NICE have announced a new framework for integration with cognitive software vendors, enabling organisations to take their customer self-service channels and process automation capabilities to new heights.

By integrating with the industry’s leading artificial intelligence (AI) technology vendors for optical character recognition (OCR), chat and voice bots, and machine learning, as well as with its in-house cognitive solutions for text analytics and natural language processing, NICE’s cognitive ecosystem provides businesses with the capabilities to offer their customers a complete service offering which gets smarter over time.

One of the main ways to expand the capabilities of smart cognitive communication tools is by integrating with chatbots.

Fully integrated into back-end systems, robotic automation has the capability to provide real-time customer data to the chatbot as well as enabling the bot to execute bespoke customer requests. This deepens the ability of the bots to handle more complex and unique customer requests in real time.

The emergence of more intelligent bots is just the start of expanding the 24-hour customer self-service domain, giving customers the flexibility to interact with service centres at a time of their choosing.

Additionally, cognitive decisioning and machine learning unleash a more intelligent robotic workforce. This enables the robots to analyse, interpret and understand large volumes of customer requests, thereby enabling continual learning and improvement of business process automation. Relying on its new open framework for integrations with these advanced AI technologies, the NICE robots can process unstructured data from multiple sources (e.g. emails, chats, scanned documents, etc.) and support more complex business needs and service requests.
