This collaboration integrates eGain’s Knowledge Hub into TELUS International’s offerings, enhancing its Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) with advanced AI and knowledge management capabilities.
Innovative solutions for modern customer service

A key component, eGain AssistGPT, provides consumable, correct, and compliant responses to agents and customers, enhancing efficiency and satisfaction.
