Bland enables businesses to build AI voice agents to automate voice-based customer interactions.

Businesses can create AI agents by selecting voices and developing conversational pathways, which dictate how the AI responds to customer interactions. These AI agents can handle complex tasks such as knowledge retrieval from documents, call transcription, and post-call analytics. The AI also integrates with existing systems, supports multiple languages, and can scale indefinitely to meet business needs.
