Case studies
  • Amtrak
    Julie, Amtrak’s automated customer service representative, gets callers “on board.” With speech, Amtrak could provide both a great self-service experience and reduce calls to agents, enabling them to spend more time assisting callers with complex questions.
  • Southwest Airlines
    Southwest Airlines knows that customer communication and trust go hand in hand – and that proactively communicating critical information to affected customers takes more than agents making outbound calls. When flights are cancelled, customers appreciate knowing right away and having the option to make other arrangements.
