How can artificial intelligence benefit charities?

But how can this technology help charities? AI applications like Siri and Alexa are built with natural language processing, meaning that they understand the sentence or question much better than their programmed conversational interface counterparts. It allows a user to speak with the AI more naturally rather than give precise voice or text commands that we can easily get wrong.

Artificial intelligence is found in many aspects of our daily life, and naturally, it can make our work life much more productive, which is precisely what many charities aim to achieve, since it is more time and cost effective. So how can artificial intelligence, such as Click4Assistance’s live chat website AI chatbot, Artie, and formbot, Coni, benefit charities?

Increase productivity

The immediate benefit for charities when they deploy Artie or Coni is a boost in productivity. Artie and Coni both save your customer service team massive amounts of time, by being the front line of communication on your charity website and social media, and filtering only the more complicated customer queries to a human agent. Your agents no longer have to answer simple questions such as locations or opening hours, or help with navigation since Artie and Coni do this, saving your human agents that time.

Engage users immediately

This may not seem like a big one, but it is. People are often reluctant to ask for help in general, and more so for those who really need assistance. Artie and Coni can very easily break the ice since they are friendly, but because they are bots, they are not perceived as judgemental, and website visitors are more likely to answer their questions than from your human customer service agent. Additionally, it will get quite expensive to have a team manually engaging website visitors all day, so let Artie and Coni manage that for you.

Gather data automatically

Your charity’s customer service agents are busy and have a lot on their plate. Wouldn’t it be perfect if they could have someone collecting preliminary information from website visitors, saving them that time? Coni can be an invaluable resource here, collecting information from website visitors and passing that onto your team so they could get straight to helping people.

Always online, always available

The last and most impactful benefit for your website is that your charity will always be online and available, so no matter what time a benefactor needs your assistance, someone will be there to answer basic questions and provide baseline advice until a human agent is online to provide further information. Help people when they need help, no matter what time it is.
