TaskUs is building on its deep expertise and more than 10 years in the AI field to provide tailored customer service solutions that quickly meet the growth, scale, and transformational goals of today’s enterprise. AssistAI arrives at a critical time when GenAI has jumped to the top of the business agenda as an innovation driver and way to deliver a better customer experience.

According to CB Insights, tech decision-makers plan to spend between $15K to $5M on large language models (LLMs) annually. TaskUs is currently offering these capabilities to its 150+ client base. With partnerships at some of the world’s biggest technology companies like AWS and Zendesk, TaskUs is bringing the power of people, technology, and agility together to build GenAI-powered, human-made solutions that exceed customer expectations, empower employees, and exponentially reduce costs while driving significant improvements in both productivity and client satisfaction.

“We are still at the early stages of the GenAI revolution,” said Bryce Maddock, Co-Founder and CEO of TaskUs. “Businesses are asking us how GenAI can positively impact their operations. By building and integrating safe, proprietary AI like AssistAI that incorporates the human touch, TaskUs is helping answer this question, enabling customer service teams to deliver better interactions more efficiently.”

Last year, TaskUs announced MoneyLion Inc. (“MoneyLion”, NYSE: ML) as the inaugural TaskGPT partner. Since deploying TaskGPT and AssistAI, MoneyLion has used the tools to optimize its customer service capabilities, helping drive impactful reductions in handling time and increasing customer satisfaction (CSAT) scores.
