NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) today announced the next generation of Enlighten Copilot designed specifically for supervisors and CX decision-makers powered by purpose-built AI. This innovative solution addresses the critical market demand for AI-powered augmentation for the increasingly complex operational and analytical work of CX leaders. AI use in the workplace jumped to over 40% in 2023, according to research from Metrigy.

NICE Enlighten Copilot is the leading CX-specific AI copilot delivering real-time analysis of organizations’ CX data, enabling employees and leaders to take action directly and drive next-gen CX.

NICE Enlighten Copilot encompasses many key use cases for CX organizations to address business needs across each level of operation. Enlighten Copilot for Supervisors joins the portfolio of NICE’s AI solutions including Enlighten Copilot for Agents and Enlighten Actions.

Actions gives CX leaders 100% visibility into operations to make the most informed decisions by:

• Integrating with native and third-party applications and data in the CXone suite to automatically initiate workflow and staffing adjustments and automation

Barry Cooper, President, CX Division, NICE, said, “The next gen NICE Enlighten Copilot is the industry's leading AI-powered employee assist purpose-built for CX. Built from thousands of models trained on CX-specific interactions, NICE Enlighten Copilot amplifies skilled labor, automating repetitive tasks and delivering faster access to knowledge. In combination with NICE Enlighten Actions, CX leaders can increase decision velocity and realize business goals faster, streamlining operations and ultimately driving exceptional customer experience.”

Robin Gareiss, Metrigy CEO and principal analyst, said: “Our research validates NICE’s approach with Enlighten Copilot: Business leaders find significant value in leveraging CX-specific AI to both automate manual functions and augment mission-critical work of employees. Among those already using AI for CX, 66% rely on AI for quality management and 55% to review open-ended feedback from customers. I can’t stress enough the competitive advantage companies will realize by using AI to automate analysis of customer feedback and workflows, as well as elevating supervisors from tactical to strategic roles.”
