Creative Virtual, a world leader in conversational AI for customer and employee engagement, have been named ‘Best Conversational AI Solutions Provider – London’ in Corporate Vision’s 2021 Media Innovator Awards. This award recognizes the London-headquartered company’s expertise in both developing conversational AI technology and delivering skilled consultation for implementing and maintaining solutions.

Creative Virtual’s award-winning technology delivers the perfect blend of machine learning and natural language rules, eliminating the feared machine learning black box. This empowers companies to take advantage of the most recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) while maintaining full control and creating accurate, reliable conversational AI solutions. This results in better customer, employee, and contact center experiences.

“After nearly two decades of Creative Virtual playing a key role in establishing and advancing the conversational AI market, it’s still always an honor to be recognized for our technology and expertise,” says Chris Ezekiel, Founder & CEO of Creative Virtual. “Being an industry leader requires the hard work and collaboration of our entire global team as well as a continuous emphasis on innovation. I’m excited to receive this award as we are preparing for our next big product launch in 2022.”

The upcoming Gluon release of V-Person™ includes updates to Creative Virtual’s chatbot, virtual agent, and live chat technologies. It also features a re-architecture of the V-Portal™ orchestration platform. The platform’s updated user interface will make it easier for organizations to deploy and maintain their conversational AI solutions without compromising on any of the advanced enterprise-grade functionality they rely on for delivering seamless, personalized digital experiences.

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.
