Jiminny

What is Jiminny?

Jiminny is a conversation intelligence and sales enablement platform founded in 2016 by Richard Stone. The tool was specifically designed to help B2B sales teams and sales managers record, transcribe, and analyze all interactions with potential clients (whether via phone calls, video meetings, or emails), using artificial intelligence to map sales success patterns and train salespeople at scale.

How it works

Jiminny connects to email systems, corporate calendars, and telephony systems (dialers). An intelligent virtual assistant silently joins Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet meetings. At the end of the calls, the audio is processed and transcribed automatically in over 30 languages. Jiminny's AI then steps in to analyze the dialogue structure: it calculates the salesperson's talk-to-listen ratio, detects how often the client asked questions, and automatically tracks competitor mentions or price objections.

Key features

• Automated Recording and Transcription: Integrated capture and high-accuracy textual transcription of voice and video calls.
• Conversation Metrics: Quantitative insights on speaking speed, interruption rates, and active listening time of sales reps.
• Keyword and Competitor Mapping: Alerts and reports on how frequently clients mention rival brands or pricing doubts.
• AI Meeting Notes: Automatic creation of structured short summaries and generation of post-meeting task lists.
• Coaching Playbooks: Creation of libraries containing the best call recordings of senior sales reps to serve as examples for training new hires.

Available integrations

Jiminny integrates natively with the main tools in the corporate sales ecosystem:

• Meeting Platforms: Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Cisco Webex.
• CRMs: Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, and Pipedrive.
• Phone Systems: Aircall, RingCentral, Twilio, Talkdesk, and Dialpad.

Who it is for

• Sales Managers and Directors who need to monitor their sales teams' performance and coach them without watching hours of full recordings.
• Account Executives (AEs) and SDRs who want to understand their own blind spots during phone negotiations.
• Sales Enablement teams looking to train new employees faster.

Real-world use cases

1. Sales Approach Correction: A sales manager configures Jiminny to alert him when a rep speaks more than 70% of the time during a discovery call. The manager uses the AI report to teach the rep to ask more open-ended questions.
2. Price Objection Sorting: Jiminny monitors 1,000 monthly sales calls and identifies that in 40% of them, clients complain that "the product price is high", helping the product marketing team reformulate the value proposition.
