# Voice Insights

Learn about Voice Insights, a tool that measures call quality analytics and provides aggregation tools for Twilio voice calls and conferences. You can use this guide to send voice notifications, automate self-service tasks, create inbound contact centers, create outbound contact centers, deploy AI agents, set up call tracking, configure PSTN connectivity, and create transcriptions for AI or ML.

See [Related reference documentation](#related-reference-documentation) to learn more about the reference page elements used in this guide.

## Voice Insights overview

Voice Insights provides call quality analytics and aggregation tools for investigating Twilio calls and conferences. Sensors in the Twilio Voice SDKs and on Twilio media gateways gather call metrics and events and send them to the Voice Insights platform for analysis and aggregation.

After aggregation, Twilio Console presents these [Call Insights](#call-insights) and [Conference Insights](#conference-insights) through reporting dashboards and detailed summaries that highlight aspects of call and conference behavior. To access Voice Insights in Twilio Console, go to **Monitor** > **Insights** > **[Voice](https://1console.twilio.com/go?to=/account/__account__/us1/insights/voice)**. You can also find it in the [legacy Console](https://www.twilio.com/console/voice/insights).

Voice Insights for Twilio Voice SDKs allows you to react to call quality events directly in your Twilio SDK code. For a reference of related Voice SDK events, please see **[Details: Voice Insights SDK Events](/docs/voice/voice-insights/api/call/details-sdk-call-quality-events)**.

> \[!NOTE]
>
> Voice Insights data is available for calls or conferences made within the last 30 days.

**[Voice Insights Advanced Features](/docs/voice/voice-insights/advanced-features)** provide you with valuable additional analytical capabilities to investigate call and conference quality issues by

* exploring time-series data of metrics and event streams in the Twilio Console,
* programmatically accessing, via the [Voice Insights REST API](/docs/voice/voice-insights/api) or [Voice Insights Event Streams](/docs/voice/voice-insights/event-streams),

  * call summaries, call metrics, call insights events and call annotations, or
  * conference summaries and conference participant summaries.

> \[!NOTE]
>
> Advanced Features are available at an additional cost to regular call charges. Please, see our [Voice Pricing pages for Voice Insights pay-as-you-go and committed pricing information](https://www.twilio.com/en-us/voice/pricing/us).

Voice Insights is available for all calls and conferences made using

* one of the Twilio Voice SDKs:

  * [**Voice JavaScript SDK**](/docs/voice/sdks/javascript) (v1.3+),
  * [**Voice iOS SDK**](/docs/voice/sdks/ios) (v3.0+), or
  * [**Voice Android SDK**](/docs/voice/sdks/android) (v3.0+),
* the [**Programmable Voice APIs**](/docs/voice/api), or
* [**Elastic SIP Trunking**](/docs/sip-trunking).

## Call Insights

Call Insights provides multiple ways to use call metadata which allow you to see call parameters, investigate call metrics and event timelines, and understand detected quality issues.
