Voice automation is evolving quickly, and many contact centres are now exploring how AI-powered voice agents can help manage demand, improve availability, and reduce pressure on live agents. But introducing this technology raises important questions around customer trust, experience quality, and where human support should remain essential.
In this webinar, we look at how contact centres can introduce AI voice agents in a way that enhances service rather than detracts from it. We’ll explore where voice agents work best, how to design handovers that feel natural, and how to ensure automation supports (rather than replaces) the human skills that matter most to customers.
Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of how to deploy AI voice agents responsibly, with a focus on maintaining empathy, clarity, and customer confidence throughout the journey.
Panellists:
- Martin Hill-Wilson, Brainfood Consulting
- Lauren Kiefer, ElevenLabs
- Xander Freeman, Call Centre Helper
