What is Salted CX?

4 min read

Salted CX is an AI-native customer-service and contact-center platform where AI agents, human agents, and external experts can operate customer conversations together.

Salted connects the work of handling customer interactions with the controls and evidence needed to improve that work. Depending on the account, channels, integrations, and deployment model, companies can use Salted to operate conversations directly or add selected Salted capabilities alongside an existing contact-center stack.

The Salted operating model

Operate conversations

AI agents can interpret customer requests, use knowledge, collect information, call connected systems, perform permitted actions, route work, and resolve eligible requests. Human agents can work in the same conversation environment when a person should guide or own the interaction.

Add human judgment without losing context

AI does not always need to disappear when a person becomes involved. A configured workflow can ask a human for guidance or approval, invite a specialist or external expert, or hand over the conversation. The human sees the conversation and customer context. When the human contribution ends, AI can continue where the workflow permits it.

Prove and improve outcomes

Salted connects operated conversations with automated and manual quality review, agent feedback, coaching, customer-journey context, Search, Ask, and analytics. This gives teams shared evidence for improving people, AI behavior, knowledge, policy, routing, and operational workflows.

How the product areas fit together

  • AI Agents are customer-facing automation that interprets requests, uses knowledge and tools, performs permitted actions, and operates conversations.
  • Live Conversations is the environment where AI agents, human agents, and external experts operate active customer conversations together. It is not only the interface people see; behind the interface, it coordinates conversation state, participants, routing, engagements, events, actions, handoffs, joining, leaving, and channel behavior.
  • Agent Desktop is the human workspace inside Live Conversations. It brings together the transcript, customer context, replies, information, actions, and controls needed to work the conversation. Authorized supervisors can also monitor ongoing AI-led and human conversations, open them without joining, and then join or take over when intervention is needed.
  • Automation logic controls what happens next in a customer conversation. It can combine rules, AI, workflows, and connected systems, then tell Salted which actions to perform. In Salted configuration and technical documentation, this automation logic is called Your Logic.
  • Quality Intelligence evaluates and improves service delivered by human agents, AI agents, and mixed human-AI workflows.
  • Conversation Intelligence uses Search, Ask, analytics, references, and customer-journey context to explain what happened and what should change.

Two common adoption paths

Operate conversations in Salted

Use Salted channels, Live Conversations, Agent Desktop, AI Agents, and connected automation logic as the operating environment for selected or all customer interactions.

Complement an existing contact-center stack

Connect conversations from existing platforms and adopt selected Salted capabilities for quality, coaching, analytics, customer journeys, or automation. The exact boundary depends on the customer's systems and migration plan.

What makes the operating model different

Salted supports more than a one-way bot-to-human handoff. Depending on the configured workflow, a person can contribute only the judgment that requires a human, take full ownership when needed, or return control to AI afterward. The same interaction can then be evaluated and used to improve the operation.

Availability and maturity

Capabilities, channels, and deployment modes vary by account and integration. A developer primitive, demo, private library, or planned capability is not automatically generally available to every customer. Use the relevant setup and reference articles to confirm current production availability, prerequisites, permissions, and limitations.
