Chatbot technology continues to grow, with Gartner predicting 25% of customer service and support operations will use it by 2020, a sea change considering that number was just 2% in 2017.

Passage AI’s conversational AI platform boasts a 95% or higher accuracy in field tests. In addition, it allows Talkdesk customers the option to seamlessly integrate and deploy AI-based chatbot technology to over 20 different channels, including a website, mobile app, messaging platforms, voice assistants and IVRs, which helps better meet the needs of today’s customer.
