Verint has also announced new bots to enhance its rapidly growing offerings:

• Verint Agent Copilot Bots: These bots automate specific tasks in the contact center and can effectively double the capacity of agents.
• Verint Knowledge Automation Bot: This bot uses generative AI to search multiple enterprise content sources and condense the information into a single, easily digestible response for customer inquiries.
• Verint Genie Bot: Recently added to the contact center suite, this bot is embedded in Verint’s leading Speech Analytics and uses customer interaction data to inform business decisions quickly, delivering insights in days rather than weeks or months.
