AI Agents Transform Customer Outreach

TFSPH partnered with WIZ.AI in October 2023 to implement AI-powered Talkbots for debt recovery operations. This strategic move revolutionized their customer engagement approach, with Ms. Cecilia Baltazar, Head of Collection and Asset Recovery, noting that Talkbots became “one of our most significant tools” for boosting customer reach and operational efficiency.

Multilingual AI Capabilities Drive Success

The AI agents’ ability to understand and communicate in Taglish (Tagalog and English combined) proved crucial for customer engagement success. This linguistic flexibility ensures customers easily understand the nature and purpose of calls, significantly improving communication effectiveness.

Customer Engagement Optimization Results

Following the initial success in debt recovery, TFSPH expanded AI agent usage to insurance renewals and due date reminders. This expansion resulted in significant improvements in lead generation and operational confidence in AI capabilities.

Data-Driven AI Agent Performance

WIZ.AI conducted regular business reviews and provided actionable recommendations from gathered insights. This collaborative approach led to continuous optimization of customer engagement strategies and identification of new use cases for enhanced operational efficiency.

Future-Ready AI Implementation

By Q1 2024, Toyota Financial Services began exploring AI agents for inbound calls. The Customer Experience (CX) Optimization Plan aims to increase payment rates by up to 5% and reduce early hang-ups by up to 10%.

Automotive Finance AI Innovation

The adoption of AI agents has fundamentally transformed TFSPH’s operational efficiency and customer experience delivery. This technological advancement has opened doors to numerous innovative ideas for further enhancing customer engagement and pursuing additional AI-driven projects.

“It is amazing that it can recognize and speak Taglish so there’s flexibility in terms of ensuring that customers understand the nature and purpose of the call. When we adopted the Talkbot in our operations, it has paved the way to many other ideas so we can further level up the customer experience, continue to enhance value-added services, and pursue more projects involving this voice AI facility.”
