Action through technology
Every Customer Direct program includes Happitu, our proprietary AI platform for conversation intelligence and Auto-QA. Configured around your intake operation, it surfaces matter demand, lead-source quality, consultation objections, intake friction, and coaching opportunities. These insights go beyond what even the best-trained agents can report on their own.
Classify matter demand, urgency, and lead-source trends to see which inquiries convert and which stall.
