The AI Routing solution identifies subtle and valuable patterns in human interactions, which facilitates better pairings between a customer and the optimal agent to drive better outcomes from resulting conversations. The product represents a significant step-change in the availability of AI-driven behavioral pairing technology for organisations of any size, rather than solely large enterprises, expanding the total addressable market by millions of agents.
“Avaya’s vision is to help organisations provide exceptional experiences for their customers and their employees through advanced AI and machine learning technologies natively integrated with Avaya IX Contact Center solutions,” said Jim Chirico, Avaya President and CEO. “Organisations that are using AI in their contact centres have seen greater efficiency in service delivery, including 53% greater agent productivity, 61% higher first contact resolution rates, and a 48% increase in the average revenue per customer contact. With Avaya AI Routing with Afiniti AiRo, AI in the contact centre goes mainstream to dramatically enhance customer experience, create a more engaged, customer-facing workforce and drive increased revenue.”
“Avaya AI Routing with Afiniti AiRo is poised to transform the contact center industry,” said Zia Chishti, Chairman and CEO of Afiniti. “For the first time, client data teams can take full control of Afiniti's award-winning AI using an interactive dashboard that allows clients to control what they want to focus on improving within their contact centers, and see in real-time the precisely measured lift our algorithm is generating. This new product massively expands the opportunity for businesses with smaller contact centers to better pair their customers and agents, opening up the market by millions of seats."
