Is My Branch Ready For Generative AI?

Imagine this scenario: A customer is peacefully driving along the road near one of your bank branches, daydreaming and listening to his favorite tracks. Suddenly, he realizes he forgot about something he can easily solve with one of your supportive branch employees. He stops the car, parks outside the building, and heads straight in. What happens next? Will your branch be prepared to provide a seamless and innovative experience that sets you apart from competitors?

How advanced is your branch's digitalization and automation? Can your customers use their debit and credit cards in combination with their smartphones to perform services independently and quickly in the branch without relying on a customer advisor? Perhaps you have geolocation technology that recognizes and welcomes them the moment they enter. Maybe they can schedule a meeting with a specialist or receive a virtual queue ticket directly on their mobile phone. If there’s no branch relation manager available on site – why not to give him a chance to solve his case during online meeting in one of the available, private rooms?

Improving Customer Experience with Bank Branch Automation

Consider the impact of such seamless service on your customer. Would mentioned solutions change you customer’s perception and attitude towards you? Would it give him the feeling that you’re miles ahead of your competition? We truly believe that it would likely elevate their perception of your bank, positioning you as a leader in innovation, positively impacting the sentiment. But this is just the beginning.

A crucial question we posed was: How can we bridge the gap between scheduling a meeting and participating in it, making the most of waiting time? Whether it’s an unexpected visit, a postponed meeting, or an early arrival, customers often end up mindlessly scrolling through their phones. Instead, why not automate the process, saving time for both employees and customers?

Leveraging AI with Customized Chatbot / Videobot Solutions

Picture your bank branch, where digitalization and automation seamlessly enhance every customer interaction. This isn't a distant dream but a reality we can help you achieve. Tailored chatbot and videobot solutions can be seamlessly integrated into your existing infrastructure, whether hosted on-premise or adapted to your specific needs, ensuring top-notch security and accessibility.

Having a chatbot / videobot solution available for your branch processes definitely meets the criteria we’ve just described. Such technology, powered by a finetuned Large Language Model (LLM) specific to your organization, would be able to:

  • Initiating Communication: Instantly engage with customers as they enter the branch, providing a warm and personalized greeting.
  • Authenticating and Authorizing Users: Securely verify customer identities using credit card information or mobile authentication.
  • Introducing Branch Employees: Facilitate smooth introductions to branch employees, enhancing the personal touch.
  • Gathering Initial Information: Collect relevant customer information upfront, streamlining subsequent interactions.
  • Answering Branch-Related Queries: Address common questions and concerns without the need for human intervention, freeing up staff for more complex tasks.
  • Assessing Sentiment Throughout the Interaction: Monitor customer emotions to ensure a positive experience from start to finish.
  • Summarizing Conversations: Provide detailed summaries for branch specialists, ensuring they are fully informed before engaging with the customer.

Some cases might be entirely resolved by the chatbot, but our goal is a smooth transition from automation to human expertise. Recognizing the risk of “False-Positive” scenarios, especially in sensitive areas like loans, we recommend leaving final decisions to your specialists, supported by AI-driven recommendations based on customer data and initial automated interactions.

Maximizing Opportunities Beyond Transactions
