Solutions: AI Workflows

Intelligent Virtual Assistant

Improve your contact center customer experience and decrease costs with an AI voice-enabled virtual assistant.

What Is an Intelligent Virtual Assistant?

Intelligent virtual assistants are powered by AI software that recognizes human speech, understands intent, and provides precise and personalized responses in a human-like voice while engaging in a conversation.

Explore the Intelligent Virtual Assistant AI Workflow

The intelligent virtual assistant AI workflow accelerates building and deploying an end-to-end intelligent virtual assistant solution. It uses NVIDIA® Riva automatic speech recognition (ASR) to transcribe a user’s spoken questions and text-to-speech (TTS) to deliver responses with an AI-synthesized voice.

The workflow contains:

  • Intelligent virtual assistant ASR and TTS training with NVIDIA NeMo and inference with NVIDIA Riva built on NVIDIA Triton™ Inference Server
  • Helm charts for cloud-native Kubernetes deployment, including Rasa’s dialog manager and Haystack’s information retrieval, question answering (IRQA)
  • Authentication, storage, logging, and monitoring components used in real-world production
  • Guidance on how to train and customize the intelligent virtual assistant workflow solution
