First, it was generative AI. Now, agentic AI is the term many tech providers are shouting from the rooftops, and there are already several nifty use cases.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet, on their own, use cases will only drive so much value.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead, some contact center leaders are realizing a much bigger opportunity, and it starts with data and context.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These leaders are asking: Who are our customers? Why do they reach out? Who are our agents? What intents do they handle well? Where do they need training?\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Then, finally, how do we connect the dots?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ultimately, that\u2019s a challenge that deploying a call summary tool or AI agent won\u2019t solve. However, an integrated contact center data layer will.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Building a Contact Center Data Layer<\/h2>\n

To build a data layer, don\u2019t jump to solutions. Consider: What data do we already have? What do we know we need to know? And what else should we be looking for?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Then, build those insights into a data layer, which can inform the contact center\u2019s routing strategies, quality assurance, journey orchestration, and beyond.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That intelligence should be real-time and actionable, not just post-facto analysis, which requires extra human capital to make sense of.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, most CCaaS platforms aren\u2019t set up for this. Instead, they rely on customers to integrate diverse information into their data lake.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, Content Guru is flipping the script.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Content Guru Approach<\/h2>\n

Content Guru offers a full-stack CCaaS platform with an AI orchestration layer, alongside integrated workforce management, quality assurance, conversational intelligence, and various other tools.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

All these generate data that flows into the vendor\u2019s adjacent customer data platform (CDP): <\/span>storm CKS<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As contact centers migrate to Content Guru, they can start with the data they already have and get it structured and integrated before creating a data loop.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The data loop takes new data, like analytics, and feeds it in automatically.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In doing so, Content Guru doesn\u2019t just present a deep contact center platform but a system that becomes smarter over time.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A Contact Center That Gets Smarter<\/h2>\n

In most customer environments, there are multiple systems of record. By converging its storm CCaaS and CDP tech, Content Guru creates a single, unified, persistent data layer.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over time, contact centers can expose that layer to more data from various solutions, like Internet of Things (IoT) devices that feed in real-time information.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In doing so, businesses can create an “omni-data strategy” that sets the stage for new AI use cases.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As <\/span>Martin Taylor, Deputy CEO of Content Guru<\/span><\/b>, explained <\/span>during a recent interview<\/span><\/a>: \u201cCustomers often come to us already thinking about deployment. We usually have to walk them back a few steps and ask: Is your data in a stable state? Are you recording the same types of events consistently? Do you have overlapping data or similar information presented in different ways?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Part of the role of omni-data and the customer data platform is to smooth all of that out – like running a lawn roller over it – so the data becomes tidy, consistent, and accurate. Once that\u2019s in place, it can then be used effectively to build AI models that become smarter over time.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Consider the IoT example and how it may bolster a contact center AI strategy. An IoT device could send signals from gadgets like smart meters, which indicate an issue, into the data layer, where it\u2019s normalized.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Feeding from this, a CDP can trigger sending a proactive notification to the customer, as it is a system of action, not just a system of record, before they even know something has gone wrong, removing the need for that customer to make contact. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet, that\u2019s just one possibility of many, as this approach supports data-backed routing, customer journey mapping, hyper-personalized interactions, and more.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Indeed, Content Guru\u2019s strategy brings new capabilities to the market, not just new features.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Contact Center Buyers Should Ask\u2026\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Without a clear-cut data strategy, the effectiveness of contact center AI has a ceiling. Yet, most CCaaS platforms aren\u2019t set up to deliver that, without leaning on third parties.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As such, contact center buyers should ask: What\u2019s the trajectory?\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Those providers that answer this question best will have a vision for building an infrastructure that adapts and evolves with tech, regardless of next year\u2019s buzzword.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Content Guru\u2019s storm platform and brain AI orchestration layer can offer a compelling answer. For more about its tech, visit: www.contentguru.com<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
