# Build a call intelligence platform like Gong

Call records, transcripts, and coaching — with the heavy media processing kept where it belongs.

## In brief

- **Category:** Integration-heavy projects
- **Build from:** Modules, workflows, and the page editor
- **Extend with:** Your container when you outgrow the visual tools

## Data model

Build these as [modules and custom fields](../builder-guide/menus-user-types.html)  — no schema migration, no code required to add a field or a relationship:

- Call records
- Transcripts and speaker segments
- AI-generated summaries
- Coaching scorecards and comments
- Keyword flags
- Deal-risk indicators

## Pages

Compose these in the [page editor](../builder-guide/page-editor.html)  from data-bound blocks, or start from a template pack and customize from there:

- Call detail page with transcript and timeline
- Coaching scorecard view
- Deal-risk dashboard

## Automation: post-call processing

Model this as a [workflow](../builder-guide/workflows.html)  — each bullet is naturally one step, run automatically on the trigger:

1. A recorded call lands in the system
2. A container-hosted or connected service performs speech-to-text
3. The AI assistant summarizes the call and extracts action items
4. Keyword and risk flags are applied
5. Linked CRM records (the deal, the contact) update automatically

## Market and pricing

Read these as directional

Market sizes and competitor prices move constantly, and published figures vary widely by source and methodology. Treat the numbers below as order-of-magnitude orientation for deciding what to build — not as researched inputs for a pitch deck or a pricing page. Verify current figures before either.

| Segment | Revenue intelligence / conversation analytics |
| --- | --- |
| Market size (directional) | Roughly $2–5B and growing fast, with high per-seat prices because buyers tie it directly to revenue outcomes. |
| Who actually buys | Sales leadership at teams with 10+ reps |
| Where incumbents price | Conversation intelligence platforms commonly run $1,200–1,800/seat/year plus a platform fee. |
| Suggested entry pricing | **$80–150/seat/mo, or annual contracts with a platform fee** |

## Building in more value

Where the margin actually lives — the upgrades and add-ons worth designing in from the start rather than bolting on later:

- Annual per-seat contracts with a platform fee is the established shape — buyers don't blink at it
- Transcription minutes as a metered pass-through with margin
- AI coaching scorecards as the premium tier
- Deal-risk analytics for sales leadership (the executive-budget feature)
- CRM auto-update as an integration tier

## The BuildWithHQ angle

Recording, storage, and speech-to-text are specialized media infrastructure — the natural fit is a [container-hosted component](../builder-guide/container-and-postgres.html)  or a connected service, not something to rebuild in the visual layer. What the platform owns well: the records, the CRM linkage, the AI summarization, and the coaching workflow around the output.
