Microsoft Launches Multilingual Voice Agents for Contact Centers

Multilingual customer support

Microsoft has introduced multilingual autonomous voice agents using Copilot Studio, a significant advancement in their AI capabilities.

The voice agents are designed to handle multiple languages effortlessly, requiring just a simple configuration. This ensures that business logic and integrations remain consistent across different languages, streamlining the deployment process for companies operating in multilingual environments. In regions with diverse languages, these bots can dynamically select languages during conversations based on user input or the dialed phone number.

This feature enhances user experience by providing seamless and contextually appropriate responses, regardless of the language spoken by the user. For example, if a user starts a conversation in English but switches to Spanish, the bot can seamlessly continue the conversation in Spanish without any interruption.

Administrators have the flexibility to set up routing rules for calls that require human assistance. This means calls can be directed to customer service representatives who are fluent in the caller’s language, ensuring that complex queries or issues are handled effectively. This routing capability is particularly beneficial for global businesses that need to provide support in multiple languages.

The voice agents will be available in 26 languages, providing wide linguistic coverage. This extensive language support underscores Microsoft’s commitment to making their AI solutions accessible and effective for a global audience.

The integration of these multilingual capabilities into Copilot Studio for the Dynamics 365 Contact Center represents a significant step forward in the development of autonomous agents, enabling businesses to scale their support operations efficiently while maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction.
