Frequently Asked Questions
What is conversational AI?
Software that handles customer questions through chat or voice, in natural language, rather than a menu of options. It draws answers from your own content and can escalate to a person when it should.
Does it work in both French and English?
Yes. Bilingual support is built in rather than added afterwards, which matters in Quebec where a customer may switch language part-way through a conversation.
What happens when the assistant cannot answer?
It hands over to a person, with the conversation so far, so the customer does not have to repeat themselves. Deciding when to escalate is part of the design rather than an afterthought.
Where do the answers come from?
Your own documentation, product information and support content. That is what keeps answers accurate and specific to you, and it means the assistant improves as your content does.
Can it connect to our order or CRM systems?
Usually. Connecting to those systems is what lets an assistant answer about a specific order or account rather than in general terms. What is possible depends on what your systems expose.
