With the application, in the first few weeks, it’s already possible to increase customer satisfaction rates by about 20% and boost productivity by 30% 

New York – Atento, one of the largest providers of customer relationship management and business process outsourcing services (CRM/BPO) globally and a leader in the industry in Latin America, is embracing the generative AI revolution. By adopting Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service, the company introduces its latest innovation, which will function as a Copilot for customer service agents.

This new solution enables automatic process distribution and the most suitable and prompt responses during any interaction. Throughout the engagement, it also manages all system formalization steps and status updates, seamlessly integrating with the communication channels chosen by the customer.

«The new solution allows for an even better experience between consumers and brands and aligns with increasingly efficient and personalized customer service demanded by users. In a pilot we implemented, we noticed an over 20% increase in customer satisfaction in the first few weeks,» highlights Eduardo Aguirre, CIO of Atento.

Microsoft’s collaboration was crucial for curating the tool’s taxonomy and calibration, which continues to learn constantly. Additionally, its Power Automate solution integrated legacy systems, reducing manual efforts and aiding in response time optimization. In practice, this resulted in a 30% increase in team productivity and nearly a 20% reduction in operational errors.

Data security, privacy, and compliance were fundamental aspects in developing the solution. With the capabilities of Azure OpenAI Service, information is anonymized, and data is kept within Atento’s environment and under the company’s domain, adhering to all confidentiality standards.

«Atento is harnessing the power of AI not only to enhance customer service but also to increase team productivity. In these early stages, we can already observe positive results on both fronts, with teams benefiting from a Copilot for certain tasks while focusing on other aspects of customer demands,» affirms Christiano Faig, Vice President of Technology and Solutions at Microsoft Brazil.

«The success journey of this project began with a thorough mapping of the stages of the relationship cycle, from the perspectives of both the customer and the collaborator. For this, the involvement of our highly experienced consultant team was crucial,» highlights Aguirre.
