Amazon Connect is the result of the ten years of development that went into building the tools Amazon uses to provide its award-winning customer service at massive scale and launching it as a publicly available AWS service.With Amazon Connect, you can create your own cloud-based contact center and be taking calls in minutes. Amazon Connect leverages the power of Artificial Intelligence and the large ecosystem of AWS services such as Amazon Lex, Amazon Polly, AWS Lambda, Amazon S3 and Amazon Kinesis to provide a truly frustration free, easy-to-use, extensible, and natural customer experience.
With this technology, we are transforming an industry and the way customers interact with businesses and how agents service them.
