As we understand more about conversational automation, we realize why high volumes of sales, service and support conversations can’t be handled by chatbots or digital assistants, without relying on humans in the loop. Their decision tree logic prevents them from adjusting to the many changes in direction a customer, employee or supplier makes. They change their mind, ask unexpected questions, shift their sentiment. Its impossible to predict, and so we rely on live agents to take over.
Virtual Agents, powered by CLEVVA, are different. They are capable of automating expert-level conversations that shape to customer but stay firmly on your prescribed guardrails. They won’t break a rule or say the wrong thing. Instead you can trust them to navigate every engagement at the level of your human experts.
Boosted with Generative AI capabilities yet capable of controlling every engagement in a consistent, compliant and hyper-personalized way, CLEVVA Virtual Agents set a new global benchmark for autonomous agents within regulated industries. If you have a Digital First strategy, you need a CLEVVA Virtual Agent.

The cost of a Virtual Agent depends on the work it must perform. This impacts the upfront training (build) and deployment effort, and the volume of conversations it automates across channels.
