AI

The world is changing on a year-on-year basis and Artificial intelligence is no longer science fiction. Businesses and startups today have been working towards innovative solutions that can improve customer service experience using tech-centric mechanisms. A decade ago, customer service was focused on putting out a good product, service options and fair pricing. However, with new entrants competition has heated up, and with it – customer satisfaction has evolved drastically.

As the business model for the customer experience is changing, multinational companies have started using AI tech to give each consumer a unique proposition. We might have come across videos of KFC using facial recognition which can predict what a customer will want to eat. Now the customer will be able to take pictures with a machine, which will recognise the diner’s face, sex, age, mood and other features, then help to recommend suitable food and set meals and complete the ordering process. Another interesting story is of Starbucks which uses its loyalty card and mobile app to collect and analyze customer data.

Undoubtedly, in the last few years, India has also come a long way in artificial intelligence, and with 600 million active internet users, new-age startups have been bringing in creative strategies to gauge the attention of consumers. Below are the top five new-age startups using AI to enhance value to their customers.
