The telecommunications giant said that it’s investing €140 million in the current financial year. The company said, “SuperTOBi is a key initiative in Vodafone’s wide-reaching transformation of the customer experience.”&nbsp; 
SuperTOBi has the ability to understand complex questions and reply quickly. It has the ability to break down lengthy sentences and phrases compared to old chatbots that only answer simple questions. SuperTOBi gives a personalized experience and gets involved in natural conversations. If the AI chatbot can’t answer a question, it will transfer it to a human customer service agent.

SuperTOBi is powered by Microsoft Azure OpenAI and is available for Vodafone’s customers in Portugal and Italy. It will be available for German and Turkish customers starting this month. Additionally, the generative AI chatbot will be accessible in other countries during the year. The new AI chatbot is an upgraded version of its exciting virtual assistant, TOBi. TOBi has been operational in 13 countries across Europe and Africa and communicates in 11 languages.&nbsp; 
Portuguese customers are benefiting from SuperTobi. The rate of resolving customers’ enquiries from the first time has jumped from 15% to 60%, and customer satisfaction has increased from 14 to 64 points. The telecom company will add other customer journeys, such as billing.
