It specializes in customer experience optimization in the service sector, bringing to the area its unique service solutions. With a product portfolio based on Intelligent Waiting-loop Management and Voice Intelligence (AI), our service tech enterprise creates a customer-oriented digital service world. virtualQ’s Intelligent Waiting-loop Management combines the best of machine learning and data science technologies: our patented Intelligent Waiting-loop and Call-back Service (virtual Queue) does away with the wait in service hotlines.

Intelligent algorithms and voice automation technology categorise customers according to the help they need, ensuring that a more streamlined service is waiting for them. It also allows customers to change their personal information without involving call agents. Furthermore, virtualQ Voice Intelligence (AI) can answer recurring customer queries over the phone automatically and spare your customers a tedious hunt through your FAQs.
