# Ask QM

Ask QM is an AI-powered assistant embedded within Zoom Quality Management. It enables supervisors and analysts to use natural language queries to analyze call quality trends, uncover root causes, and trigger remediation workflows without navigating multiple dashboards.

Ask QM helps answer questions like:

* "What are some areas the agent can improve on this call?"
* "Did the agent show empathy to the customer?"
* "Was \[TOPIC] discussed on this call?"

Ask QM has several key features discussed in the following sections.

## Natural Language Querying

Ask open-ended questions about call trends, user issues, or network anomalies. For example:

*"Why did call quality drop last week?"*

Ask QM returns responses with data including:

* Week-over-week quality score changes
* Root-cause summaries (VPN use, packet loss, and more)
* Visual breakdown of impacted regions

## Contextual follow-up

Ask QM understands session context, allowing follow-up questions. For example:

*"Which users were most affected?"*

Ask QM returns responses with data, including:

* A ranked list of impacted users
* Links to individual sessions for further review

## Workflow automation

Trigger actions like ticket creation or tagging affected calls. For example:

*"Create a ticket for this problem."*

This prompt will create a support request with diagnostic attachments.

## How it looks

* Suggestion chips and auto-complete
