Frame AI empowers organizations to truly understand the people they serve. New technology offers an opportunity for processes that are both efficient and humane, by listening at scale. We use AI to pull individual voices from the crowds, recognize meaningful communities within giant aggregations, and power experiences that react to the needs of both customers and the people serving them. By listening better, we make better experiences, better jobs, and better businesses.
Since 2018, Frame AI has leveraged the technology of Large Language Models (LLMs) to build the essential integration point for understanding customers. Frame delivers economic benefits from improved listening, surfacing actionable interventions that reduce costs, minimize customer relationship risks, and maximize opportunities.
