Talkdesk provides a customer experience platform that helps organizations operate a human-AI hybrid workforce across service, sales, and support. The platform includes enterprise-grade Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) to support the human workforce and Customer Experience Automation (CXA) to build and manage the AI workforce and orchestrate work across both. CXA can work with Talkdesk CCaaS or an existing third-party contact center. CXA uses agentic AI and multi-agent orchestration to automate and coordinate how customer needs are resolved.
