Why integrate Aircall with meinGPT?

Aircall was designed as a cloud-based phone system to boost productivity and deliver detailed analytics of all phone activity through a single intuitive interface. VoIP technology stores data securely in the cloud and enables the phone system to integrate with numerous external SaaS applications. As a leading app ecosystem for voice communication, Aircall can communicate with all your key tools and workflows.

Combining it with meinGPT workflows offers several decisive advantages:

Functional area	What Aircall offers	What meinGPT adds	Combined value
Call evaluation	Call recording, basic statistics	AI-powered content analysis, text recognition, sentiment analysis	Automatic capture of customer concerns, identification of sales opportunities and escalations without manual intervention

Thanks to seamless integration with Aircall, you can use its powerful APIs to deliver the best phone experience for your team and your customers. Aircall takes care of the telephony, so you can focus on integrating the phone into your workflows and improving your core business. You can track call data synchronously and asynchronously, monitor calls and route them to the right team members. With meinGPT workflows, you can extend these capabilities further by displaying and linking customer information from various systems during a call – directly within the phone system.

meinGPT is an AI platform built specifically for German and European businesses that is fully GDPR-compliant. Unlike many other AI solutions, all data is hosted on European servers, guaranteeing the highest data protection standards. This is particularly important when processing sensitive customer data from phone calls.

The platform stands out for its versatility – from text generation and meeting transcription to image and video generation. However, the heart of the Aircall integration is meinGPT Workflows, which enable recurring tasks to be automated and complex processes to be controlled through AI.

A particular advantage of meinGPT is the Data Vault, which allows proprietary company knowledge to be securely integrated into AI workflows. This means customer calls can be processed in the context of product information, company policies or specific customer data, leading to more precise and relevant results.

The meinGPT platform provides access to various AI models that can be selected depending on the use case. Models such as Claude 3.7 Sonnet or GPT-4o are particularly well suited for analysing phone calls and creating summaries, while Perplexity Online or Perplexity Deep Research can be used for research tasks.

Key use cases: Aircall and meinGPT in action

Combining Aircall and meinGPT opens up numerous practical use cases that can revolutionise customer service and sales. Here are the most important scenarios:

Automatic call follow-up and documentation

The challenge:
Support and sales staff spend a lot of time writing detailed notes after phone calls, updating information in the CRM and documenting next steps. Especially during busy periods, agents need to move quickly to the next customer in the queue, which often results in incomplete or inaccurate records.

The solution with Aircall + meinGPT:

1. A call is made or received in Aircall and automatically recorded

2. Once the call ends, the recording is passed to a meinGPT workflow via Make.com

3. The meinGPT workflow processes the audio recording with the appropriate AI model (e.g. Claude 3.7 Sonnet) and:

- Transcribes the conversation

- Creates a structured summary

- Identifies customer concerns and sentiment

- Extracts tasks and next steps

- Formulates recommendations for follow-up actions

4. The results are automatically sent back to Aircall and the connected CRM system

The main benefit:
Agents receive precise, detailed notes without manual effort. Complete and structured documentation leads to greater empathy, more meaningful call routing and faster resolutions. Since even experienced staff have human memory gaps, AI-based documentation minimises omissions and inaccuracies.

Intelligent call prioritisation and routing

The challenge:
Traditional call routing and prioritisation is often based on simple rules such as queues or IVR menus. However, this doesn't take into account the specific skills of agents or the urgency of particular customer concerns.

The solution with Aircall + meinGPT:

1. Incoming calls are received in Aircall and the first few seconds of the conversation are analysed

2. A meinGPT workflow is triggered in real time and processes:

- The customer's history from the CRM

- The customer's initial statements

- Available agents and their skills

3. The workflow uses the meinGPT Data Vault to access company-specific routing rules

4. The AI determines the optimal routing based on:

- Identified concern and priority

- Specialist knowledge of available agents

- Previous customer history

5. The call is routed to the most suitable agent via the Aircall API

The main benefit:
Unlike rigid rules, AI-powered call routing enables genuine 24/7 customer support with intelligent prioritisation. Response times are reduced, and complex enquiries are routed directly to staff with the right expertise.

Real-time support for agents during customer calls

The challenge:
During a customer call, agents often have to handle complex situations or answer technical questions that exceed their knowledge. Traditional call whispering allows managers to advise agents, but requires their constant availability.

The solution with Aircall + meinGPT:

1. Communication is analysed in real time during an ongoing call

2. A meinGPT workflow with access to the Data Vault processes the conversation and:

- Identifies complex questions or unclear situations

- Searches company knowledge for relevant information

- Formulates precise suggested responses

3. This information is displayed directly in the agent interface via the Aircall Insight Card API

4. The agent can use the suggested responses or adapt them

The main benefit:
Agents are supported by an "AI assistant" that delivers relevant information in real time. This increases the first-call resolution rate, reduces after-call work and ensures consistent, high-quality responses based on the company's entire knowledge base.

Automated post-call actions and follow-ups

The challenge:
After a customer call, agents have to complete numerous administrative tasks, such as recording notes, tagging, sending follow-up emails or assigning the contact to a better-suited colleague. This is time that's then unavailable for further customer calls.

The solution with Aircall + meinGPT:

1. A meinGPT workflow starts automatically once a call ends

2. The workflow analyses the conversation and determines the necessary follow-up actions

3. Based on the analysis, the following are generated automatically:

- Personalised follow-up emails are created and sent

- Tickets in helpdesk systems are created or updated

- Tasks for other teams are created

- Feedback surveys are sent to customers

4. Reminders for manual follow-ups are created where needed

The main benefit:
Automating post-call processes protects businesses from call volume fluctuations, speeds up service processes and reduces human error. Agents can focus on value-adding activities while routine tasks are handled automatically.

Use case	Complexity level	Setup time	Maintenance effort	Ideal for
Automatic call follow-up	Simple	Short	Minimal	Customer service teams, sales, call centres
Intelligent call prioritisation	Medium	Medium	Occasional adjustments	Support teams with high call volume
Real-time agent support	Complex	Intensive	Regular knowledge base updates	Technical support, complex products
Automated post-call actions	Medium	Medium	Minimal adjustments	Sales teams, customer relationship management
