Hoboken, N.J., August 18, 2021 – NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) today announced the launch of Enlighten XO, a first-of-its-kind solution that automatically generates insights from human conversations to build smart self-service with advanced AI. Enlighten XO turns self-service interactions into engaging experiences.

With Enlighten XO, organizations can now take a data-driven, self-learning, empirical approach to increase self-service effectiveness and drive exceptional experiences.
Today, organizations are shifting more business to digital interactions as they race to keep up with skyrocketing self-service expectations.
