Schedule and agenda
From chaos to clarity: The three metrics you need to prove chatbot performance
- Session info: Wed Sep 6 at 3:10 pm
- Location: Columbia Ballroom Mainstage at Washington Hilton
All too often, companies launch a chatbot without any plan in place to manage and grow its performance. Shortly after going live however, they realize they lack the data, insights, and plan, that they need to improve the quality and demonstrate the true value the bot brings to the business.
In this session we help you cut through the noise of false metrics, like containment, NLU rate, CSAT and more, and share the true KPIs that you need to improve performance, and show the business impact of Conversational AI.
Featured speaker: Ian Collins, CEO, Wysdom AI
An introduction to bot management, a 4-step, data-driven approach to building a great bot
- Session info: Wed Sep 6 at 4:00 pm
- Location: Embassy Room (Terrace Level) at Washington Hilton
Chatbot operators: this one’s for you. In this session, we’re going to equip you with the knowledge you need about how to manage a great bot.
We’ll break down the steps of a typical bot improvement sprint, showing you what data to look at, how to interpret and analyze the results, how to identify improvement priorities, and most importantly, the best way to report success to your executive team.
Featured presenter: Jay Athia, Sr. Director of Customer Success, Wysdom AI
Meet the Wysdom Operations Center: chatbot analytics software
- Session info: Wed Sep 6 at 2:25 pm
- Location: Demo stage at Washington Hilton
The key to building a great chatbot is having access to conversation data, coupled with the right analytics that helps you track how well your bot is automating experiences, delivering high CSAT, and achieving cost targets.
With the Operations Center, chatbot operators have the data, tools, and insights to do just that. We’ll run through our most valuable functions including:
- Bot Automation Score, Bot Experience Score, and Agent Experience Score: three top-level KPIs that summarize bot performance for easy understanding
- Conversation Topics: AI-based technology that classifies both virtual and live agent interactions into topics, for simplified search and discovery
- Conversation Analytics: where you can see how well you’re automating topics, understand the customer experience for every conversation, and drill down to the transcripts for in-depth analysis
- Virtual Agent Analytics: where you can analyze the performance of your bot corpus, including NLU performance, false positives, repetition rates, and more, and also find all the messages your bot can’t understand
Featured presenter: Jay Athia, Sr. Director of Customer Success, Wysdom AI
