Do you know when you are talking to a bot?

More and more, when you ring an organisation, an AI agent is answering your call. You might think you could spot them, with their not-quite human cadence and tone, but these days it is much, much harder.

The lag has come down from 1 to 2 seconds, which feels mechanical to under half a second, which feels natural.

Not only that, 95% of callers don't realize they are talking to an AI agent - in some cases, people have even asked agents out on a date.

It uses your natural language, whichever language you speak.

They are being used widely, for restaurant reservations, hotel bookings, financial services and utility companies.

During the California wildfires, PG&E used PolyAI to handle 1 million emergency calls in 24 hours. Not only did it save 35,00 labour hours, it increased customer satisfaction by 22%.

For a financial services company it delivered a 27% call reduction resulting in faster routing, fewer abandons and a 14 point NPS increase.

At Quicken their containment rate has now quadrupled with 2,500 calls resolved daily and not a single customer complaint.

Not only that Gordon Ramsay is a fan. Yes, Gordon, who is known to be fussy about how things are done. When you are at the top of your game, your front of house really matters. Relationships are everything.
