Scorecards
Structured agent evaluations — templates, sending, and review
What is a Scorecard?
A scorecard is a questionnaire sent to an agent (or completed by a manager) to evaluate a specific call. While quality checks are automated AI evaluations, scorecards capture human assessment — things like tone, empathy, and nuanced judgment that benefit from a human reviewer.
Key terms:
- Scorecard Template — A reusable set of questions with scoring weights
- Scorecard — An instance of a template, sent to an agent for a specific call
- Scorecard Response — The agent's completed answers

Creating a Scorecard Template
Templates define the questions and scoring structure. Create them at the campaign level.
Step-by-Step
-
Navigate to Scorecards in the sidebar, or go to your campaign's scorecard section.
-
Click Create Template.
-
Add questions to your template. Each question has:
- Question text — What you're asking (e.g., "Rate the agent's empathy during the call")
- Question type — How the answer is collected (see below)
- Scoring weight — How much this question contributes to the overall score
-
Click Save when your template is complete.
Question Types
| Type | How It Works | Scoring |
|---|---|---|
| Text | Free-text response | Not scored (qualitative) |
| Rating (1-5) | 5-star scale | Scored 1-5, weighted |
| Rating (1-10) | 10-point scale | Scored 1-10, weighted |
| Yes/No | Binary choice | Yes = full points, No = 0 |
| Multiple Choice | Select one from options | Predefined point values |
| Checkbox | Select multiple from options | Points per selection |
| NPS | Net Promoter Score (0-10) | Standard NPS scoring |
| Percentage | Slider from 0-100% | Scored proportionally |
Weighted Scoring
Each question has a weight that determines its contribution to the overall scorecard score:
- The weighted average is calculated across all scored questions.
- Text questions are excluded from scoring (they're for qualitative feedback).
- Higher weights mean more influence on the final score.
Example: A template with 3 questions weighted 40%, 35%, and 25%. If the agent scores 4/5, 3/5, and 5/5, the weighted average is: (4×0.4 + 3×0.35 + 5×0.25) / 5 = 0.77 = 77%.
Sending a Scorecard
You can send a scorecard from multiple places:
From the Call Detail Page
- Open a call and click Send Scorecard.
- Select a template from the dropdown.
- Click Send.
The scorecard is now pending, waiting for the agent to complete it.
From the Agent Detail Page
- Open an agent's profile.
- Click Send Scorecard and select the call and template.
From a Coaching Bundle
Scorecards can be included as part of a coaching bundle for a more structured development workflow.

Troubleshooting
Agent says they can't find their scorecard
Symptoms: Scorecard was sent but agent doesn't see it. Cause: Agent may not have platform access, or the scorecard isn't linked to their agent profile. Solution:
- Verify the agent has a user account linked to their agent profile.
- Check the scorecards page to confirm the scorecard status is "Pending."
- The agent should look in the "Pending Scorecards" section of their dashboard.
Scorecard scores seem wrong
Symptoms: The weighted average doesn't match manual calculation. Cause: Question weights may not add up as expected, or text questions are being mentally included. Solution:
- Review the template's question weights.
- Remember: text questions are not included in scoring.
- The weighted average is calculated only across scored question types.
FAQ
Can I edit a template after scorecards have been sent?
Editing a template affects only future scorecards. Scorecards already sent use the template version from when they were created.
Can agents see who sent the scorecard?
Yes. The agent can see the scorecard template name and the associated call. The sending manager's context is visible.
How many scorecards can I send to one agent?
There is no limit. However, be mindful of agent workload — too many simultaneous scorecards can reduce response quality.
Can I delete a pending scorecard?
Yes. You can cancel a pending scorecard before the agent completes it.
