Named Entity Recognition

Definition

Named Entity Recognition (NER) is the extraction of specific data points from speech, such as names, dates, phone numbers, and amounts, so the agent can capture and act on structured information.

Why it matters

NER enables agents to collect lead details and booking information accurately during a conversation.
