Overview

For a company looking to provide delightful user experiences, it's critical to resolve customer issues quickly and efficiently. Uber has implemented COTA, a system that helps representatives provide the best experience to customers by suggesting the best solutions. COTA improves the speed and reliability of customer support through automated ticket classification and answer selection for support representatives. By improving speed and reliability, COTA also helps reduce customer support operations costs.

In this Spotlight on Data, find out how Uber leverages large-scale data and deep learning models for operational efficiency and improved user experience. Piero Molino details how Uber has reduced issue resolution time by 20% while maintaining levels of customer satisfaction, using NLP, deep learning, A/B testing, and productionized models.
