    • Improved AI-powered Transcriptions Accuracy and Expanded Language Support: Customers can leverage improved AI transcription summaries with even greater accuracy at no additional cost, as all Interaction Analytics services have been updated to the latest transcriptions model. The latest models also support the ability to transcribe speech in multiple languages and translations. Feeding improved transcription summaries into AI models is critical to improving model accuracy and serves as the foundation for organizations to make the most out of their customer interactions, whether it’s reviewing transcripts for a more personalized experience or identifying trends in the contact center.
    • AI Summarization for External CRMs: AI summarization can be accessed in an organization’s CRM of choice, such as Salesforce, Zoho, or other leading providers. Contact center agents on active calls can easily access the AI summarization from previous calls, helping to provide more context about the customer and deliver a more personalized experience.
    • External AI Summarization Plug-in: Plug-and-play external AI (LLM) for 8x8 Contact Center means businesses can leverage an existing AI provider for summarizations.

  • Silent Mobile Authentication for CPaaS Customers: Provides a seamless method of mobile verification, allowing users to verify phone numbers with just one click and without manual input. Instead of receiving and entering a code, users are automatically verified based on their network IP. This approach enhances security and delivers a smoother experience when accessing mobile services or applications.
  • Native WhatsApp Integrations: 8x8 WhatsApp messaging capabilities are now natively integrated into customer engagement platforms CleverTap and MoEngage. This integration allows businesses to leverage the robust features of 8x8's messaging services directly within these platforms, enhancing customer interactions through seamless and efficient communication
