Astute today announced its digital self-service chatbot product, Astute
Bot
, has been named a runner-up in the 2019
National Innovation Awards
, presented by the Directors’ Club United
Kingdom, in the category of Blending Human and Artificial Intelligence.
It is the seventh product award Astute Bot has received since its
release.

Consumer brands are discovering the power of smart self-service chatbots
to improve everyday customer interactions. Astute Bot’s conversational
interface is driven by natural language processing and narrow AI, and is
designed to enable consumers to have conversations with brands to
complete a variety of interactions across digital channels like
websites, apps, SMS, and social messaging.

Astute Bot’s innovation is rooted in its ability to blend artificial and
human intelligence to provide an optimized CX. It allows companies to
provide the 24/7, instant, omnichannel support consumers demand while
empowering them to interact with brands on their own terms. Should
customers need additional help, they’re seamlessly escalated to a live
agent who is given all the context of the interaction for a smooth
transition.

Other companies recognized in this year’s National Innovation Awards
include Genesys, Jacada, Concentrix, Unbabel, and Personify XP. Jon
Snow, Founder & Chairman of Directors’ Club commented on the results:

efficiency,” said Alex George, CTO at Astute. “Our mission is to give
companies the tools they need to create amazing customer experiences
while gathering valuable insights and enabling future growth.”
