Conversational AI and Customer Empathy

Organizations that initiate an intelligent dialog with customers automate more than 90% of self-services because the human-like experience can confidently answer the interactions received. By designing a chatbot around your customers, it’s not just about connectivity; the actual value of that connectivity is reinforced by understanding your customer’s needs and feelings.

At IST, we understand that true customer empathy is a critical success factor. That said, the use of Natural Language Processing (NLP), combined with our advanced stemming conversational technologies, creates a conversational AI designed to be more accurate by the day and offer customers human-like conversations.

When Conversational AI is integrated into the Genesys Cloud platform, users can create scalable, personalized customer experiences without the need for manual logic building. The benefits of adding conversational AI goes beyond traditional customer experiences.

It empowers your business to leverage AI technology to analyze data which, in turn, allows you to make better-informed decisions. In addition, you can streamline operational processes and customer engagement — and consistently grow a profit stream for your organization.

Conversational User Interface Chatbot Builder

When choosing a chatbot solution for your contact center, the Chatbot Builder from IST is designed to ensure a human-like conversation with both conversational user interfaces and graphical user interfaces. It gives customers a drag-and-drop capability that lets users customize and build an entire enterprise-grade chatbot within a matter of minutes.
