Why it was needed
Calls that staff could not answer were sent to voicemail, leaving callers waiting and routine questions unanswered.
Answers customer questions while the caller is on the line, using approved business information. It can send a text during the call and creates a follow-up ticket when needed.
Calls that staff could not answer were sent to voicemail, leaving callers waiting and routine questions unanswered.
The live assistant now answers the business number, uses approved business information, carries out only actions the business authorizes, and speaks the result while the caller is still there. It can also send a text during the call. One deployment resolves about 60% of callers’ questions during the call; when it cannot complete the request, it creates a ticket with the available context for a person to follow up.
The caller must be able to speak naturally, interrupt, and hear the response without a long pause. The system uses the conversation so far, approved business information, and allowed actions throughout the call. It retains the transcript as a separate call record. Restricted callers are blocked, abandoned connections close immediately, and connection and service failures are handled within the call process.
In one deployment, the assistant answers about 60% of callers’ questions during the call.
