Voice bot AI is becoming more and more omnipresent in our day-to-day lives. We talk to virtual agents when calling our bank’s contact centre or getting a seasonal bonus offering from our favourite flower shop. More businesses opt for contact centre automation with conversational technologies. Some 56% of contact centres name AI and robotics among the top technologies they plan to use in the future.
To help businesses find their way around voice bots, we asked industry professionals the most popular questions and busted the most common myths about contact centre automation. In this whitepaper, you’ll learn when it is best to use voice bots, whether it is better to use a real voice AI bot or go with a speech synthesis, how to choose the right platform for call campaigns, which features make the bot’s speech natural, how to assess the bot’s effectiveness and whether the virtual assistants can replace call centre agents, and much more. Here are some of the questions we’ve answered for you.
What is a voice bot and why do businesses need them?
A voice bot is a smart virtual assistant that contact centres use for outbound and inbound calls. Among the main reasons why businesses employ AI-powered virtual agents are cost efficiency and the scalability of operations.
What to do before contact centre automation?
The first important thing is to determine the goals and objectives: whether it’s about saving resources and cutting costs, or growing the business. The next thing is to plan the audience coverage, as automation is worthwhile if it significantly reduces employees’ workload and saves resources. Finally, determining bot scenarios, based on which you’ll be reaching the customer base, is also essential.
How does one choose the right vendor for voice bot automation?
At the start, it’s important to consider companies that are ready to build a bot from scratch. As for the tools, it’s better to go with some one-stop-shop of the platform.
How to make a bot sound natural?
Many companies are moving away from the original speech synthesis model. They use hybrid synthesis or similar technology and synthesise variables from pre-recorded voices. Then it sounds as natural as possible.
Does a virtual AI agent need a personality?
Many companies (mainly larger ones) try to associate the bot’s name and voice with the company's brand. In this case, either the company's brand policies or the internal policies of the contact centre regulate the bot's personality. The company’s brand management defines how the AI agent should speak, what it should convey to the customer and other basic things.
