The Digital Agent is a Conversational Agent used to assist end users through conversations. Digital Agent replicates and analyze human dialogue (written), allowing people to communicate with electronic devices as if they were speaking with a live agent. Digital agents can recognize phrase structure and understand knowledge with technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language understanding (NLU).
End users can communicate with the digital agent in conversational English to rapidly address their problems or submit requests via Web Chat. The Digital Agent classifies user intent as a Service Request or an Incident using Natural Language Understanding (NLU), which is the foundation of the technology. Businesses can gain from Digital Agent because they improve performance, save expenses, and let them respond rapidly to a variety of end-user-related questions with less human involvement. APEX platform displays validation messages based on the information entered into the text fields. The same idea is used in a conversational manner in Digital Agent for Web Chat.
