Do you ever feel like you're stuck in an endless cycle of impersonal customer service interactions? The repetitive, automated digital chatbots and “helpful” virtual agents leave us craving a true human connection. Unfortunately, the current state of customer interactions with companies often falls short, leaving us feeling frustrated and unsatisfied. But what if there was a way to escape this monotonous cycle and usher in a new era of customer engagement?
Whether we initiate contact or receive outreach from a brand, interactions need to be convenient and seamless. We want our experiences to be customized to our unique needs without any unnecessary repetition. Like our personal relationships, our interactions with companies should be intuitive, connected, and one-of-a-kind. The consumer journey should be continuous and asynchronous rather than a series of disjointed phone calls or chat sessions.
Imagine stepping off that exhausting merry-go-round and entering a world where automated conversations are efficient and enjoyable. Envision a virtual assistant replicating the experience of speaking with the company's best agent - a proactive, humanized, conversational, and friendly companion you can rely on. This virtual assistant should perfectly embody the company's brand and goals, providing every customer with a personalized and seamless experience.
That’s where Enlighten Autopilot comes in.

Autopilot in Action
Lisa is a OneTravel rewards member. While multi-tasking, she calls to extend by one day a pre-booked trip. She is greeted by an intelligent virtual agent, powered by Enlighten Autopilot, who recognizes Lisa from the saved number and quickly completes the request to add a day to the hotel reservation, as well as change her departure flight.
Autopilot informs Lisa that these changes will cost her a total of $530. Lisa then asks whether she can use points to complete this transaction. Autopilot then informs Lisa that it will be 5,000 points and reminds her she has 563,000 accrued reward points. Lisa confirms that using points is her payment preference, and Autopilot confirms the travel changes and sends a follow-up email to Lisa for verification.
Let’s take a close look to better understand the revolutionary ways in which Enlighten Autopilot enhanced this interaction.
Human-level comprehension: Autopilot is based on the latest advancements in large language models (LLM) and generative AI technologies, creating a complete and humanized conversational experience that surpasses basic automation capabilities by mimicking human understanding and response. Autopilot not only comprehends customer inquiries at a human level but also responds in a way that resembles natural human conversation. Autopilot's ability to understand the subtleties of customer queries allows for personalized and contextually relevant responses, leading to a more engaging customer experience that feels natural and drives better resolution.
Robust integrations: With its vast integration library, Autopilot can access Lisa's account and utilize her itinerary points balance, faster and more accurately than a human agent would. The impressive integration capabilities of Autopilot enable it to obtain the whole range of customer account information smoothly and use it to enhance interactions. By tapping into Lisa's account, Autopilot can view her itinerary and points balance, and offer proactive assistance with flight bookings, upgrades, or any other related queries, making smarter decisions than a human agent would. This powerful integration guarantees that Autopilot optimizes customer data, giving precise and personalized recommendations and solutions.
Context switching: Autopilot is an advanced conversational AI solution that can swiftly adapt to the customer's evolving needs during the conversation by switching context, easily recognizing when a customer is transitioning from one intent to another. For instance, Lisa started the conversation with a request to add a day to her reservation, but then moved on to a different intent of paying for this change using points. Autopilot smoothly transitions the discussion to cater to her preference. This remarkable ability to understand and adapt to changing contexts allows Autopilot to provide a personalized and seamless humanized experience.
Back jumping: Autopilot is designed to be just as seamless as a human agent, in its ability to pick up where it left off, using new information to move the conversation forward. It also can refer back to previous conversations, just like a human agent would. If a conversation requires revisiting previous topics or information, Autopilot can easily do so while maintaining continuity in the conversation. This allows Autopilot to provide accurate and up-to-date assistance to the customer, based on any new information gathered during the interaction.
