AI-Powered Automation: how 2clix's monitoring boosted HCosta's KPIs

1.1 Case Summary

Case Summary

This case presents the results achieved in the performance of quality monitoring processes at HCosta's operations. The company, a BPO specialist representing some of Brazil's largest banks in collections, adopted the 2clix solution — a technology platform focused on quality management and auditing. With the goal of transforming its quality management and boosting operational performance, HCosta turned to 2clix to automate its monitoring process, which until then was done manually, with low coverage and limited reach.

In just 12 months, the AI-based solution enabled 100% automation of evaluation volume, a 29% reduction in quality resource costs, a 51% decrease in average evaluation and feedback time, plus a 17% improvement in quality performance.

The integration between quality analysis and performance indicators consolidated a new data-driven management culture, accelerating team maturity and promoting smarter decision-making.

Diagnosis

HCosta's operating model and challenges in its sector

HCosta excels at relationship management, specializing in multichannel collection operations involving high volumes of service across different delinquency ranges. With a structured operating model, the company organizes its activities into portfolios segmented by client and delinquency profile.

Within this ecosystem, the Quality team plays a key role in sustaining results, responsible for monitoring, evaluating, and developing operator performance. However, the limitations of manual sample-based analysis made the process slow and less efficient given the growing volume of interactions and the need for faster training of new operators.

With recent economic impacts and growing demand for faster, more scalable results, investing in technology solutions that could ensure standardization, agility, and precision in quality evaluation became strategic.

Diagnosis

Problems identified in the pre-implementation operation

Before implementing the 2clix solution, HCosta faced critical challenges in managing the quality of its service operations due to manual processes, which resulted in several bottlenecks:

  • Manual Evaluation

    Manual monitoring covered only a portion of evaluations, resulting in a limited view of performance. Analysis was unrepresentative, making it hard to identify patterns and critical areas.

  • Slow, Inefficient Feedback

    Feedback turnaround time was high — an average of approximately 11min20s — compromising failure correction and agile employee development.

  • High Workload for Analysts

    Each analyst handled both evaluation and feedback, creating overload. The volume, combined with the lack of automation, resulted in an analysis error rate above 25%.

Impact on KPIs

These problems directly affected the operation's KPIs. The pilot portfolio's average conversion rate was just 30%, and the operators' maturity curve was 30% below ideal.

Diagnosis

Critical analysis of performance gaps

The critical analysis revealed that the main performance gaps were linked to a lack of scalability and the absence of a data-driven approach to monitoring and feedback. Some of the main impact points were:

  • Scalability

    The operation needed a solution capable of handling much larger volumes of interactions, given the company's growth and customer demand.

  • Data-Driven Decision Making

    Without an automated tool, managers had only a partial view of operational performance, making real-time analysis difficult.

  • Operator Training and Maturity

    The low frequency and limited quality of feedback affected operator learning, delaying their maturity curve.

  • Operational Conversion

    The impact on conversion was evident, with a high AHT of 26 minutes per interaction, resulting in higher operational costs.

Diagnosis

Diagnostic methodology applied

The implementation of the 2clix solution at HCosta followed a structured methodology focused on optimizing quality monitoring, since the chosen portfolio involved guaranteed judicial recovery. The implementation phases were:

  • 1 · Awareness of AI's Role

    Presenting 2clix's objectives and how AI can be an ally for quality and performance. Machine learning concepts for Speech Analytics.

  • 2 · Standardizing Call Analysis

    Aligning technical and behavioral criteria. A checklist based on the critical indicators of the guaranteed judicial portfolio.

  • 3 · Hands-On Training with Structured Feedback

    The quality team analyzed real calls from the pilot portfolio; their scoring trained the AI model through review and rework cycles.

  • 4 · Validating AI Performance

    The team compared AI scoring with human evaluations via cross-sampling, fine-tuning false positives/negatives.

  • 5 · Creating an AI-Assisted Monitoring Playbook

    Formalizing guidelines for the ongoing use of AI in the operation, including best practices, model limitations, and retraining triggers.

3.1 Strategic Objectives

The project's strategic objectives

The implementation of the 2clix solution at HCosta was guided by clear strategic objectives, focused on raising operational productivity, expanding AI-powered monitoring capacity, and boosting team performance:

  • 1 · Optimize Feedback

    Replace the manual sample-listening model with an automated voice and text analysis system, with broader, more precise, and impartial coverage.

  • 2 · Monitored Sampling Without Headcount Growth

    Previously, fewer than 50% of analysts met the monthly target. With AI, the goal is up to 100% coverage, without expanding the analyst team.

  • 3 · Growth for Quality Analysts

    By reducing manual operational workload, the analyst's role becomes more strategic. An estimated 60% of time will be redirected to coaching and manager support.

  • 4 · Reduce Average Evaluation and Feedback Time

    The full cycle, which previously took up to 00:11:20, will be reduced to under 00:07:00, thanks to automated reports and real-time dashboards.

  • 5 · Structured Data for Development Actions

    Automatic categorization and personalized scores will enable training paths based on real data, increasing training effectiveness by up to 40%.

  • 6 · Operator-Customer Profile Matching

    It will be possible to identify operators with greater affinity for certain customer profiles, boosting efficiency and conversion by up to 27%.

Solution

Solution implemented: automatic monitoring

To scale the Quality team's work, HCosta implemented the AI-Powered Automatic Monitoring solution, provided by 2clix. The solution automates the analysis of interactions quickly and in depth, generating strategic, actionable insights. As a result, analysts began focusing on what really matters: development and performance, leaving repetitive operational tasks behind.

Beyond automation, the tool was integrated with operational indicators, enabling real-time tracking of its direct impact on key KPIs such as conversion, average handling time, success rate, script adherence, and customer satisfaction (CSAT).

  • Scalability

    Ability to monitor 100% of evaluations with intelligence.

  • Analytical Precision

    Automatic identification of behavioral patterns and improvement opportunities.

  • Personalized Feedback

    Automated feedback tailored to each operator's profile.

The AI was configured to analyze voice and text interactions in bulk, extracting behavioral and technical data with a high degree of accuracy. This automation eliminated manual bottlenecks and doubled monthly listening capacity per operator.

  • Expanded automated sampling: 100% of volume monitored.
  • Targeted diagnosis: real-time identification of success and failure patterns.
  • Smart feedback: automated, personalized, actionable feedback focused on individual development.

The new model ensured greater agility, analytical depth, and precision in quality decision-making.

Solution

Integrated quality management flow

The solution was woven across operational flows, creating a continuous, integrated circuit between service, quality, and management. This flow enabled a data-driven continuous improvement journey, where every stage — from listening to correction — connects in real time.

  • Record-Time Feedback

    41% reduction in average analysis and feedback time.

  • Real-Time Dashboards

    Dynamic access to critical indicators and predictive alerts.

  • Smart Planning

    +28% increase in operational forecast accuracy.
