Language I/O, released its multilingual chatbot for Salesforce. Live chat is expected to grow by 87 per cent over the next 12-18 months and real-time conversations help increase the customer retention rate by 50 per cent. What’s more, analysts have predicted that by this year, 85 per cent of customer service interactions will be automated via chatbots.
“It’s crucial for businesses to make their customers feel valued and supported, regardless of their location or native language,” said Heather Morgan Shoemaker, CEO and co-founder at Language I/O. “Chatbots are very often the first entry point to help that they encounter and a multilingual experience goes a long way to creating goodwill between a business and customer.”
Customers expect immediate responses from businesses when they are searching for help with an issue. In fact, 64 per cent of customers expect customer service support to be available 24/7. Increasing demands from customers drive up the use of chatbots, as the first line of assistance from businesses. The challenge comes in meeting those customers in their native language, so effective problem solving and direction is provided.
Messages passed to chatbots, as with live chat, are not written out in complete sentences with proper grammar. Customers are more conversational. The challenge of multilingual translation for chatbots, that Language I/O solves, processes all the user-generated content (UCG) including jargon, misspellings, acronyms, product names, etc.
