HR chatbot company Talla is expanding its artificial-intelligence software into sales.
Talla’s background: As our own Will Knight wrote back in 2016, the Boston-based business develops chatbots to help new HR workers get up to speed and be more productive. The company is using machine learning and natural-language processing to create software that’s smarter than the average bot.
The news: Today, it’s launching a platform that moves into other areas of the office. It’s now augmenting sales, customer service, and other customer-facing roles. Using existing written content, Talla’s platform learns answers to customer and employee questions, and connects those answers with software that can perform a needed task.
