Configuring Zoom Contact Center AI Expert Assist
Zoom AI Expert Assist provides agents with AI-powered tools to efficiently resolve customer issues. This article explains how to set up AI Expert Assist in Zoom Contact Center.
The core features that are currently available to agents include:
- Information Retrieval: Enables agents to pull information from 3rd party systems at the right time based on the intent of the customer.
- Knowledge Base (KB) Retrieval: Evaluates the customer's intent and automatically shows the relevant knowledge base article to the agent while interacting with consumers.
- Next Best Actions: Provide agents with personalized, real-time recommendations during customer interactions.
- Recommended dispositions: Automatically select a disposition for the agent based on the engagement context. Agents can review and edit this selection before saving wrap-up.
- Smart Notes: Agents can auto-generate a concise and accurate summary of their interaction with the customer, eliminating the need to manually take notes.
- Real-time language translation: Automatically translate incoming messages to agents' preferred language and outgoing messages to customers' preferred language.
AI Expert Assist uses AI technology to analyze what the consumer is saying and looks for matches against either the intent group or the knowledge base. Intent groups allow Zoom AI to understand the intent of a consumer message. An example of an intent might be “Lookup a ticket”. Once Zoom AI Expert Assist recognizes the intent match, it can then trigger the Info Retrieval feature to pull in the appropriate data from an external API to display the data to the agent. For example, information related to an open ticket. In addition to supporting intent groups, the AI Expert Assist feature can look for matching articles from knowledge bases. When a consumer speaks a phrase into the voice channel, or types a message into the messaging channel, the AI Expert Assist looks for the best match between both intent groups and knowledge base articles assigned to the AI Expert Assist instance.
