Our take

In the rapidly evolving landscape of digital transformation and eCommerce, businesses are locked in fierce competition, elevating the significance of customer experience. This places considerable strain on customer support teams to deliver exceptional services while managing costs. The solution to this challenge lies in AI-powered digital support automation.

Ultimate provides a no-code automation platform capable of automating up to 60% of support workloads. With a focus on NLP-powered technology, Ultimate has given itself a strategic edge. Its conversational AI is available in 109 languages, consistently positioning the company as a top contender in G2.

The onset of 2022 markets a string of successes for Ultimate, including a record-breaking first half, the appointment of a global customer success executive, and ongoing product innovation. Impressively, the company achieved a 166% growth in new brand partnerships year-on-year, securing major deals with influential names like Zoopla, Get Your Guide, iCard, and Conekta. Now the company is focused on expanding its presence in the US, while also securing even more strategic partnerships.
