SpiceJet Selects Nuance to Launch its AI-Powered Virtual Voice Assistant "Pepper"

SpiceJet today announced the launch of Pepper, the first bilingual, AI-powered virtual voice assistant in the Indian airline industry. Built on the advanced natural language understanding and call steering capabilities of Nuance Communications' Intelligent Engagement Platform, Pepper is able to understand customer requests over the phone without needing legacy touchtone or menu options. As a result, SpiceJet customers can simply communicate their intent directly to Pepper and the platform will automatically provide information and resolve queries through natural, human-like conversation in either English or Hindi.
