Voi, a leading European mobility company, has been revolutionizing urban transportation since its start six years ago in Stockholm, Sweden. With operations spanning across Europe, Voi's mission is to see cities designed for living, free from noise and pollution.
By offering e-scooters, e-bikes, and software solutions, Voi promotes environmentally friendly and sustainable urban transportation.
Challenges
Voi wanted to go from a button-based chatbot to a conversational setup in order to level up their support and future-proof it, which led them to Kindly. Anna Tiberg, Leader of the Customer Experience Operations function, explains their key challenges:
“Our key challenge was to bring down costs with maintained or even improved service towards our customers. We had a large support team working with well documented SOPs and a big portion of cases that was a good fit for automation. The shift towards a high share of self service makes it possible for us to scale efficiently.”
Katie Wilson, Operational Excellence Manager, also acknowledge the repetitiveness of their incoming questions:
“Early on, we noticed that a significant portion of customer inquiries were repetitive. This led us to focus on automating these frequent interactions, starting with the most straightforward tasks. By targeting this low-hanging fruit, we achieved strong results quickly.”
Selection
Voi evaluated several chatbot providers before choosing Kindly. The decision-making process involved testing and rating each vendor based on key priorities for Voi, including ease of use and maintenance, support for multiple languages and integration capabilities. Anna speaks on the selection:
“There was a long list of different parameters that the whole team tested, and Kindly scored the highest in the combined results.
The fact that Kindly had bots live that actually served customers in many different languages was a key thing for us, as we’re operating in so many different markets.”
She continues: “We got a great impression of the Kindly team in general, very easy to work with and professional in their demos and descriptions of how to go about the implementation which created a lot of trust.”
