequest);
       Gson gson = new Gson();
       pluginParams.put("inputRequest", gson.toJson(symblParams));
   } catch (Exception ex) {
       Log.e(TAG, "ERROR while setting Symbl extension configuration");
   }
}

The following table lists the parameters used in the preceding sample code:

ParameterDescription
symbl_meeting_UserIdUsed to identify the user in the real-time meeting.
symbl_meeting_user_NameThe name of the user attending the real-time meeting.
symbl_unique_meetingIdUnique identifier for the meeting.
