NEW YORK – May 23rd, 2006 Audium, the leading provider of VoiceXML application creation and management software, today announced that it is offering Adaptive Audio, patented technology from Interactive Digital that monitors human behavior in self-service environments and adjusts IVR responses accordingly, as a standardized deployment option within its integrated development environment. Interactive Digital's patented Adaptive Audio software dynamically adjusts the speaking rate and message content of IVR applications in real time based on individual caller behavior. This personalizes the call experience as it happens, creating a friendlier, more responsive customer experience. The benefits of Adaptive Audio include shorter IVR calls, increased call automation, reduced costs and improved customer satisfaction. Companies implementing Adaptive Audio often experience reductions of 7%-13% in average call times, including a large retail banking institution that reduced IVR call duration from an average of 90 seconds per call to 84 seconds, and a public transportation company that realized savings of 24 seconds per call on a 174 second IVR script with the product. “Adaptive Audio’s technology provides a valuable tool for creating a personalized IVR experience that callers will genuinely choose to use, and we’re pleased to be able to offer it to our customers.” said Michael Bergelson, CEO of Audium. “Adaptive Audio has a proven track record for shortening automated calls by up to 15 percent. Additionally, the product has demonstrated success at increasing the number of calls contained within the IVR. By offering the ability to deploy Adaptive Audio as a drag-and drop addition within the most popular VoiceXML development and management environment, we’ve significantly reduced the barriers to deploying a more responsive and customer-friendly IVR,” said Daniel O’Sullivan, CEO of Interactive Digital. The joint solution is currently available from Audium; for more information, contact Audium Sales at +1 212 609 4000 to request a live demonstration.
