How TechCorp Reduced Support Costs by 50% While Improving CSAT
The Challenge
TechCorp Inc., a leading software company with over 1,000 employees, was facing a significant challenge: their customer support call volume was growing by 30% year over year, but they couldn't justify the cost of expanding their support team at the same rate.
With a global customer base spanning multiple time zones, TechCorp was struggling to provide consistent, high-quality support without dramatically increasing operational costs. Their existing team of 50 support agents was overwhelmed, leading to:
- Average wait times of 15+ minutes during peak hours
- Limited after-hours support coverage
- Increasing customer dissatisfaction
- Agent burnout and high turnover
The Solution
After evaluating several options, TechCorp partnered with VoiceAI to implement an AI-powered voice agent solution that could handle routine customer inquiries while seamlessly escalating complex issues to human agents.
The implementation process included:
- Analyzing historical call data to identify common customer inquiries and patterns
- Training the AI voice agents on TechCorp's products, policies, and procedures
- Integrating with TechCorp's existing CRM and ticketing systems
- Developing custom conversation flows for different types of support inquiries
- Creating a seamless handoff process for complex issues requiring human intervention
The entire implementation was completed in just 6 weeks, with minimal disruption to TechCorp's existing operations.
The Results
Within three months of implementing VoiceAI's solution, TechCorp experienced dramatic improvements across all key metrics:
