DCI to Deploy Interactions Intelligent Virtual Assistant to Ensure Consistency and Improve Customer Satisfaction

FRANKLIN, MA – May 29, 2017 – Interactions, LLC, the leading provider of Intelligent Virtual Assistants (IVAs) for enterprise brands, today announced that Diversified Consultants, Inc (DCI), one of the nation’s leading telecom collection agencies, will be deploying its award-winning Intelligent Virtual Assistants to mitigate risk, reduce cost and ensure customer satisfaction.

Unlike traditional customer care technology, Intelligent Virtual Assistants combine artificial intelligence with human understanding to deliver the best possible interaction. For DCI, this means using automation to deliver consistent service and reduce cost per collection.

Our customer conversations have to be flexible and human-like in order to negotiate, understand significant savings opportunities, and set up payment arrangements,” said Michael Anna, Chief Marketing Officer at DCI. “With Interactions, we’re able to provide this level of understanding using technology with a human touch. We’re providing an incredible customer experience and strengthening perceptions around collection agencies.”

Interactions use of automation and AI is especially important for the collections industry as agencies look to create new ways to lower costs per collection and reduce risk.
