Whether end users are reaching out over a website chat, messaging applications, or within a mobile application, Live Agent provides the direct connection to your contact center agents enabling them to deliver personalized interactions at critical moments by surfacing the conversation details, website browsing status, and interaction history instantly.
- Knowledge Assist: Knowledge Assist combines intelligent easy-to-use authoring tools with machine learning capability to deliver the most relevant answers and next best action for your agents. Reaching out across internal and external data sources and combining with consumer history, Knowledge Assist helps provide personalized responses to agent inquires.
