Accelerating the spread of voice call utilization solutions by combining cost-effective domestically produced call recording equipment with advanced voice recognition technology
The call recording system "LogAgent" of TEAC Corporation (Head office: Tama City, Tokyo, President and CEO: Yuji Hide, hereinafter "TEAC"), a long-established audio equipment manufacturer, has been integrated with the integrated voice recognition system for call centers "AmiVoice®Communication Suite" We will collaborate with "
Since its founding in 1953, TEAC has contributed to society with its main business area of "recording and playback." The telephone call recording (voice logging) business has been expanding for over 1980 years since the 30s. Telephone call recording has evolved from the analog era to the digital era, with compression and storage technologies evolving day by day. In addition, the progress of call center systems has accelerated, and a robust and reliable telephone call recording (voice logging) system is indispensable for building medium- to large-scale systems. Among them, the clear voice recording and robust system provided by TEAC have been well-received for its safety and security, and are used in many system constructions, mainly in government agencies.
Meanwhile, Advanced Media has been developing voice recognition technology since 2003.AmiVoice®We provide voice recognition solutions for call centers using AmiVoice® Communication Suite. Call centers are positioned as important bases in CRM (Customer Relationship Management) strategies, and are expected to utilize useful information generated from contact points with customers, such as inquiries about products and services, maintenance, and handling of inquiries and complaints, to improve services and develop new products. However, while they are positioned as important bases in corporate strategies, there are limitations to how voice data, which is the "real voice of customers," can be utilized because it is sound, and this precious "treasure" has not been fully utilized in management. Therefore, we have developed "AmiVoice® Communication Suite," which utilizes voice recognition technology to convert voice generated during call center operations, which are the contact points with customers, into text data and turn it into usable "treasure."
"Through this collaboration, we hope to be able to significantly promote the spread of voice recognition solutions, as initial implementation costs will be relatively low compared to existing overseas products."
TEAC expects to expand its share and increase sales of "LogAgent" in the call center market, while Advanced Media expects to expand sales of voice recognition products and services.
From the user's perspective, it will be possible to use a voice recognition solution at a relatively low cost. In terms of support, there are also great benefits, such as the quick response to problems that only a domestic manufacturer can provide, and reduced system operation/maintenance costs.
