AI-first customer service with a natively integrated AI agent
An AI agent trained specifically for customer service that resolves routine and increasingly complex multi-step queries across every channel.
Chat, email, phone, and messaging conversations arrive in one shared inbox with ticketing built for collaboration across teams.
An assistant that proactively surfaces context from connected systems and handles admin work without leaving the conversation view.
Centralize and measure the content behind AI and self-serve support, with suggestions on what to fix and one-click actions.
Generative AI chatbots grounded in your organization's own content
IvyQuantum answers based only on your organization's own content, so responses stay accurate and consistent with your primary sources.
Enter your public website or knowledge base URL; Ivy configures the crawler to sync content, even across properties that require authentication.
Update your primary sources once and the chatbot reflects the changes, avoiding separate bot management work.
Support for more than 100 languages via Google Translate, available across SMS, IVR, email, and voice assistants.
