"Customer self service" is not something new to the business world, but with the rapid development and innovation with Ai we are now at an era where we can push boundaries and innovate further.

Our approach to the problem can be described by a high level flow as given b...

For an example, like the sales force automation process or the complaint management process, same set of fields, same set of business rules, yes ! but obviously things have got smarter with BI intelligence and better looking interactive user interfaces, but the main core remains the same. The CRM applications still relies mostly on manual data entry that users fill through forms and fields. CRM solution providers would sell their solutions by claiming its equipped with cu...
