THE FUTURE IS HERE

Macy’s uses AI-driven virtual agent to transform customer service

Macy’s recognizes that shoppers are increasingly turning to online and mobile channels to browse for merchandise and make purchases. To optimize the shopping experience, Macy’s enhanced its website with a virtual agent based on the Microsoft Dynamics 365 AI solution for customer service. With deep connections to back-end systems, the virtual agent can take action to solve customer issues and transfer customers seamlessly to a live agent if necessary. The virtual agent is already answering more than one quarter of customer queries and Macy’s plans to expand it to additional shopping channels.
