What We Do
Espressive is the pioneer in AI for employee self-service, redefining how employees get help by delivering exceptional employee experiences. We were founded on the belief that getting help at work shouldn’t be so hard. While others have focused on solving the problems faced by help desk agents, Espressive shifted the focus to the employee—because you can’t have self-service if your employees are not engaged. However, this doesn’t mean the help desk is left behind. When you improve the employee experience through automation, you reduce redundant help desk work, enabling agents to focus on more strategic projects. Barista, our AI-based virtual support agent (VSA), brings the ease of consumer virtual assistants, such as Amazon Alexa and Google Home, into the workplace. Barista automates resolution of employee questions, issues, and requests with personalized experiences that result in employee adoption of 80 to 85% and reduced help desk call volume of 50 to 70%.
