Speech-to-Text Software Built for Indian Languages

Your QA dashboard says the call was clean. The transcript says otherwise. For most Indian contact centers running BFSI, e-commerce, or BPO operations, this gap is common. Mainstream speech to text software works well on American and British English. It stumbles the moment a customer switches to Hindi mid-sentence, speaks Tamil, or carries a strong regional accent.

What’s New at AceX AI Voice Agents: July 2026 Updates

Most latency numbers you see for voice agents aren’t what the customer actually feels. Most knowledge setups either bloat every prompt or go stale. Most TTS engines still mispronounce your own brand name. Here’s how we changed that. Latency Now Means What the Customer Feels Industry reporting typically tracks AI Infra Latency, the sum of STT Latency, LLM Latency, […]

Xtract in 2026: 4 New Capabilities for QA Teams

Most QA managers say the same thing about AI call analytics tools. They work, but you cannot see inside them. You cannot tweak a scoring rule without raising a ticket. You cannot tell if a transcript in Hindi got scored as accurately as one in English. Over the past five months, we have shipped a run […]

Why An Automated Call Routing System Decides Collections Recovery Rates

Two borrowers land in the same DPD bracket. One gets a routine reminder call. The other gets escalated by mistake and hangs up angry. Why does this keep happening? Most collections floors still route calls the same way for every case, round robin or by agent seniority. A DPD-1 reminder and a DPD-30 escalation are […]

BPO Cost to Start and Run a 50-Seat Call Center

What Is the BPO Cost to Start & Run a 50-Seat Call Center?

Most businesses estimating BPO cost start with one number: the per-seat license fee. That number goes into a spreadsheet, it looks manageable, and a decision gets made. Then the real bill arrives. At Acefone, we work with contact center operators and BPO founders across India every week. One pattern comes up consistently: the software subscription […]

AI BPO: The Industry Split Reshaping Outsourcing in 2026

Is the BPO industry disappearing because of AI? No, that’s the wrong question. The real shift is that the AI BPO market is splitting into two camps. One side treats AI as the way it delivers work, from day one. The other side still sells seats and shifts, hoping the old playbook holds a little longer. The gap between […]

What Is a Conversational AI Agent in 2026?

Ask ten people what a conversational AI agent is, and you will get ten different answers. That’s the problem most businesses are facing right now. While your board wants an agentic AI budget line for 2026, your tech team is still debugging last year’s chatbot. Gartner just placed agentic AI at the peak of inflated expectations on […]

Conversational AI Analytics for Voice Bots: How to Close the QA Loop

Your voice bot answered 40,000 calls this month. Did it do a good job? Most contact center teams cannot answer that with confidence. They know call volume. They know average handling time. They do not know how many bot conversations ended in frustration, confusion, or a customer quietly deciding to leave. This is the black […]

If your team is still dialing outbound campaigns from a regular 10-digit mobile number, you’re not just risking poor connect rates. You’re risking a TRAI compliance violation. Every telemarketing, collections, or outbound sales lead in India has felt the squeeze: connect rates dropping, numbers getting flagged as spam, and increasingly strict regulatory scrutiny from the Telecom Regulatory Authority of […]

Best IVR Service Providers in India (2026): Buyer’s Guide & Comparison

If you’ve started shortlisting IVR service providers in India, you’ve probably noticed the category doesn’t sit still anymore. Legacy on-premise vendors, cloud-native platforms, and AI-augmented systems are all competing for the same budget line, and the feature lists are starting to blur together.
