Add a Chatbot to your Team

When the majority of visitor questions are repetitive and easy to answer, automating your solution makes perfect sense. A chatbot acts like another member of your team, taking chats and answering the visitor quickly and easily 24/7, answering, advising and signposting where required.

When only a human response will do, your bot will hand off to the appropriate available agent, transferring the chat just like a human colleague, with a full transcript of the conversation visible. Your bot can even be used to triage enquiries, performing more complex routing by asking preliminary questions to establish the correct team.

Save time and money, reduce resources and improve customer satisfaction with a chatbot today.
