Hey guys,

Over the past few weeks, I have been working on vatchai.com – a next-generation AI customer service agent. Designed to be available 24/7, it can dynamically scale according to your business needs and rapidly adapt to any training data you provide.

I'd really appreciate your feedback on this!

    Given this is the quality at launch, it's very impressive. I loved how authentic it sounded, however as another comment pointed out, the pauses seem excessively long. I do understand the reasons behind it (with the LLMs and processing times), but this is something you could actively look at working on because the goal is to make it sound more natural. Fantastic product, good luck with scaling and getting it to market!

    Listening to the example audio the pauses are fairly long and awkward. Having been forced to communicate with AI like this in a drive thru, I can say personally that it's painful enough to make me reconsider ever calling back; I've never been back to that drivethru.

    I would put a priority on making it far more fluid. Also important is the way it answers the call, which is completely lifeless and devoid of energy. Though I guess this matches the way most teenage workers answer the phone :)
