Pegasystems introduced Pega GenAI™ Coach, a generative AI-powered mentor for Pega solutions that proactively advises users to help them achieve optimal outcomes.
Leveraging an organization’s own best practices for sales, service, and operations, Coach quickly analyzes a user’s work and relevant data in context to intelligently guide them toward better and faster results.
While generative AI solutions can help overwhelmed employees perform tasks, most solutions are disconnected from the underlying workflows. This burdens users to seek guidance and determine the perfect prompt to get answers. Instead, Pega GenAI Coach directly integrates into workflows and acts as an always-on mentor within Pega solutions. It analyzes work and guides users with salient advice to overcome roadblocks. Managers can use Coach to quickly get up to speed on their team’s work and surface insights into their team’s performance.
Coaches can be easily configured to ensure each Coach is tailored to an organization’s objectives and their employees’ specific needs. This helps users to achieve objectives such as:
- Optimize sales team performance: Coach analyzes existing opportunity, lead, contact, and interaction data within Pega Sales Automation™ and offers suggestions to help overcome barriers in moving deals forward. Sales leadership can easily input industry knowledge and their own best practices directly into Coach, helping ensure their teams are getting industry and business-specific advice to provide prospects and clients a better sales experience.
- Improve back-office operations: Coach helps ensure back-office case workers can better complete complex work by providing personalized instructions that leverage an understanding of procedural information, regulatory requirements, and case data, keeping everything running smoothly.
- Quickly resolve healthcare claims: Coach can help case workers by quickly analyzing and summarizing a customer’s claim, plan, and history to surface answers for customer inquiries, while also providing guidance on the best path to resolution if further steps are required.
Built on the Pega GenAI™ architecture, Coach handles complex workflows with auditability, security, and guardrails appropriate for the enterprise. Its seamless integration with Pega AI capabilities allows enterprises to leverage a broad spectrum of AI. For example, Coach can use statistical predictions from Pega Process AI to suggest ways to avoid fines related to missed deadlines. Coach will also access information synthesized by Pega GenAI™ Knowledge Buddy to bring relevant enterprise knowledge directly to users as they work on cases.
Pega GenAI Coach is the latest generative AI capability in the newest edition of the Pega Infinity™ portfolio of products, which was also announced today and is now available.
