Customer Service Chatbot FAQ

A chatbot is a computer program that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP) to simulate human conversation. Chatbot solutions can be deployed across channels to help service teams scale by enabling customers to find answers to common issues faster and automating routine tasks.

AI chatbot solutions enhance customer service by providing instant 24/7 customer support and faster resolutions for high-volume, low-complexity cases. For issues that require a human touch, chatbots can also collect information upfront and give agents the context they need to solve issues faster.

Start by analysing the issues that your agents are addressing to identify common issues the bot can resolve. Then implement NLP and machine learning algorithms. Next, train and test your chatbot using real or simulated data. Finally, integrate the chatbot with your customer service channels.

AI chatbots can be built to meet a range of needs in both business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) environments. Organisations of any size and industry can benefit from live chat software from e-commerce, financial services, travel & hospitality, software & cloud services, healthcare, telecommunications, and media.

Consider choosing a chatbot solution that's connected to your customer data, knowledge bases, and business processes built in your CRM. With access to the right customer data and workflows, chatbots can deliver personalised interactions and enable more efficient customer service.
