Gupshup Launches Conversation Cloud, Redefining Customer Engagement for the Conversational Era

Basic one-way messaging gives way to rich two-way conversations at scale; improves returns from advertising, marketing, and support investments for digital leaders

Gupshup, the conversational engagement pioneer, announced the launch of Conversation Cloud, a comprehensive suite of SaaS tools that are set to revolutionize business-to-customer interactions. AI-powered conversations represent the next major paradigm shift in user interfaces after web and app, and the Conversation Cloud provides businesses with the essential tools for customer engagement in this new era.

The Conversation Cloud consists of three key modules, Converse, Advertise, and Communicate, that enable conversational relationship management across the full customer lifecycle.

Gupshup Converse helps businesses build rich two-way conversational journeys across the customer lifecycle. Business users can leverage advanced no-code tools to configure customer journeys, bot flows, and auto-trigger contextual messages. Interactions across the customer funnel leverage Gupshup Customer360’s unified profiles based on customer attributes and real-time conversational events.

Converse also includes ACE LLM, Gupshup’s domain-specific large language model to build AI bots that can handle all kinds of natural language queries while operating within safety guardrails appropriate for a business conversation.
