Company builds voice assistants that augment call centers and claims 71% phone interactions despite only 9% self‑service usage (Gartner), uses transformer‑based language models and cross‑language replication to deploy in 15 countries with "very little degradation," integrates name‑recognition and verification for accessibility, and complies with GDPR‑level security. Examples include replacing or bridging airline phone channels and a government deployment for National Savings & Investment premium bonds; results show improved reach to older, full‑sentence callers and reduced human load.
