Now, you may not have to wait long in line to get answers to your queries at Nepal Telecom offices. That is because the company has brought one potent machine that handles an extensive array of customer questions. To make it clear, Nepal Telecom (NTC) has introduced a robot service called “Maina” named after a bird, that responds to your questions saving time and giving you a fresh service experience. For now, it’s available in the Sundhara office of the company but this could expand to other places in the coming months.
The robot was launched on Sunday, November 17, 2024. The company has placed its chat robot at its Sundhara office. The AI-powered robot not only reduces the reliance on human resources for services but also provides services instantly. However, it’s a demo variant and its full version will come into operation later. The robotic service has been developed by Baliyo Venture and uses technologies designed by Nepali engineers.
Office In Charge of Nepal Telecom Sundhara, Dinesh Chandra Panthy said, “Every day, 200 – 300 customers visit the office. The lack of human resources made it difficult to deliver services. With the robot, we expect faster and more efficient service delivery.”
According to the company, the human replacer gives answers to queries just like a customer representative. You can ask the robot and get information relating to the company’s services, information about new data packs, NT fiber internet packages, etc.
