With reported benefits such as a 91% average model accuracy, 40% reduction in First Response Time, and 53% deflection rate – Forethought aims to lower support costs, reduce resolution time, and improve overall customer satisfaction.
The tool caters to different industries, including E-commerce, SaaS, FinTech, and Travel — offering tailored solutions that address specific customer service challenges within these sectors. For example, it can instantly resolve common E-commerce inquiries like shipping status updates, saving support costs and boosting customer satisfaction scores (CSAT).
