Afiniti®
Afiniti transforms the way humans interact by applying artificial intelligence to dis-cover, predict and affect patterns of interpersonal behavior.
Afiniti’s principal application today enables the real-time, optimized pairing of indi-vidual contact center agents with individual customers in large enterprises. Afiniti is unique in providing such an application predicated on pairing individuals.
A key element of our business is a pay-for-performance business model in which our clients can compensate us based on the incremental revenues and cost savings we deliver. When deployed at scale, our technology can contribute significant propor-tions of our clients’ profitability.
The Afiniti deployment cycle is typically between twenty-five and one hundred days. Deployment does not require any change to existing technology infrastructure or call routing configurations, and does not affect agent hiring, training, staffing, of com-pensation. When live, Afiniti is essentially invisible to both customers and agents.

The ScienceBehind AfinitiAfiniti pairs callers and agents by analyzing customer and agent behavior using big data analytics and artificial intelligence algorithms to determine the optimal behavioral fit. We refer to this process as Enterprise Behavioral Pairing™, or EBP™. We combine customer data from third parties, from diverse sources including third-party data providers such as Allant™, Acxiom™, Experian™, together with US and international census archive with internal client data to provide a holistic view of individual customers.
To predict agent behavior, Afiniti examines between 30 and 120 days of historical inter-actions and determines the variance in interaction outcome for each agent. Afiniti also optionally circulates a twenty-minute survey that provides a baseline on the behavior of newly employed agents.
Every twenty-four hours, Afiniti’s artificial intelligence algorithms scan all newly gen-erated contact center data and incorporate this information into Afiniti’s continually evolving behavioral pairing models. Each model changes daily, and is not only unique by customer, but also unique down to the skill group level. There is no static model of behavior that Afiniti deploys.
Our artificial intelligence technology is based on a decade of research and relies on patented, proprietary pattern-matching technology, which is unique in the marketplace.

A Better Pair™
On a daily basis, Afiniti identifies patterns of successful communication within available consumer data, surveyed agent behavioral information and historical call outcome records. Afiniti’s patented technology then processes over one billion calculations per second to establish the likely behavior of contacts and agents and assigns the optimal pairings between the two. Afiniti’s unique EBP solution increases sales and retention rates, enhances customer satisfaction, and reduces a variety of cost metrics.
Typical revenue improvements focus on increasing telesales conversion rates, customer retention rates, and cross- and up- sell opportunities. Cost reduction opportunities will frequently focus on average handle time reduction and first call resolution enhancement.

and internal client data.
Agent Behavioral DataAfiniti gathers agent behavioral
data through a voluntary, custom, 20-minute online survey.
Historical Outcome DataThe outcome of each interaction is analyzed to continually improve
Afiniti’s Artificial Intelligence Engine.

Precisely MeasurableAfiniti delivers precisely measurable results by adopting a patented approach of alternating Afiniti ON and OFF in short time cycles.
These short alternating cycles provide a clear statistical view as to the benefit that we deliver, regardless of changes in revenue, agent population, consumer behavior, marketing campaigns, technologies, staffing or other variables.
Because Afiniti’s benefit is precisely measurable, Afiniti can deploy its primary business model of receiving only a share of the economic benefit it delivers.
