Company profile

researched Sep 2026

Spiky.ai develops an AI-powered conversation intelligence and analytics platform for customer-facing and revenue teams. The product integrates with video conferencing tools and calendars to automatically capture calls, meetings and emails, producing transcripts, summaries and structured analytics. Beyond transcription, the system evaluates language use, tone of voice, context and non-verbal cues, and surfaces sentiment, objections and buyer intent so that individuals and teams can review communication dynamics and performance.

The platform is organized around three layers the company calls Pulse (conversation capture using more than 20 AI models), Signals (extraction and structuring of behavioral signals across calls, email, Slack and CRM data) and Whisper (real-time in-meeting guidance). Spiky reconstructs multi-step "plays" or "Pathways" associated with outcomes such as win rate, pricing power, rep ramp time, deal slippage, deal size and net revenue retention, and allows those sequences to be deployed as live coaching prompts. A real-time analysis board displays talking speed, talk time, tone, call momentum, active playbook prompts and suggested objection responses, with CRM synchronization. Earlier positioning also covered engagement in educational settings and online meetings, including engagement metrics and simultaneous transcription.

The company states SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certification and GDPR compliance, and advertises integrations with more than 300 platforms including Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Gmail, Outreach and Salesloft.
