Kore.ai Announces Workplace Experience Optimization Solutions at Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo 2021

Company Rolls Out AI-First Workspace Collaboration Products to Drive Extraordinary Employee Experiences

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 18, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kore.ai, a top conversational AI software company, today announced the world’s most comprehensive suite of AI-native experience optimization solutions for workplace collaboration and productivity at Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo 2021. Specifically, the company announced WorkAssist, an AI-first unified digital workspace for the modern workplace, along with HR Assist and IT Assist, AI-first employee support-as-a-service conversational AI-based solutions for HR and IT Service Management (ITSM) respectively, and thereby introducing the world’s most comprehensive, collaboration and conversation-based workplace solution that unifies and organizes data assets to power contextual collaboration for enterprise teams.

These experience optimization solutions for employees offer the following industry-first capabilities:

  • WorkAssist: An AI-first unified digital workspace for employees to aggregate and organize data assets and applications in collaborative workspaces and enable object-based collaboration on data records including task assignments, discussion rooms/chats, meeting workspaces and collaborative documents organized in knowledge bases. In addition to collaboration capabilities, WorkAssist also includes an universal/master conversational AI intelligent virtual assistant, which enables actions on the data inside the workspaces and helps employees manage all their tasks and calendars and execute enterprise knowledge base search with omnichannel accessibility and bi-directional integrations via APIs with back-office apps. The solution is extensible by adding virtual or process assistants or additional search skills built on the Kore.ai Experience Optimization Platform.
  • HR Assist: A pre-trained, intelligent virtual assistant that solves routine HR questions, acting as a force multiplier for HR teams. HR Assist improves employee engagement with purpose-built tasks, reduces response time and helps deflect calls/emails, allowing valuable human resources to focus on business priorities and complex support needs.
  • IT Assist: Automates IT support functions with conversational AI. The pre-trained, purpose-built virtual assistant improves employee engagement, productivity and satisfaction levels. IT Assist frees valuable support and help desk staff so they can focus on critical tasks by automating workflows for high-volume but low-complexity tasks. The end result is decreased ticket loads and the elimination of duplicate tickets, while an omnichannel presence allows employees to engage via email, SMS or messaging platforms such as Microsoft Teams or Slack.

The new Kore.ai employee experience suite comes at a time when companies around the world are making the shift to distributed, digital work environments. Demand is growing for solutions that support this new way of work, engaging employees where they are and in the channel of their choice for efficient support and contextual collaboration—leading to an extraordinary experience.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
