Tired of chatbots that stall when customers need real help? We dive into how agentic #AI flips the script by taking actions inside your systems—issuing refunds within limits, updating orders, authenticating users, and escalating with intent—while humans handle complex, high-empathy moments. Joe Anderson, Senior Director and Head of #CX and Digital Transformation at TaskUs, breaks down a practical playbook: choose the right high-volume use cases, embed guardrails and escalation paths, and integrate platforms like Decagon and Regal to ship in weeks, not quarters.

We walk through safety by design, from prompt hardening and policy constraints to continuous human evaluation that tunes agents over time. Regulated industries like healthcare and financial services come up often, and we outline how to meet compliance standards while delivering faster resolutions and better customer outcomes. The conversation also tackles a persistent myth: AI won’t erase your support team. It will elevate them. As tier-zero and tier-one tickets automate, human experts shift to white-glove support, retention saves, and nuanced sales where judgment and empathy pay off.

The business model is evolving too. Instead of hourly rates, TaskUs leans into outcome-based pricing and gain share, aligning incentives around first contact resolution, containment, CSAT, and cost per resolution. For leaders just starting, we offer a clear path: pick a major contact driver, launch to a small percent of traffic, measure rigorously, and scale as accuracy climbs. You’ll learn how to convert insights from AI interactions into product fixes and journey improvements that reduce avoidable contacts and lift satisfaction across the board.

If you’re ready to transform customer experience with real action, not just conversation, this episode is your blueprint. Subscribe, share with your CX and product teams, and leave a review telling us which high-impact use case you’ll tackle first.
