How Modulate works

Velma's Ensemble Listening Model analyzes dozens of audio signals in every utterance beyond the transcript, including emotion, accent, music and deepfake cues. Detections are grouped into six categories: fraud (35+ behaviors), AI agent guardrails (25+), trust and safety (20+), customer retention (30+), agent welfare (25+), and compliance and risk (20+). Customer data is never used for model training, per the vendor.
