Overview

Sales teams spend hours reviewing call recordings and manually taking notes. SkyScribe automates this process, extracting key insights like BANT qualification, objections, competitive mentions, and next steps—so your team can focus on selling.

Common Challenges

Time-Consuming Review

Reps spend 30+ minutes reviewing each call instead of selling

Inconsistent Notes

Different reps capture different details, making coaching difficult

Missed Opportunities

Important objections or follow-ups get overlooked in long calls

Poor Handoffs

Account handoffs lose context without structured call summaries

How SkyScribe Helps

BANT Qualification

Automatically extract Budget, Authority, Need, and Timeline from discovery calls. What SkyScribe captures:
  • Budget discussions and pricing sensitivity
  • Decision-makers and approval process
  • Pain points and business needs
  • Purchase timeline and urgency
Example template output:
BUDGET
Mentioned $50K annual budget for sales tools. Currently spending $30K
on existing solution. Willing to invest more for better ROI.

AUTHORITY
Sarah (VP Sales) is the decision-maker. Needs buy-in from CFO for
deals over $40K. IT team involved for technical evaluation.

NEED
Struggling with manual data entry and lack of pipeline visibility.
Lost 2 deals last quarter due to slow follow-up.

TIMELINE
Looking to implement before Q4. Evaluating 3 vendors this month.
Decision expected by end of September.

Discovery Call Analysis

Extract key insights from sales discovery calls to improve follow-up and closing. What SkyScribe captures:
  • Current situation and challenges
  • Desired outcomes and success metrics
  • Objections and concerns
  • Competitive landscape
  • Next steps and commitments
Example template output:
CURRENT SITUATION
Using Salesforce but team adoption is low (40%). Reps complain about
complexity. Missing forecasting accuracy.

DESIRED OUTCOMES
- Increase rep adoption to 80%+
- Improve forecast accuracy to within 10%
- Reduce time spent on admin work by 50%

OBJECTIONS & CONCERNS
