The demands for top-notch customer service have never been greater — but so are the rewards for those companies that can deliver on the promise. Indeed, organizations with higher customer loyalty scores have delivered 3.5 times more cumulative shareholder return over 10 years, according to Bain & Company.?

While technology has largely fueled these rising customer expectations, it’s also delivering the tools to meet the moment. Notably, generative AI provides unprecedented capabilities that have enabled organizations of all sizes and across all industries to transform their contact center operations.

Whether it’s how customers interact with brands or supporting team functions behind the scenes, AI is significantly enhancing customer experiences and resulting in higher customer loyalty scores. Many leading organizations are realizing these gains through the implementation of Google Cloud’s Customer Engagement Suite with Google AI.

Since its introduction last September, Customer Engagement Suite has helped companies deliver greatly improved customer service and business impact. They have boosted self-service with Conversational Agents, empowered customer service representatives with Agent Assist, and modernized contact center operations with Conversational Insights, Quality AI, and Google Cloud Contact Center-as-a-Service (CCaaS).?

To help existing users and new ones achieve even more, we’re excited to announce the latest advancements and features coming to the Customer Engagement Suite.?

These new capabilities make building AI agents easier, help customer service representatives be more productive, and streamline contact center operations. Read on to discover how leading businesses worldwide are already transforming the way they connect with their customers using Customer Engagement Suite — as well as what the platform can do for you.

Announcing new AI-enabled capabilities?

Today, we are happy to introduce our latest Customer Engagement Suite innovations that will enable users to build hybrid conversational agents at scale, enhance employee coaching and training, and improve contact center operations.

• New Conversational Agents capabilities
  • Natural sounding HD voices: Our latest voice models provide human-sounding emotions and intonations, with steerable voice instructions and configurable pauses, pronunciation, and emotion to provide life-like conversational experiences. There are now 30 new voices with various tones to choose from. We can’t wait for you to hear them.

    To improve reliability and quality at the scale large enterprises need, we also introduced observability, evaluation, and test-case instrumentation into the Conversational Agents console. This enables customers and partners to validate agent quality at scale, with tools to consistently monitor and improve their self-service experiences.?
  • Prebuilt agents: These quick start reference agents allow users to get started easily with consumer commerce. We are initially launching four prebuilt agents: flight booking, movie ticketing, shopping assistance, and appointment booking. They demonstrate various capabilities including: geolocation API use; connecting to Google products like BigQuery for data retrieval; Google Calendar for appointment booking; and rich text formatting to build beautiful interfaces for end users.
  • Out-of-the-box connectors: We are making it easy to expand AI agent capabilities by introducing more than 30 data retrieval connectors to augment the knowledge of your agent, and 70-plus action connectors to allow your agent to take actions with or without human-in-the-loop for approvals. Connectors include common data sources like BigQuery, Salesforce, SharePoint, Jira, ServiceNow and more. With the new Conversational Agents connectors, customers get out-of-the-box, click-to-deploy tools that speed up time to production, provide seamless customer personalization, and quickly help realize the business impact of Conversational AI.

This allows new hires and less experienced support staff to learn in a safe, controlled environment to avoid inadvertently delivering lower quality responses and risking negative impact on an organization’s brand, while providing self-service tools for them to continually improve on quality. Agent Trainer boosts business performance and customer satisfaction, delivering ROI through lower training costs, tailored training recommendations, faster agent proficiency, and better customer satisfaction and average handle time scores, ultimately reducing turnover.
