Every agent can be your best agent

Your service agents are your most valuable contact center resource. Unfortunately, human agents spend much of their time searching through multiple systems to find answers, bloating response time and frustrating customers. AI can automate the repetitive requests that eat up valuable time and help agents feel empowered to solve more complex customer problems.

watsonx Assistant for agent assist harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to bring your agents the relevant insights and information to respond to customer inquiries faster and improve the agent experience. Seamless integration across engagement channels and back-end systems automates responses via web or mobile chat, and can draw from your database or CRM—and even learn from past interactions by your best agents. The agent assistant bot can monitor all calls and suggest information or next steps before your agent asks.

Best-in-class natural language understanding (NLU) and natural language processing (NLP) help recognize the intent, entities, and sentiment of your agents and customers in real time.
