To deliver excellent customer service, you need excellent service reps — agents who can meet a customer’s needs and accurately answer their questions, all while representing and elevating the company’s brand. Bret Taylor thinks that AI agents are the answer. As the co-founder of Sierra, Taylor is partnering with companies like Weight Watchers, Sonos, and SiriusXM to build AI agents that uniquely represent a brand’s mission and voice.
