    Description

    Sierra’s Agent OS powers AI agents that handle customer conversations across voice, chat, and messaging channels. These agents connect to backend systems like CRM, order management, and subscription platforms to complete real tasks, not just answer questions. The platform uses company knowledge bases, policies, and logic to train agents that manage complex workflows like account updates, returns, and subscription changes through structured, step-by-step actions. Customer experience teams set up agents using Sierra’s visual interface, linking conversations to systems and monitoring performance in real time. Built-in dashboards and escalation rules ensure smooth handoffs to humans when needed.
