Introduction

Comm100 Agent Assist is an AI-powered virtual assistant that helps your agents respond to customer queries on live chat, social media and SMS more quickly, more accurately, and more confidently than ever before. Agent Assist monitors inbound messages in real time and suggests the most relevant answers from your canned messages, AI chatbot intents, and knowledge base articles to your agents, who can pass them along as-is or modify them before replying.

Deliver Better Service

Agent Assist significantly reduces the time your agents will spend hunting for information. This means they will have more time to focus on the more complex or more sensitive customer inquiries. And since common interactions can be resolved in a few clicks, your agents will be able to handle more conversations, which means shorter queues and faster issue resolution for your customers.

Easy Setup and Maintenance

Agent Assist draws upon your existing help resources, so you can get up and running in minutes. Simply select which ones you want to use, and your agents will instantly start receiving answer suggestions. What’s more, Agent Assist gets smarter on its own by observing your agents’ chat behavior — whenever an agent uses a suggestion in response to a visitor question, Agent Assist notices and improves its suggestion confidence.

Your Agent’s New Best Friend

Many common service requests – order tracking, password resets, address updates, and more – require agents to gather a range of information before the request can be satisfied. With Agent Assist, agents can simply invoke a chatbot workflow to gather the details and then take back control when it’s complete. If your chatbot is integrated with your core business systems, agents can also use it to query these systems and instantly deliver more personalized answers.

Train Agents Faster

Whether it’s a new agent’s first day on the job or an experienced agent’s first time supporting a new product or service, Agent Assist is there to guide their learning with reliable answers. Your agents will get up to speed faster, and you can be confident that questions are always being answered accurately and in your brand’s voice.
