Cognigy , a global leader in Conversational AI, today announced the release of Cognigy Voice Gateway (VG), an artificial intelligence voice solution, which deploys virtual agents (naturally-conversing voice bots) for automated inbound and outbound voice calls, whether via phone, web or mobile. Cognigy VG is designed to empower enterprises to automate high volume customer support requests and deliver high-quality, personalized experiences at scale on any channel and in any language.
In 2020, customer service teams in every industry have faced unprecedented issues that have led to staff cuts, workload distribution problems and more. Call centers have struggled with low satisfaction rates for years, due to long IVR menus, extended wait times, poor NLUs to solve customer problems, narrow channel options, and an overall lag in technological advancement.
Cognigy VG is a comprehensive solution that addresses these gaps. An enterprise-ready, AI-based Conversational IVR solution, it can deploy virtual voice agents, co-exist with existing technology, and enhance the work of human agents. With its advanced multi-tasking capabilities, Cognigy VG can handle thousands of parallel AI-phone calls with live audio streams in near-real-time. To ensure 24x7 operation along with integrity, redundant configurations with underlying voice gateway instances are available.
“Voice-based AI is the future of Customer Service and CX,” said Philipp Heltewig, CEO and co-founder of Cognigy. “Customer service teams have been overwhelmed throughout the pandemic, and we are leading the automation of conversations to make life easier for everyone. Cognigy Voice Gateway is now helping our global customers respond to pressures by scaling to demand, reducing call resolution times, and overcoming other major challenges, which is driving up satisfaction on many fronts.”
