## AI agents for BPOs & contact centers

BPOs win on price, scale, and SLAs — all of which AI agents improve. Jelliu lets a contact center deploy AI agents for inbound and outbound at scale: instant elastic capacity, multilingual coverage, identical quality on every interaction, and live analytics across every campaign — while human agents focus on the complex, high-value work that protects margin and client retention.

### The problem

Contact-center economics are squeezed by wages, attrition, training, and the cost of staffing for peaks. Quality varies by agent and shift, multilingual coverage is expensive to hire for, and clients increasingly expect AI in the stack without losing oversight.

### How Jelliu solves it

- Elastic capacity: spin up or scale down AI agents in seconds for campaigns and seasonal peaks — no recruiting.
- Inbound + outbound: deflect first-line inbound and run outbound campaigns from one platform.
- Multilingual: serve multiple languages without per-language hiring.
- Consistent quality + live QA: every interaction follows script and is scored in real time.
- Blended model: AI handles volume, humans take escalations, with warm context-rich handoff.
- Multi-tenant ready: run agents and analytics per client engagement.

### The outcome

BPOs serve more volume at lower cost per interaction, hit SLAs through peaks without over-hiring, offer clients an AI-forward stack with full analytics and oversight, and redeploy their best people onto the conversations that actually need a human.

**FAQ**

- **Does AI replace our agents?** It augments them. AI absorbs repeatable volume and first-line work; your people handle complex escalations, with warm, context-rich handoff between the two.
- **How does it help with multilingual coverage?** Agents speak multiple languages out of the box (English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German), so you cover languages without hiring per language.
