Conversational AI is a set of technologies that automates communications using text- or speech-based virtual assistants to create personalized customer and employee experiences at scale.
“Conversational AI is high on the automation agenda for many of our clients,” said Chip Wagner, CEO of ISG Automation. “While companies continue to embrace robotic process automation to make their back-office processes more efficient, seamless and integrated, the more visible benefits of automation are often seen through conversational AI as well as other elements of the intelligent automation product continuum. We see great potential in linking the two to deliver fast and frictionless customer experiences at lower cost and with greater efficiency.”

“Many enterprises, especially during the pandemic, have discovered the power of conversational AI to lower costs and improve user experiences,” said Philipp Heltewig, CEO and co-founder of Cognigy. “Companies that invested in intelligent automation systems early on are now integrating them with conversational AI platforms. This solves an all-too-common challenge of bridging the gap between corporate systems and customer interactions.”
The Cognigy.AI platform gives end users the power to develop, deploy and maintain conversational AI automations across a variety of channels, including messaging apps, speech-based virtual assistants and chatbots.
