The Institutional Yes!
A $35 billion financial services is able to save up to $1B in lost business by implementing a regulated single-click sign-up process.
A multinational corporation increased customer satisfaction by 10X and reduced wasted time by 83% at their call centers. They used artificial intelligence to understand each customer’s question and access the right answer from the right database in real time (including ingredients, sourcing, and supply chain information). This allows human agents to focus on building relationships and selling additional products.
A financial services firm identified a $300 million opportunity to win new customers in an adjacent market. Their approach eased the average 2.5 hour commute for locals in a major city by digitizing and unifying different transportation systems into a single mobile app.
