‘Transcom Chats’ is a series of interviews with Transcom staff on things and topics we’re passionate about. The aim is to bring forward, talk to, and highlight the people that make Transcom the brand you know and love. This time with a slight twist. We’re starting an AI series in which we will discuss anything and everything to do with AI and CX.
Introduction.
Interview.
What specific benefits can AI solutions offer clients?
Predominantly our clients are looking for improvements around productivity and those can be really numerous. So we are starting with the tools that are assisting our agents and those tools allow them to shorten the average handling time of interactions. But we are talking here as well about conversational AI. So basically we are talking here about chatbots and voice bots that allow us to reduce the volume that has to be handled by live agents. So really the benefits can be numerous and depending on the situation of the company or particular case we can suggest and recommend very various solutions.Are there any industries in particular that could benefit from AI solutions?
Maybe not really industries as such but I believe specific type of companies that have some kind of common challenges. So for example you have very fast growing companies that also join or launch in several markets at the same time. And obviously it is difficult and very costly if you would like to do this in a traditional way using or engaging just live agents because they will have maybe very little volume at the beginning plus little productivity so the marginal cost of handling those interactions will be very high.Tell us more about Automated Translation.
I personally love Automated Translation. This is the tool that probably the industry and many companies have been waiting for many years now. And I remember as well all the evolutions of how Automated Translation or those live translations were developed. So initially of course with the machine translations the quality was not really sufficient and that actually discouraged many companies from engaging with this technology. Now with this is not even evolution, this is revolution what has happened over the last couple of months. Not even years, but months. The quality has become super and especially for the most problematic languages or most challenging languages like German, Dutch or the Nordic languages the results are super. So again the cost of those interactions has dropped dramatically with obviously the benefit for the clients and their customers.How can AI help BPOs and clients interested in onshoring, offshoring, and nearshoring?
I think that this opens totally new ways and doors to how the BPO industry will operate because, the language and the language complexity is not more an issue so you can have your operating center whenever you find it fit. For whatever reason you decide to have a center somewhere in Europe but maybe you're looking for substantial cost benefits and you go with nearshore to North Africa or to the Philippines and you can literally support any language from with this location. So you will see benefits not just in the cost as such but by having the entire operations for multi well teams or multi market in the same location you can have much more convenient management funds the team can be culturally aligned to each other so the benefits are totally numerous it's not just the cost of support.Read more

The talent is here: what 20 years in Tunisia taught us about customer experience.
A customer in Stockholm sends an email in Swedish. A Transcom advisor in Tunis reads it, answers it and solves the problem. The customer never knows that the reply came from the other side of the Mediterranean. They just know that it was right.
That ordinary moment says a lot about how our Tunisian site has changed. This month, Transcom Tunisia is featured in Forbes Africa's Tunisia 2026 edition alongside companies such as Deloitte, InstaDeep and LEONI. It’s this proud occasion that has
