History edit
In 2001, Peter Voss founded an R&D startup, Adaptive AI, Inc., to research and develop a prototype artificial general intelligence system based on his theory of intelligence.[1] In 2009 Voss founded Smart Action Company, LLC to commercialize this technology. Created out of Voss' research and development, SmartAction created its first practical application of this new technology focused on the management of inbound and outbound calls for contact centers.[3]
Technology edit
The company provides a Voice Registration platform that uses natural language speech recognition and is based on an object-oriented coding framework.[4] This platforms utilises a proprietary AI engine drive the conversation with the caller, intended to improve over time.[5][6] The platform is intended to make development and updates to the system quicker than older technology by using built-in knowledge and skills.
