Unlock the Power of a Cognitive Contact Center
Machine learning, artificial intelligence, natural language understanding, chatbots, neural networks, big data, internet of things; it’s all anyone is talking about any more. For good reason, intelligent automation has the potential to change everything, so we’ve been talking about it too!
There are three tenets to the Cognitive Contact Center: Interaction, Knowledge, Learning. Individually, they can improve caller outcomes, but together deliver an experience that rivals, and in some cases exceeds a human agent.
Interaction
The AI learns and understands caller intent, even if it doesn’t fit your pre-defined expectations. This means there’s less of a chance for the automation to repeat itself, and we don’t need exhaustive keywords and syntax to get started.
Knowledge
Through interaction, the AI understands the caller’s intent and rapidly provides the information the caller needs, or the knowledge your agent needs to help the caller. No more massive amounts of data for your agents to sift through.
Learning
Every interaction provides the opportunity to improve toward building a truly autonomous self-service. The AI engine learns from human interactions and continues to do so that it can handle most calls, always with the option of a human agent fall-back.
Mapping Your Cognitive Call Center Strategy
Five Building Blocks to Intelligent Autonomy
Contact center leaders know that autonomy is in their future. But mapping out a deployment strategy can be daunting. That’s okay because we’ve laid out an effective strategy that involves five core building blocks that build upon each other to create an exceptional customer experience.
Natural Speech
IBM Watson speech-to-text and text-to-speech sounds natural and replaces standard DTMF prompt-based call flows.
Cognitive Conversation
Next, we add natural language understanding (NLU) for a fluid conversation that guides the caller to the appropriate step in the call flow.
Cognitive Information
The next step is to support agents with the information they need to provide a quick resolution and potentially find upsell opportunities.
Virtual Agent
IBM Watson Cognitive solves the caller’s problem and provides the needed information directly to the caller with no agent interaction. This frees up agents to focus on more high-value or complicated customer issues.
Cognitive Interaction
Now, we’re fully autonomous. Customers use freeform speech to request information and the system responds based on the massive data collected from machine learning across thousands of interactions.
Companion Technologies
These fine solutions are often paired with the XCALLY hosted contact center for an excellent lingering satisfaction on your fiscal palate.
