Amazon Q in Connect

Deliver agents the responses, actions, and information they need to solve issues in real time

Amazon Q in Connect, an evolution of Amazon Connect Wisdom, uses generative AI to deliver agents suggested responses and actions to address customer questions, providing faster issue resolution and improved customer satisfaction. Knowledge articles, wikis, and FAQs can be spread across separate repositories. Agents waste time trying to navigate these different sources of information while the customer waits for an answer. Amazon Q in Connect uses the real-time conversation with the customer, along with relevant company content, to automatically recommend what to say or what actions an agent should take to better assist customers. With Amazon Q, agents can also use natural language to search across connected knowledge sources to receive generated responses, recommended actions, and links to more information.

Customers

Traeger Grills

Orbit Irrigation is a manufacturer and supplier of home and commercial irrigation systems. 

"To resolve customers' questions, our agents spend two to three minutes per interaction searching through several different sources of knowledge, including Orbit product pages, customer account pages, and internal knowledge forums. This multistep process adds time to the interactions for agents and customers. The new responses automatically generated at each turn of the customer conversation by Amazon Q in Connect are tailored based on our own knowledge base articles. Amazon Q in Connect will create 10%–15% time savings on every contact, and the increased number of calls handled every hour is expected to translate directly into costs savings for Orbit—all done with improved customer sentiment."

Brian Dick, Senior Manager of Customer Care, Orbit Irrigation

Traeger Grills is a leading provider of smokers, grills, and barbecue products.

"As we have grown our customer base and diversified our product offerings, one of our biggest challenges has been in providing our agents and supervisors with the right information at the right time to increase customer satisfaction. Amazon Connect's new generative AI features have shown great promise in testing at our contact center. In the future, we envision these features will enable our agents and supervisors to focus on delivering premiere customer experiences. We anticipate Amazon Q in Connect will improve agent efficiency by 20% by providing agents with generated responses and actions that are specific to customer needs. By concisely summarizing important information from customer conversations using Amazon Connect Contact Lens in a structured, easy-to-read format, supervisors will no longer need to invest valuable time in listening to entire call recordings or reading detailed transcripts."

NatWest Group is a relationship bank for a digital world, serving 19 million people, families, and businesses in communities throughout the UK and Ireland. 

"For our customers to feel supported through financial decisions at every stage of their lives, they need timely responses and a consistent experience regardless of which agent they speak with. Yet providing accurate details on our vast array of products and services across all of our brands often requires that our agents spend time searching across our knowledge management sources while customers wait for an answer. NatWest Group believes generative AI presents a great opportunity for our business, especially within the contact center. We expect that Amazon Q in Connect will ensure both our new and experienced agents are prompted in real time with accurate information to provide a consistently high-quality customer experience."
