In today’s dynamic digital landscape, customer engagement has evolved beyond traditional methods like phone calls and emails.

Enter live chat – the preferred avenue for immediate solutions and timely assistance.

But here’s the kicker: successful communication isn’t merely about snappy responses. It pivots on striking the right chord – the ideal tone and sentiment – to foster strong customer bonds.

A common challenge in live chat interactions is the absence of feedback on message tones. 

The result? Platform users unknowingly send vibes that are negative or off-key, leaving customers with a less-than-optimal perception of the interaction. It’s a significant hiccup that needs a remedy.

Interestingly, a study by PwC suggests that 73% of customers consider a positive experience with customer service as a key factor in their brand loyalty.

This underscores the weight of striking the right tone. 

To elevate this positive experience, we’re introducing a groundbreaking feature: real-time expressions for platform users composing messages in the live chat domain.

Let’s delve into the details of this exciting upgrade!

What Are Expressions?

Expressions is a specialised Verloop.io feature powered by LLM models. It offers real-time guidance on message tone to platform users, especially customer service agents, during live chat interactions.

The primary goal is to provide users with a tool that accurately assesses and adjusts the emotional tone of their messages in conversations.

By leveraging LLM Models and Generative AI, we suggest appropriate tones, enhancing overall sentiment and experiences for agents and customers alike.

How It Works 

While crafting messages within the live chat section, our AI performs real-time tone analysis triggered by specific punctuation cues. If the message remains unsent, the AI evaluates its tone; upon sending, no unnecessary API call is initiated.

Should the AI fail to identify a specific tone, feedback will not be provided.

To maintain a consistent and aligned communication style with the brand, administrators can establish a distinct brand tone for platform users.

Should a composed message deviate from the brand tone, users promptly receive a suggestion for adjustments. With a simple click, users can seamlessly switch the tone to harmonise with the brand’s established style.

Verloop.io’s Expressions is adept at recognising the following tones:

1. Formal 

This tone marries thoroughness with respect, presenting a direct yet courteous communication approach.

2. Informal

Resembling a conversation with a friend, this tone is expressive and conversational, fostering a friendly atmosphere.

3. Optimistic 

Carrying hope and positivity for the future, the optimistic tone elevates the customer’s outlook.

4. Worried 

Conveying apprehension and anxiety, the worried tone reflects concern about the unknown.

5. Cooperative 

Frequently observed in workplace discussions, this tone encourages collaboration and shared goal participation.

6. Assertive 

Emitting confidence and authority, the assertive tone is compelling and straightforward in idea presentation.

Additionally, admins have the flexibility to add more tones to the tone adjustment co-pilot feature, enabling a broader range of communication styles. 

This empowers companies to customise the tone options available to users and adapt to diverse customer needs.
