What Are Reports in Kickscale?

Reports help you answer specific questions using data from your customer conversations.

You can use them to uncover insights such as:

  • Which objections appear within a certain customer segment

  • Which feature requests your largest customers ask for

  • Which problems are mentioned most often

  • Coaching themes for individual team members


Creating a Report: Template or Custom

You can create reports in two ways:

Use a Template

Examples include:

  • Competitor Report

  • Objections Report

  • Customer Problems Report

Create a Custom Report

  • Give your report a clear name

  • Set meeting and deal filters

  • Add a specific question, e.g., “What questions arise in our onboarding meetings?”


Quick Start: Your First Report in 5 Steps

  1. Open Insights
    Go to Insights in the menu.
    Open the Reports tab and click Create.

  2. Start with a question or choose a template
    Enter a question such as “What are the most common objections?”
    Or select a fitting template.

  3. Define the Meetings to analyze
    Set filters such as date, team member, meeting type, tags, or keywords.

  4. Analysis
    Kickscale analyzes the selected Meetings.
    This may take a moment.

  5. View your results
    You’ll receive clear summaries and categories with actionable insights.


Advanced Filters

When clicking on customize in the Creation Dialog you will get more in depth options to filter the conversations that will flow into the analysis.

Meeting Filters

  • Keywords or competitor mentions

Deal Filters

Understanding Your Results: Summary & Categories

After the analysis, you will see two tabs.

1. Categories

  • Each category appears as a card with key insights

  • A progress indicator shows the percentage of Meetings mentioning this category

  • Meeting count relative to all analyzed Meetings

  • Expand each card to view and open related Meetings

2. Details

  • Short overview of the main findings

  • Table with the most frequent categories and their occurrences

  • Conversation examples for context

  • Optional recommendations based on the results
