Genesys Agent Assist

Monitor conversations between the customer and agent to surface contextually relevant knowledge and FAQs.

Many customers prefer to use self-service options. But when they need to speak to someone (via voice or chat), they expect that person to know all about their journey and how best to help them in real time.

Provide live transcripts of the voice conversation, and relevant real-time knowledge suggestions on the agent’s omnichannel desktop.

A positive customer experience relies on the ability of the company or provider to answer a customer’s request, provide excellent service, and deliver on the requested outcome. Contact centers are often the single point of contact for customers, and it is critical that agents properly and effectively handle these interactions. Agents must navigate knowledge and FAQs to find answers and resolve customer inquiries – which takes time that could be better spent on activities that improve customer service or sales outcome.

With Agent Assist, companies can rely on the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor and analyze the conversation and then deliver contextual, relevant information drawn from a knowledge base to provide relevant suggestions to the agent. The agent spends time assisting the customer based on the suggested results, rather than digging for information. To improve the knowledge base for future use, an agent may verify whether the suggestions that Genesys Agent Assist AI returns are relevant.

Genesys offers Agent Assist as a native AI capability fully integrated into Genesys Cloud CX. Genesys also enables customers to use Google CCAI transcription and knowledge services for voice-based Agent Assist as an alternative

During a call or digital interaction between a customer and an agent, to assist the agent, Genesys Cloud Agent Assist presents relevant, real-time suggestions to the agent in their desktop. Agent assist provides contextually relevant knowledge suggestions, such as answers to frequently asked questions to the agent in real time. The knowledge empowers the agent, provides the right information at the right time, and enables the agent to provide better support to a end-customer.

Business Logic

BL1: Review knowledge: The agent performs a high-level assessment to ensure the information returned from Agent Assist is appropriate and relevant to the current conversation.

BL2: Leverage knowledge: The agent communicates relevant information to the end-customer, or they use the information to perform the required “back-end” actions to resolve the customer issue.

BL3: Rate knowledge: Agent assist may provide an agent with multiple pieces of information during the interaction. Agents should rate the information using the thumbs up / thumbs down buttons to verify as relevant or irrelevant.

BL4: Resolve issue or continue conversation: If the end-customer issue is not adequately resolved, the agent continues the conversation with the end-customer to trigger Agent Assist to surface additional information. If Agent Assist is unable to provide appropriate information to resolve the end-customers issue, Agents should follow their corporate escalation policy to ensure that expectations are fulfilled.

Distribution Logic

Since the end-customer is already speaking with an agent in real time, any subsequent call steering is likely to be manually directed by the agent.
