.19.05.2023

 

In the competitive telecommunications and customer experience management landscape, delivering top-notch support, the capacity to understand a diverse range of accents is critical. For one of the largest telecommunications companies in the world, finding high-quality French Canadian ASR training data proved to be a significant challenge. In this success story, we reveal how our expertise in providing specialized accent datasets and our commitment to data security has transformed our client’s contact center solutions, enabling them to better serve their North American clientele with enhanced sales, customer experience, compliance, and operational excellence.

 

The customer

The client is one of the largest telecommunications companies in the world that designs, builds, and operates award-winning customer experience management solutions for North American clients in core verticals, including financial services, retail, eCommerce, telecommunications, and government. The client’s premier contact center solution provides enhanced sales, customer experience, compliance, and operational excellence by augmenting the performance of contact center staff.

The context

Our client’s contact center technical department has been responsible for developing ASR models for all of their clients’ call centers. They have had challenges developing models that could meet their accent requirement and thus were searching for a supplier with French Canadian ASR Training Data. Our client needed a vendor they could trust to provide them with high-quality training data while supporting their unique need for French Canadian localization.

Given the inherent complexity of unprocessed call center audio, we rely on timestamps provided by our clients to accurately trim speech segments. While Voice Activity Detection (VAD) technology can enhance this process, we have tailored our approach to best meet the specific needs of this client. Our current solution effectively isolates speech segments, ensuring optimal results for their requirements

Protecting Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from corruption, compromise, or loss was essential to our clients as they deal with call center data that contains sensitive client information. They were looking for a supplier who takes data security seriously.
