Flexible Solution Supports Client's Choice of AI; Powers Virtual Customer Self-Service, Agent Assistance, and Exceptional CX
WOODBRIDGE, ON / ACCESSWIRE / March 7, 2024 / Upstream Works, an omnichannel contact center solutions company, today announced Omni AI Hub, featuring a suite of standardized AI capabilities for on-premise, cloud, and hybrid contact centers. The Omni AI Hub framework operationalizes AI to provide automated transcriptions, summarization, sentiment, intent, and escalations, which combine to improve both the agent and customer experience and increase efficiency.
The Omni AI Hub provides a flexible framework and approach that allows organizations to accelerate innovation of their existing contact center technology with AI and automation. It enables the practical use of contact center AI to increase productivity, without disrupting the agent desktop experience. The hub supports AI flexibility and provides virtual customer self-service, real-time AI-powered agent assistance, integration with AI-enabled knowledge and performance analytics and reports, to deliver personalized customer engagements and first-time resolutions, across channels and on-premise and cloud contact centers.
"Since the emergence of mainstream, commodity-based AI apps like Chat GPT, customer experience organizations have been very interested in finding a way to benefit from it, but because AI is complex to set up, most have yet to take advantage of it," said Rob McDougall, CEO of Upstream Works. "With Omni AI Hub, we have significantly simplified the implementation of an advanced feature set enabled by AI, while continuing to leverage a contact center's existing infrastructure, using the AI of your choice."
With platform and deployment flexibility and AI capabilities available out-of-the box or as tailored solutions, organizations can quickly advance the potential of contact center AI and further improve efficiency and enhance customer engagements.
