Intelligent Call Routing & Intent-Driven Self-Service

In a world where time is of the essence, ensuring your customers reach the right destination without delay is paramount. Intelligent Call Routing harnesses the power of AI to streamline the customer journey from the moment they connect.

Personalized Welcome Greetings: Make every customer feel valued right from the start. Our AI-driven system crafts personalized greetings based on caller information and history, setting a positive tone for each interaction.

Accurate Intent Capture: Understanding is the first step to resolution. Our virtual agents employ advanced natural language processing designed with proprietary intent capture processes to accurately process the caller’s needs, ensuring clarity and direction from the outset.

Effortless Call Routing: Say goodbye to complex menus and unnecessary transfers. Based on captured intent, callers can quickly resolve their problems using self-service or are seamlessly routed to the appropriate department or agent, significantly reducing wait times and improving first-call resolution rates.

What is the Customer Experience Like with a Virtual Agent?

Scenario 1: Greet & Route

Tammy is headed to a family reunion this summer in wine country. As the self-appointed trip organizer, she puts herself in charge of room reservations and transportation to and from the airport. Her first call is to Hotel Solerno to book nine rooms for her family. An AI-powered virtual agent makes it less hard for her to reach a live agent and book her group reservation.
Scenario 2: Greet & Transfer – Intent Capture Failure

Barney bought a shirt online for the first time a few weeks ago. He’s regretting it now because the shirt doesn’t fit and he needs to return it. He’s not a tech-savvy guy and generally is not comfortable talking to automated systems when he calls customer service. Watch the video to see how the virtual agent gracefully handles Barney’s difficulty interacting with the system.
Scenario 3: Account Authentication

When Leslie calls into the Shoe Emporium, the virtual agent is able to match her caller ID to her account. This streamlines the authentication process since only zip code is needed to complete authentication. Since the virtual agent can send emails and/or texts, she is able to self-serve password reset.

Which Challenges Do Virtual Agents Help You Address?

Effortless & personalized greetings
Eliminate frustrating touchtone or directed dialog IVR menus
