24 alternatives to Hivinq

A lot of teams are hesitant to adopt AI customer service bots due to their inauthenticity in replies, hallucination, etc. As a result, they're not able to leverage the speed of LLM's to reduce their customer turnaround time. So instead of replying to the customer directly, Hivinq drafts responses for the customer support team using it's knowledge about the product. If the drafted answers are inaccurate, team members can let it know and it will observe the thread to learn and correct itself.

    Hey everyone, I’m the head of engineering at GrooveHQ. We’ve spent the last 10+ years building customer support tools, and today we’re launching Helply. Helply is an AI customer support agent that we are so confident in, we’ve backed it up with a guaranteed resolution rate. AI support agents live and die by the data they have access to and the way they finesse the customer experience. Basic automations worked well in the past, but now people expect more. Here are some semi-technical notes: --- 1) Controlled data syncing --- We wanted tight integrations with existing helpdesks, but also…

    Last year when GPT-4 was released I started making lots of little voice + LLM experiments. Voice interfaces are fun; there are several interesting new problem spaces to explore. I'm convinced that voice is going to be a bigger and bigger part of how we all interact with generative AI. But one thing that's hard, today, is building voice bots that respond as quickly as humans do in conversation. A 500ms voice-to-voice response time is just barely possible with today's AI models. You can get down to 500ms if you: host transcription, LLM inference, and voice generation all together in one place;…

    I'm a control freak, the thought of having AI auto-replying to emails is ridiculous. Every founder I've met are the same way, just typing the words "Put your support/sales on auto-pilot" makes me cringe. I built min. to help me and my teammates with emails. Who should read it, who should reply, when to follow up, etc. min. is: - A simple email interface to manage both private and team inboxes. - An AI-native inbox that sorts and prioritizes messages into custom labels and folders. - A replacement for patchwork of CRMs, helpdesks, and spreadsheets with just… email. - Conversational…

    Hey, citizens of HN! I and my team have developed a bot for technical support. We set ourselves the task of reaching a new level of chatbots. The thing is that nowadays bots often redirect customers to support staff when a question was not found in the bot's presets database or the customer requires some kind of interaction with the company (for example, wants to buy a product). We have solved this problem. 1. the bot is capable of answering complex questions that require analyzing the company's knowledge base (especially the technical part). 2. the possibility to leave a request for some…

    Hi friends, I'm Dmitry, co-founder of Ordemio. I'd like to share with you what we have accomplished in 30 days of non-stop, 10-hour workdays. It was launched on August 1st, 2024. Is it good enough to attract our first customers? We have launched a new product in the highly competitive niche of "ChatGPT AI chatbot for a website," facing over 100 existing competitors on purpose. It's a gamble, and I'm unsure if it was the right decision. Feel free to ask any questions. Cheers.

    Hi HN, I'm Jared from Drafting AI (https://getdrafting.com/). We're a Chrome extension that helps operations and customer support teams work through their inboxes more efficiently. Here's a quick demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCDqAMaYx2Q We believe AI can be deployed more widely when you mitigate hallucinations through human-in-the-loop review. This led to two decisions: 1. A Chrome Extension is ideal for presenting actions in third-party apps for human review. When AI suggests issuing a refund via Shopify, what better way to show it than through…
