What are we doing?
At Talkdesk we are reimagining how people experience contact centers, helping our customers create long lasting and meaningful relations with their customers. These relations are made of individual interactions where communication is supported on the language we all learn since the first day we are born. The language that we humans learn to master over the years and use almost without thinking about it. That's how we express our thoughts, feelings and needs when we reach out to a contact center.
The capacity to make sense of the message that is being conveyed when we communicate has been reserved to humans alone, but we are building the next generation of solutions that will mimic our ability to understand language, ensuring that the customer needs are always well understood and efficiently handled. We are a growing team of curious and talented people that is focused on leveraging the power of Natural Language Processing to deliver added value to our customers whenever possible.
