Voicebot-Where Self-Service Meets Speech-Based Communication

Today, most customers prefer self-service rather than talking to a customer support agent about their issues or queries unless it's complex. No doubt self-service is convenient - it spares you from the tedious steps of reaching customer support, such as navigating through the menu (phone tree), awfully long wait time, and holding the call while the agent looks for information. 


According to Harvard Business Review, 81% of customers try to solve issues by themselves before reaching out to customer service reps.

Although the proportion of text-based conversation is rising, calling is still the no. 1 channel used by customers to reach customer support. 76% of customers prefer phone calls over other channels – such as Email, website, Facebook, and WhatsApp - to reach customer service. After all, voice has always been the most natural mode of communication.  

Voicebot – A perfect Blend of Self Service and Speech-Based Communication

One of the main reasons behind the exponential growth of Voicebot adoption is that it offers common ground for customers - who prefer self-service and voice-based communication (call).

Voicebot is a voice interface that enables humans to interact with computers. It has many versions depending on the application. For example, in contact centers, a conversational AI Voicebot talks to customers like a human agent would. It helps you automate inbound/outbound calls for different work functions, from sales to customer support.  

In a voice-enabled Chatbot, a Voicebot enables the customer to speak their query instead of typing. Also, they can choose to hear the response instead of reading. It's like sending and receiving 'voice notes.'
