Technology to Directly Engage with
Professionals and Consumers Through Multiple Channels Boosting
Customer Experience and Providing Instant Personalized
Assistance
Brand Engagement Network (“BEN”), an emerging provider of
personalized customer engagement AI, today announced that its AI
Assistants are available for multiple automotive and healthcare use
cases. Each AI Assistant is a multimodal conversational AI tailored
for a specific intended purpose. The AI Assistants are designed to
assist customers, patients, and professionals and to provide
improved customer service and patient interaction through
human-like AI experiences. The AI Assistants are available in app,
on the web and can be deployed through life-size kiosks in both
automotive and healthcare settings, to provide a seamless
experience from the web to the floor.
Automotive Assistants include:
- Customer Service Assistant: BEN is seeking to transform
the automotive dealership industry in partnership with Automotive
Financial Group, Inc. (“AFG”) and integrating its AI Assistants
into automotive call centers to streamline processes and delivering
tailored customer experiences seeking to ensure both customer
satisfaction and retention with every interaction. BEN’s focus is
enabling its AI Assistants to complete tasks and do more than
traditional phone system automation technologies do today.
- Website Sales Assistant: BEN’s human-like AI web
assistant is designed to elevate the digital car buying experience
by seamlessly guiding potential customers from initial inquiry to
final sale. With the power to understand and adapt to customer
preferences and complete tasks, we believe BEN’s AI Assistants are
an invaluable tool for dealerships aiming to sell more cars and
drive revenue growth in the competitive automotive
marketplace.
Healthcare Assistants include:
- Adherence Assistant: The technology will offer
educational assistance to pharmacy customers regarding newly
prescribed or existing medications on relevant considerations, such
as methods of administration, among other things. BEN’s AI
Assistants aim to help consumers understand key information about
the medications they are prescribed by providing an opportunity to
have a personal, private conversation.
- Medical Professional Assistant: The solution will serve
as a healthcare professional assistant that can deliver insights
reflective of the latest research and medical system specific
protocols for medical professionals. The technology will engage
directly with medical professionals through various devices to
provide insights based on an ingested dataset that BEN believes
will be able to help medical professionals achieve their patient
care goals.
Michael Zacharski, Chief Executive Officer of BEN,
said:
“There’s a growing interest in both the automotive and
healthcare sector to deliver an outstanding customer experience and
new advancements in conversational AI empower us to provide what we
believe is a unique resource for a private human-like interaction
that consumers value. The BEN AI Assistant goes beyond customer
experience, serving as a direct resource to front-line teams and
assists them with their day-to-day tasks. We’re excited to have our
AI Assistants engaging with customers and employees in-market and
look forward to continuing to capitalize on the momentum we’re
seeing.”
Wright Brewer, Chief Executive Officer, President and Founder
of Automotive Financial Group, Inc said:
“AFG has been enabling automotive manufacturers and dealerships
through technology since its inception and we understand the
challenges that manufacturers and dealerships face maintaining
margins amidst increasing operational costs and rising numbers of
service requests. We knew that AI would be a huge opportunity for
this market ahead and BEN was the right partner to help us overcome
those mounting challenges. AI Assistants can increase revenues and
increase customer satisfaction by ensuring a consistent road to
both sales and service. Together, we’re ensuring that customers
receive unparalleled service and support along their entire journey
– with customized, data-driven servicing to end customers and
dealership staff. We’re proud to be a BEN partner and look forward
