Carro Launches AI Voicebot Revolution in Southeast Asia Auto Industry

AI Voicebot Revolution is marked by Southeast Asia’s largest automotive marketplace with its groundbreaking AI-driven customer service technology. Furthermore, traditional auto retail experience across the region gets transformed in the same way.

Initially, Carro continues to enhance its digital infrastructure and capabilities. Subsequently, the company leads the transformation of Southeast Asia’s automotive industry and benefits car owners across the region.

Powered by WIZ.AI, Carro’s newly developed automotive Talkbots module hyper-personalises customer engagements, particularly for individuals looking to sell their vehicles.

Revolutionary AI Technology

Advanced Conversational Intelligence

TalkBots represent conversational voice artificial intelligence. In fact, they are several orders of magnitude more complex than everyday virtual assistants. By comparison, your phone or laptop’s virtual assistant pales in comparison.

Furthermore, WIZ.AI’s proprietary artificial intelligence framework powers this technology. As a result, it allows callers to interact using natural spoken language. Consequently, the system offers a truly authentic, human-like conversational experience.

Multi-Language Capabilities

In addition, the Talkbot listens, understands, and speaks several different ASEAN languages. It also incorporates localised accents perfectly. Moreover, the system includes human-like actions such as pauses, clarification statements, and chasing statements.

Launch Date

First deployed in Indonesia as part of regional rollout strategy.

Driving Results at Scale

Customer Satisfaction Excellence

The TalkBots maintain a similar customer response rate to human agents. In fact, they can handle entire conversations for the vast majority of calls. Remarkably, customers regularly thank the TalkBots when calls conclude, demonstrating a high level of satisfaction.

Competitive Market Advantage

As a result of this high-volume lead handling capability, Carro saw significant increases in transactions. Consequently, the company gained an edge over competitors in accessing the Indonesian market. Without this solution, the local call centre operation would not have been able to address these leads effectively.

“Southeast Asia’s automotive sector is in the thick of a digital revolution. Nevertheless, Carro has undertaken many industry firsts over the past few years. COVID-19 catalysed our drive to better engage with customers through multiple avenues.”
“Moreover, Carro will continue to invest in innovative technologies. We work with like-minded ecosystem players to benefit car owners.”
— Aaron Tan, CEO & Founder of Carro

Regional Expansion Plans

Phased Market Rollout

Initially, Carro has launched TalkBots in Indonesia first. Following this initial rollout, the company will extend the technology to Singapore and Malaysia. This phased expansion is expected to turbocharge growth within the region’s automotive industry.

Continuous Innovation Commitment

At the same time, the service will be continuously updated and improved. As a result, this ensures enhanced customer experience and engagement across all markets.

“We believe that voice is the new great frontier of customer engagement since digital. Therefore, by working closely with Carro, we both have grown tremendously. We push the boundaries together to provide a better customer experience.”
“Furthermore, it is the caller experience that sets our conversational voice AI Talkbots light years ahead of the competition. They are practically indistinguishable from a human agent. The system understands natural spoken language and provides an authentic human experience. Additionally, it incorporates the unique nuances of language present in different communities.”
— Jennifer Zhang, CEO and Founder of WIZ.AI

Industry Leadership in AI Voicebot Revolution

Digital Transformation Pioneer

This AI-powered voice bot represents the latest step in Carro’s transformation drive. Through this innovation, the firm is transforming the traditional auto retail experience across the region.

Contactless Service Innovation

In addition, Carro currently offers Southeast Asia’s first contactless car purchasing service. This offering is already available in Singapore, Indonesia, and Thailand. Thanks to this service, customers can browse cars on Carro’s website at their convenience.

Proprietary Inspection System

All interactions include Carro’s proprietary 150-point vehicle inspection. Subsequently, the company’s platform and pricing algorithms power this process.

AI Car Defect Detection

MyTukar subsidiary deployed autonomous Car Defect Detection and Car Plate Masking system. Moreover, AI detects car defects within three seconds using computer vision.

Beyond Sales: Complete Auto Solutions

Comprehensive Service Philosophy

Carro offers a full-stack service for all aspects of car ownership. More importantly, the company understands that transforming the industry must go beyond just sales and purchases. To achieve lasting impact, it must also improve drivers’ experience with the typically burdensome ownership process.

AI-Powered Insurance Solutions

For example, their usage-based insurance offering leverages AI and data science. Specifically, the system assesses driver behaviour and distance travelled. As a result, Carro is able to provide customised insurance premiums. These tailored rates better reflect the way customers actually drive. This approach is particularly valuable considering current movement restrictions.

Technology Expansion Timeline

Furthermore, Carro will soon extend defect detection technology to Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand. This represents the company’s commitment to regional digital transformation.

The Future of Automotive Industry in AI Voicebot Revolution

Ultimately, Carro’s AI voicebot technology marks a pivotal moment in Southeast Asia’s automotive digitalisation. Therefore, the company’s innovative approach combines cutting-edge AI with deep understanding of regional market needs.

As the automotive industry continues evolving, Carro’s comprehensive digital solutions position the company as the leader in transforming traditional car ownership experiences across Southeast Asia.
