Supercharge your customer journey with AI agents!

Forget everything you thought you knew about customer service. Today, we're introducing Sendbird's AI Agent for enterprise customer service – the AI built to represent the best version of your business to your customers. This isn't just another chatbot; it's a quantum leap forward in how you connect with and delight your customers.

This launch marks the most significant milestone in Sendbird's evolution over the past decade, driven by the undeniable surge in demand for AI-first customer experiences—a future where AI agents will transform every aspect of how businesses operate and engage with their customers, starting with customer service.

The way the world communicates is changing. The opportunity for businesses to lead in the age of AI is here and now. For nearly a decade, Sendbird has been at the forefront of conversational technology, powering billions of conversations every month and enabling meaningful connections between people and businesses across the globe. Many businesses are scrambling to find the right approach in this new era of AI. This new AI agent for customer service is our answer. It's built on a simple principle: provide businesses with the autonomous agents they need to not only meet the rising demand for personalized, instant service, but to exceed expectations and forge deeper relationships with their customers – all at scale.

The customer service struggle is real

Customer service is in crisis. Businesses are under pressure to do more with less, and customer service teams are feeling the strain. Overwhelmed by increasing workloads and rising expectations, they're struggling to keep up, leading to:

  • Frustrated customers: Long wait times, slow resolutions, and impersonal interactions are becoming the norm. Disjointed experiences across different channels only add to the frustration, creating a growing disconnect between brands and their customers.

  • Burned-out agents: Human agents are bogged down with repetitive tasks, leading to burnout, low morale, and high turnover. This makes it even harder to provide consistent, high-quality service.

The AI challenge: Generic solutions fall short

Many organizations are looking to AI for help, but generic solutions often fall short. What businesses really need is AI that can:

  • Resolve autonomously: Understand customer inquiries, not just regurgitate FAQs. Resolve issues independently when possible, and seamlessly hand off to human agents when needed.

  • Deliver reliably at scale: Handle peak demand without breaking a sweat, ensuring consistent performance and availability, no matter the volume at peak hours or seasons.

  • Delight customers at every turn: Don't make customers jump through hoops to reach you. Provide personalized, consistent support across all channels, creating a connected and positive experience they'll appreciate.

Sendbird AI Agent: The solution to the customer service crisis

Sendbird's AI Agent is designed to address these challenges head-on. It's an omnichannel AI solution that empowers you to provide exceptional customer service at scale.
