■ Partnership Background and Details: Providing Comprehensive AI Solutions for Diversifying Customer Support Methods
Designing a fulfilling customer experience (CX) is a crucial management strategy that contributes to maximizing a company's LTV (Customer Lifetime Value) by preventing potential customer churn and encouraging continued use by existing customers.
In recent years, AI utilization has rapidly advanced in the customer support domain, with support methods diversifying beyond self-service FAQs to include AI agents and AI chatbots. Amidst this, the ability to oversee all scattered customer contact points and design a consistent customer experience has become a critical issue that determines a company's competitiveness.
Helpfeel has built its strength on high-quality knowledge base construction and operation through its experience supporting over 800 websites. Meanwhile, with the expansion of customer support methods, there was a need to leverage this constructed knowledge across multiple contact points to expand its value proposition.
Against this backdrop, Helpfeel is partnering with Karakuri, which has an extensive track record of implementing its customer support AI platform for enterprises. This partnership allows Helpfeel to propose comprehensive AI solutions across all customer contact points by adding Karakuri's customer support AI agent "GeN" and AI chatbot "KARAKURI chatbot" to its lineup, while keeping its traditional knowledge base at the core.
■ Future Outlook: Leading the Social Implementation of AI by Providing Comprehensive AI Solutions
With this partnership, Helpfeel will establish a sales and support team that includes Karakuri's products, and will proceed to create success stories of AI utilization, mainly for enterprise companies. The collaboration will not be limited to sales and operations; they will also work on building best practices that leverage the characteristics of both companies' products and strengthening their collaborative structure for business expansion.
Furthermore, Helpfeel plans to further strengthen its collaboration with external advanced AI technologies and services, not limited to its own products. By optimally combining diverse technologies, the company will demonstrate its true value as a corporate DX partner and lead the social implementation of AI.
